    Ford starter no bendix

    Thought the same and tried that. Starter is out of the truck. I’ll try putting it back in and got a 26r for the 8n I can test.

    Ford starter no bendix

    Festiva has a group 35, hooking it straight to the battery via jumper cables. The rebuilding shop closed several years ago, not seeing any KC yet. More of a long term toy. Slowly restore over time. Yeah that's what I'm doing, straight to the starter.

    Ford starter no bendix

    I took apart the 86 starter and cleaned/oiled it. Also sanded the brushes. Kinda surprised didn't work after that. Might have to just buy new.. or scrap the truck. I'm border line right now with how much it's fighting me.

    Why Honda is no longer Toyota's equal in the used car market.

    Mom and dad has a 2011 CRV with little over 100k. Dads asked her several times if she wants something else and I never seen mom stuck to a vehicle before. She’ll be turning 70 next month and probably drive it till she can’t anymore. I’ve been trying to get a wheel cap for itand I’ve never seen...

    Gas Price pics

    Yeah it's busy, difficult in big vehicles. Seems like every time I go there it's a pump issue or the pumps are so slow it takes 2-3 times longer to fill. Last time I filled up with gas but the pump errored out so had to use another for the diesel cans. If it wasn't for the .10/.25 for diesel I'd...

    Jumped off throwing the mower in neutral.. well supposed to be. For some reason the mower decided to have two reverses. Trying to get the ants off of you and mower going back and forth since there was no other option. Finally gave up and it backed into the new utility pole. Lol Would of been...

    What are you working on today?

    Worked on the 8n, pto lever was stuck and wouldn’t fully engage or disengage. Was stuck engaged when I got it but a little use loosened it up some. Pulled the shaft but doesn’t look twisted or bent which is the usual cause. Came right out and back in so not sure just doesn’t want to slide on it...
