Re: No rear brakes

Have you tripped your pressure differential switch on your brass metering/regulating valve? if you do not have the light switch hooked up, check it with a multi-meter or simple test light hooked up between power and ground .

Re: Ford 223 PCV Conversion

The best way to upgrade is get all the ford parts to do so There are a lot of folks replacing 223's in favor of larger engines. If you do not have a auto dismantler near you, and nobody steps up here, try vintage ford sixes. I am not sure but believe the factory PCV just bolts into the spot the road...

Re: Intermittent wipers

thanks Tom I did all the clocking and testing and it works great, however it is really sloppy when installed. how would you go about doing that on a 61? Is there a bolt on bracket that works with the old linkage?

Re: Intermittent wipers

Re: neutral safety switch

I am sure the electrical gurus will chime in. I have been wanting to do the same for my manual t-5, my idea was to interrupt the signal to the solenoid so the starter can not turn unless the clutch depressed ... if the starter won't turn the engine can not start at a dead stop even if the ignition c...
