Clutch question
Hi,
Quick question -
1986 f150
4.9
3spd with o/d
Is this normal - Truck parked on slight hill left in fisrt gear without e-brake engaged will start to slip and lurch down the hill a few inches at a time.
Will do the same thing if its left in reverse.
do I need a new clutch or is this worse
?

It just means that your e-brake is not engaging and your truck is slowly rolling forward in gear which is normal.
You might try putting it in reverse until you get the e-brake adjusted or fixed. It might help with the rolling because of the ultra low gear.

Back in the day, you could be sitting in the car on a slope and the car would slip back slightly.
