Hey guys thought i would introduce myself. I joined another ford forum and i didnt have that welcome feeling lol. i posted on there because of my MPG and trying to get one answer to a post takes a week . but anyways i own a 1990 ford f250 XLT 4x4. Shes powered by the 5.8W motor with and auto trans. nothing else special about her. bought her for 1750 with 101k miles. This is my first ford and so far shes been treating me ok, not the best but ok. I have a couple problems with the truck that im working out and will be posting on here at some point. dont want to make too many threads at once some forums dont like that . i use her for my handyman company so shes already pulled some heavy loads for works with no problems at all. here are some pictures from the day i bought her.





her tune up was a pain in the *** man

 

Welcome to the site!

 

Welcome! Wish i had an old truck like that, pretty sweet!

 

Welcome. I had an 89 F250 reg cab. 351W with a zf5 manual trans. It was a tough truck.
Hope yours treats you well.

 

damn thats a cool truck!!

 

That is a clean, sharp looking truck for a 1990. Low mileage and good price to boot! Good score!

 

Nice truck! Welcome to the site. Enjoy your stay and try not to spend too much money!

 

thanks for the welcome guys. and freekyFX4 ive spent the passed two days trying to get my ac done im already 200 into it . a few hours ago we flushed the system, installed a new compressor, new accumulator. we got it all together hooked it up to the machine it added the oil and the freeon started the truck and the compressor and about 20 seconds pass and all we hear is a loud pop and a hose flying around the engine bay....... the @#&^ing hose to the orifice tube flew off spewing oil all over the hood and engine bay. turns out that the lock spring must have just been rusty and turned to dust. so thats about 100 bucks lost in oil and freeon in about 20 seconds. ive been trying for the passed hour trying to find the damn lock spring and i cant find one anywhere to buy. anyone know where i could get one by any chance???
