Customer brought in a 92 Ford Thunderbird with a drivers seat that won’t move, and half of the digital gauges aren’t lighting up.

First I diagnosed the drivers seat and found a faulty motor underneath the seat!

Then I proceeded to diagnose the gauges. I figured out the dimmer switch was working, then proceeded to remove the gauge cluster from the dash. Once I got the gauge cluster out I had to carefully disassemble it in order to find all the blown lights inside it!

But I lucked out and found 4 of the 6 bulbs burned!

By tomorrow she will be ready to go as long as I can get those little bulbs! Happy Monday folks! πŸ‘πŸ˜€πŸ‘

Just took this baby on her maiden voyage after 20 years of sitting! Only one little drip from the lower rad hose and a little seepage from the thermostat housing. But she made it to town and back! πŸ‘πŸ™‚πŸ‘

Well, after a few good scrapes and gouges, we have resurrected this 88 dodge W150 from its 20 year slumber!

I had to remove the distributor to change the pickup, I took the gas tank out and changed the fuel pump. Got her running really nicely then found a leaky frost plug, and a leaking heater core.
I have since fixed the frost plug and just looped the heater core hoses for now.
She’s definitely got more work to go in the future, but I’m very excited to drive this bad boy on the road for now! πŸ‘πŸ™‚πŸ‘

Got the gas tank out of the 88 dodge w150, so I can change that fuel pump!

It’s a good thing you can’t smell through pictures, because this thing smells like old kerosene πŸ‘πŸ˜‚πŸ‘

Update on the 88 dodge W150: Changed the pickup inside the distributor, gave her a good sniff of starting fluid and she fired right off for me!!
I’m so stoked to drive this truck! πŸ™‚

Now to figure out the fuel pump situation! πŸ‘

Customer brought in a 92 ford flareside nite edition! I’ve been alive for almost 28 years and I’ve never seen one in person!

Definitely have a pretty big puzzle on my hands, but hopefully with a little hard work, as long as the parts are good, we should be able to get her going and put a smile on this customer’s face! πŸ‘πŸ™‚πŸ‘

Been working on the 88 dodge w150.

Have power at the ecu, from the ecu to the asd relay. Have power at the fuel pump plug, when I jump the asd relay connector. But no sound in the tank from the pump.

So chances are I will be doing the fuel pump as well, but I’ve ironed out the no spark situation and what I’m left with is the pickup coil in the distributor; which I would say looks pretty crusty!
Happy Monday folks! πŸ‘πŸ™‚πŸ‘
