As the weather gets colder, the operating temperature of the engine will go down if the thermostat is stuck open. If the temp guage doesn't reach its normal position, it is probably just a bad thermo

My dad's 71 GMC 307/350 half ton had this setup stock from the factory (disk/drum no power). Seemed to work just fine. That might be a place to look for a donor master cylinder. Also would be a place

In later years, GM integrated the washer pump with the wiper motor, not real easy to use here. I think F**ds still use independent washer motors, similar to the one at the FLAPS. It won't take much o

If you have 220V available in your garage, think about a 220V gas/wire feed (Mig) welder. Miller makes a real good one. This will give you the range from thick structural metal to sheet metal. Look f

I don't think they went to electric temp guages until 56, so my guess is that your truck was converted at some time. Check the wire between the guage and the sensor. Guess is that it is broken and/or
