I'd love to meet you sir, doubt your courage to come off in person like that. The internet has braven men like you to think they are both smart and bold. The internet lets you think you know all the anwers once someone else provides the correct response, passive knowlege the internet.

This old truck is not my passion, or my passtime. It was just one project, many ago. You own this forum. I'm sure. While you will be here daily- likely, gosh have other things to do.

Had a question. needed answer. Jowiler didn't provide it. You call idiot from afar, after the fact, would lack courgage to say face to face. While you are here making purpose in your life, have so so many things to do.

Interesting, you live only about forty minutes away...

later.. or do you really want a person to person meeting to give me just a small piece of your mind. I travel. I can be SUCH a great listener before my final response.

Wayne

Logged into forum once to ask question, thereafter, only responding to emails Thread is dead from my end. Had truck that would not shift, it now shifts. Let this topic die. This so called IDIOT will be off fixing something else. IDIOT only because angry little man got insulted from being called for his internet rudeness. Suggestion; don't do it again. "Know it all" asked a question, and got little big man on forum smart *** remark empty of useful information. Truck was fixed without the lord of knowledge providing anything but a smart *** remark, day after in know it all's shop. How exactly did you help? None. So if thats what it takes to be an idiot, asking a question, getting no help from the little smart mouth man lord of knowledge, who later knew the anwer all along, we are all idiots before, during and after visiting this forum. Won't be at THAT OTHER FORUM, because I don't live in forums. I only visit for information. The internet is not where I live.

I want to be clear - did not complain of forum answers except from one forum personality. That of jowilker. Thanked all other responders. Jowilker is an internet ***.
Good spelling, good grammar and good sentence and paragraph structure make for such interesting reading...
And by the way, I live in Kernersville, NC, and I really don't think John was being a smart @$$ with his comment...

Simple Math

More emails

Simple Math,
jowilker couldn't answer the one simple shift question asked, could only proffer insult yet you have amassed more than 17000 replies. JoWilker obviously are on the computer alot, so not fixing vehicles. You are just a sad old flaccid softhanded man.
Very bold the contact mother thing and police department call. Not only are you not a good mechanic, you're a silly old fella. Your post is a upfront bluster call out and you planning to simply call the police.
More 17000 replies and youactually expect a forum first time poster with a question should take you serious following an insult about ewe gotta learn how to shift a 40 year old truck.
You are obviously a regular forum poster, and this is your life. WayneBurton Had life before shift question asked, still I have one.
, suggest you fix someting to know mechanical skills or are you are on a slippery path toward being just a FORUM mechanic, a dispenser of maintainably realted topics, interwoven with country down home jargons, information assimillated from forum participants. honed to filt scernario
But seriously; If this forum has IM capability, contact me that way. I'll give you my contact information as you request. Give you a cell # as you asked. No fear. My only request is you have your pacemaker charged and clean socks, undewear and medicine laid out and packed. and those adult diapers in your kit.. Beeper around kneck that calles service when you fall down and can't get up too.

Seriously, IM me. Email me a wayne.burton@us.army.mil My phone # AWAITS.

Meanwhile KILL this tread. Have other thinngs to do.

If you want to bring your sorry butt lick breath to Creedmoor, I am 3.5 miles off I-85 ex 191 and right on S. Main St. I am not hard to find at all.

I have a request for you please let me know when you want to come so that I can be at home and provide your mothers phone number, so the local PD will have a contact for the only one that might might care about your scum bucket sorry *** and want it back if you come here acting a FOOL.

Quote: ""Does the US Army know you are behaving as you are????
retired with 31 years active , my beahavor is legal and has been civil, yet are not required to follow political correctiveness. which germinates from the civilian sector.

This posting highlighted below has no procedure, so useable information, unless the reader must assumme snathing has tasks inbetween. In my first paragragh I indiated I had reverse and first gears by shifter and title said could not get second and 3d . I Explain maunal shifts validated. The scenario I was laying out was not a truck that had been driving and now had shifit problem due to cold weather, but WOULD NOT SHIFT TO 2 & 3d at all. Previousl owner (his mechanic) could not do it either, The tranny was rebuilt.
QUESTON WAS SPECIFIC. How to line up shifter for neutral initial fits. Was lamblasted by dry and possible falling apart linkage bushigs netted response ; they OK. Admitted collar worn and Reverse does not line to reverse switch. A column issue.

QUOTE
Wayne, First you have to learn to shift a 40 year old Ford.

Can you shift between R & 1? If no, go under the hood and ****** the arm at the fire wall upward, or go under the truck and get both arms on the tranny in the middle position.

Your question is coming up a lot lately and I suspect cold weather is adding to the mix.

Get the truck into 1st while in the cab, lift it up towards R while pulling the lever towards the steering wheel. Once it is in N let the lever drop towards the dash and then up into 2nd with a slight pull of the lever towards the wheel.

This is what I learned many years ago to be able to use a worn shifting system.

Don't sweat it guys, his crack will run out soon. He is a troll, came here looking to pick a fight, look at his first response.

I prolly shouldn't have led him on as far as I did, but things are a little slow.

Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas everyone.

I have learned an important lesson from this thread and thank everyone for teaching it.

The lesson is:
I must take my LITHIUM medication before reading threads. Does anyone here need some?

Troll! Ach du lieber! Calling him that...will stir the pot even more!

But...I agree with you...it's kinda slow 'round here.

first today: I don't need any lithium, valium or whatever. After dealing with clueless clucks and beetle-brained pinheads at Ford parts counters for 35 years, I'm battle-hardened.

As an add on.......This is a perfect example of what happens when 2 people don't take their meds as required.......

Responeding to emails

17236 post increased to 17237 post, again posting for empty information, post for sake of post, and to make importance in your life.

Don't post on this topic. Choose another. You have shown how assinine and rude you are, first by smarting off, then there after, calling idiot, and now suggesting TROLL. You seem to be a mean spirited old pathetic man.

This thread is dead on this end. John you're still an internet ***.

Stop posting on this topic, if you are good with it. Be the big moral man you suggest you are. If that is the case, then there will never be another email in my box.

Don't need to answer another. There has been no transfer of useful information, just increase of the number of posts for forum personalities.

It really simple to do guys, stop posting on this subject. Create anther topic and rant among yourselves.

May 2010 be your year.
