5.8L is loved for being reliable, not winning races. Well done on the find itself and revive. I'm excited to see that cowboy cadillac!
Yeah, why does he hate the 5.8 so much? I love mine. Literary the most reliable truck I've owed.
Sold my 89’ f250 and regret it. 5.8 got like 12 mpg and was slow as hell but would pull a house down haha great truck miss it
Love the videos man, you popped up on my feed and I have to give you props for making the cars run despite the issues! Much love from Israel 🤘🏼
Awesome burnout! This is my favorite style of Ford trucks
Keep us posted on the status of this rig
Awesome channel!! Love the content please keep uploading
Minty burnout, keep up the good work!
Awesome vid can't wait till the next
Battery trays normally rust out because of battery chemicals/acids. Very common.
@@richlaw1965 We’ve had over 200 of these trucks in the last 15 years, I’ve never seen that happen to one of them before. Maybe I was just lucky?
@@GasGuzleroh it happens i guarantee it i own a 95 it started to happen
@@GasGuzlerI own a 89 that’s a southern truck and the only rust is the battery tray
If that were out in AZ, we'd probably rip the rotted front bumper off, replace it with a nice, low-profile winch bumper, clean up and weld some reinforcement back into the frame, and either run the bed or put a flatbed on it. Some cleanup and that looks like it'd be great offroad doing some overlanding. Wiring can be a pain, but isn't too bad once you get into the headspace for it.
It's 2WD, not much good for offroading.
@@colinl9018 Eh, you'd be surprised. For things like overlanding and a lot of 'point a to point b' trails you'd be surprised how little 4wd is truly necessary. Good to have, obv, but not as important as a lot of people think (mostly because when people picture any kind of offroading, they think of near-vertical boulder crawls and such)
dont underestimate the 351 it is good
Good score!! Worth the effort!
At least one cylinder is not firing
Just found your channel, really gives me motivation to try and do some builds!! Any new videos coming soon?
@@lukeswall5999 That’s awesome! Glad you came across my channel. I’m hoping to upload more videos soon, I live away at school so it’s becoming tough, also dealing with the end of a 3 year relationship so that paid a nice toll on me.
@@GasGuzler hey buddy, I’m really sorry to hear that. I think we’re around the same age (I just turned 19), never really had a good long term relationship before but I can imagine it’s really crushing, just hold your head up, because everything happens for a reason. I just recently got rid of my OBS (95 F150 XLT 5.0) had 198k on it, a beautiful red interior and overall really clean. Unfortunately I got screwed on the title, had a new TC put in and it blew the transmission, so I had to let it go, really hurt to do but I love these trucks and would love to have another someday. Before that i had a duramax for a couple of years, and i’ll just say i won’t be doing that again lol! But I love Fords, Toyotas and Dodge Cummins. Hope everything works out well for you brother, and I’ll stay tuned, if you ever wanna talk I went and followed your Insta also. Take care!
@@lukeswall5999 Thanks man, means a lot!
This thing needs a good set of plugs an wires .
An when engines set spark plugs do go bad when setting long periods of time. Put new plugs in an I bet it will run good unless the engine is hurt. Also new fuel
You are like the "Michael Reeves" of automotive mechanics on yt
Dam just put fresh plugs an wires on it an fresh fuel . Your just hurting the engine worse by running it like that
New subscriber here , love the OBS, but man I love the Bullnose, which do you prefer?
@@johnny30127 I’ve always been an OBS guy, they’re the last “old school” truck that Ford made but still had some modern features.
302/351 efi one of the best engines ever made lol what are you talking about.good video tho
@@brentunderwood7600 I should probably start specifying, the 5.8L platform itself wasn’t that bad, Ford just really restricted what the engine was capable of. The biggest difference between the 5.8L and the 5.0L is that the 5.8L made a bit more torque and a tiny bit more power, but for an extra 49 cubic inches you’d expect it to be a bit better. They were built with E7 heads which had terrible flow and performance, and I’ve also heard that the engine was too tall so the lower intake had something like 90 degree runners to make it fit. Not to mention that the factory cam was extremely restrictive as well. And because most of them were in 3/4 ton trucks, they were treated like a 7.5L or 7.3L diesel and overworked which would consequently overheat them often and crack heads and manifolds. I’ve driven both the GM 305 and 350, and it’s night and day difference. Both GM motors make really good power, I feel like Ford missed out on the opportunity to make the 5.8L a powerhouse.
@@GasGuzler I agree if what you are going for is power, but for me honestly as long as it can do the work, I just want reliability. I live in NC, so most I come across have pretty much no rust, so in the 3/4 ton's, its a solid truck with enough strength to do what I need it to do, and if I ever really need a diesel I will go get me one. And honestly the older I get, I really enjoy slower vehicles lol, that's why I love my 90's trucks. They just force you to slow down and really enjoy them, everyone else pretending they are driving a race car can just on around lol. I like your videos, just recently came across your channel.
Maybe give us a lesson on OBS and LED's, . the forums have me scared to death of using LED's.
The wiring on these are super easy.
My dream is to buy an old square body 👌🏼
Dude make longer videos
Sweet
Yep
Cool VID
Yes sir
Do I spot a four door truck in the background?
@@obsfordkustoms Maybe 🤫
@@GasGuzler ohhh boy I'm excited for that one
Plugs are fowled or distributor cap.
Can i have your pile or chime modules? or just 1...
Put some decent fuel in it and run it for a bit and that would go another 50,000 I bet
is the lift new?
@@Jacksongamma No, it was already installed in the garage when my parents bought the property. It definitely needs to be replaced though, it’s quite sketchy.
Why wouldn’t it?
🛻🛻🛻🛻🛻🛻🛻🛻👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Can u send me the link fir the fuel pump I need one for my front tank
If you go to LMC Truck they will probably have one on there
Please.
LOL sorry
It's crazy to what someone's video and doesn't know that it is missing real bad need spark plugs and wires
@@Backyardmechanicbywilliam That was not the case with this truck, it didn’t need either of those things. The spark plugs were perfectly fine. It ran when it was parked, and spark plugs can’t foul themselves while sitting unless moisture gathers in the cylinder, and in that case they wouldn’t necessarily foul, they would just rust/corrode. Spark plugs almost never need to be replaced if a vehicle is running with a good AFR, the combustion usually keeps them clean. Because this engine is fuel injected, assuming it was running as it should when it was parked, I guarantee the plugs were perfectly fine. Wires are a possibility, they could’ve been chewed by mice over the years or deteriorated but considering the truck cleaned up the more it ran, that clearly wasn’t the case since plug wires can’t fix themselves.
Yeah I know sorry
👍👍👌👌 You are an amateur videographer. Put the camera on a tripod and leave it there, instead of waving it around randomly.
