- Picked up this Ford bullnose dually on the cheap. She's got the 400 in her with a C6 auto trans. Also has a very generous Stal utility body on it. Hasn't run in many years, picked it up from a farmer. I have plans to use it as the channels primary repair/rescue vehicle. Still will, but we run into a slight problem at the end......think the repair rig is going to need.....repair. Yay me! My channel is for entertainment purposes only. Please don't repeat my shenanigans however epic they may be. Enjoy

I enjoy your show I wish thay were longer keep going and I'll keep watching thank you.
When I was a kid my dad made a "bug deflector" for our 85 Crown Vic Wagon. It was about a foot and a half tall, it looked more like a deer deflector haha.
Brilliant! I'll be getting new plastic for it myself. It is vintage correct! Lol. Dont know why but it stands out on that hood. Ill have some Lincoln mark 4's and 5's coming to the channel with some other land boats as well. Our Crown Vic wagon was blue with fake wood paneling. Small world!

Thank you for your kind words! Trinidad? That is awesome! We will have Ford's, chevys, and Chrysler's, and much much more in the future. Welcome!😊✌🚛
Nice that it has a 11 foot service box. My f350 only has a 9 foot box.
When I first saw it in person I realized wow that's a lot of storage! Them extended boxes are a little harder to locate. Very excited to have it in my fleet. Have much plans for it on the channel. Stay tuned!
u are welcome sir and God bless you
Made my morning!
This is a great video. Thanks for posting
I just subscribed to your channel cause I love your sense of humor and knowledge that your giving us plus step by step on how to repair it as well as the tips along the way.
Dude I absolutely love service trucks my dad is going one actually
1980 was the first year for those seventh generation Ford F-series light duty pickups & not to forget the fullsize Broncos with that same body style & the medium duty F-series with that same cab design too. All of the light dutys were produced through 1986 but the medium dutys on the other hand were still in production up through 1999.
I was also shocked when I realized the C-6 transmission was still produced clear to 1996 for some very specific applications.
@@SwedeMachine today I very seldom see any of those seventh generation Ford F-series pickups & fullsize Broncos with that same body style on the roads. I do still see a lot of the medium duty trucks on the roads tho.
Why Are All Vehicle’s Referred To, As She? 😀 Compatibility! / Parts!! 1980 She Sounds Great! 🏆
Hi Chris! Okay, I had to pause to brag on PB Blaster. I have a few stories about that stuff saving my hide. Now back to our feature presentation. Pause No. 2...A couple of days ago, I was watching Jeff Bradshaw (YT channel "ElderlyIron") lift out a 59 GMC manifold. Since he had an injured back, he used his cherry picker to pull that beast. I only mention this because I have already ruined my back and I really don't want a stand-up guy like you to do it too.
I am a subscriber to Jeff! Fun fact we both live in the Pacific Northwest. I saw his car accident aftermath video. That was messed up. I’ll trying to use a lift from now on. My back is already aged more than what I actually am. I know I’ll be in trouble when I’m older. I’m looking for a hoist crane for this channels service rig as it already had one before it was sold to me. I admire Jeff, his ingenuity and determination to still turn a wrench! Bless that man😊💯🏁
@@SwedeMachine Small world! Of all my current subscriptions, he is the oldest followed by Rick Maylender's Classic Truck Rescue. He lives out your way as well. I think what your doing with your channel fits in with those guys perfectly but at the same time, you have a unique way of presenting that I really like.
Well......I am......uh........unique.........ha ha!
كلامك مرة كثير أنت ياخوي 🤞🏼
I have an old bull nose from the same year but with a 300 L6 engine and I am trying to rebuild it but here in Venezuela it costs a lot. For now I need a new carburetor and I think it has some broken rings since it leaks oil through the dipstick, with everything and that that old bull has incredible strength! I hope one day to finish it, Greetings from Venezuela
Oh man that’s awesome! It is a shame it costs so much down there. But that’s the good thing about our American rigs if they’re old enough they’ll just keep going😊🚛👍🏼
Saludos desde México buen contenido
Gracias!✌🏼
В бардачке "Килька в томатном соусе" это avangard. 😉😚👍
Keep the videos coming i have sub
Will do. Thanks and welcome!
I've seen some hillbilly mechanics before, but you really take the cake.
Thank you much😊
If your truck has a 400 init, redo the bottom end, after 50,000 miles the mains go bad.
I had thought about revamping the 400 that's in it......but I was able to acquire a complete motor and mating transmission at an affordable price ssooo we will be doing a motor swap after the Toyota is on the road. This motor probably has over 200,000 miles on it so I'm pretty sure it all needs rebuilt. Good to know thanks!
Hi brother, how did you adjust the eddiyprock Cap. ??
Most new carbs, such as this one, are tuned from factory enough to start the engine. After engine is warm adjust the 2 mixing screw on the front one at a time. Turn in clockwise until engine runs rough, then back the screw out about 1/4 turn or until engine runs smooth. That should get ya pretty close boss
Really discouraging I just bought one with carb issue
Yes, but It will live again👍🏼
Had a 79 F100 ....it had a 351M 400 with a 3 on the tree i dropped $4000 in it put 200000 on it before smacking a damn oak tree goin deer huntin
Oh ouch! I’m sorry! Glad you got good use out of it👍🏼
460 4 BBL?
originally a 400. But we are in the process of swapping to a 460
Man, how long does an oil filter have to stay on there for to have that kind of grease/grime accumulation. The ford 400, an engine so crappy mold grows inside of it...LOL
100% lol. That's why it's getting an upgrade😊
@@SwedeMachine My grandparents had a 77 F150 trailer special with a 351M in it back in the day. It was thrashing junk in 79,000 miles. My grandfather took good care of his cars as well. No thanks lol.
Completely umderstand! Yeah the 351m/400 was a fail...no doubt. That's why I'm throwing the big 460 in the service rig. Many more reliable miles on the 385 platform😊
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💯💯😇😇🙏🙏😊😊😊😊😊
I pull the 400 out find a Ford 1973-77 311 Windsor and use that engine they last 400,000 miles

Бля мотор работает как наш ЗИЛ 130
there is one thing i know about its carbs. the carb you had on there was bad because you installed the same brand carb labeled another name same basic carb don't play us as fools
That was satire my friend. Yup it’s all the same. Given that this pick up sat in a field for over a decade and I never heard it run, I wasn’t going to fool around with a grimy carb that might have had problems.
the m series ford engines 351 and 400 are best utilized as boat anchors take some advice from an old master tech please don't show people how to set themselves up for disappiontment and waste money i spent my entire fifty plus year career trying to change the image that idiots with wrenches cast on the business of auto repair i never looked for work or spent a penny on advertising people found me and i made a good living doing it
