I have a random lean miss at idle that I haven't isolated yet. It's a vacuum leak somewhere, I'm sure, but I just haven't found where yet. I haven't really tried, though. I work on cars for a living, I really don't have much desire to do the same thing when I'm not working. lol.

Well lets start with my 84 2wd. cam lobe got knocked off, needed some money so I sold the heads, intake, headers, and flowmasters. Had to do that to a pickup with an excellent body except for the dent in the hood some punk a$$ kicked hit with a rock and busted the windsheild but thats new. So I have new door panels dash cap, seat looks amazing for being original 84, paint is great and no rust on a truck that doesn't have a top end. So now it's for sale

My 02, had to put a slave cylinder in it, oh and the alternator went out 5 days after my warranty expired, other than that I love the thing

Leaking oil pan, Rear main seal gone, rust coming in to play, Power steering pump making wierd noise, but working fine, Check engine light comes on when going uphill, surging at 40mph on level ground, 13 mpg sucks!! and I can't pull a real trailer (stupid 3.08 gears ).

Cliffy has the following problems:

1. slight oil leak. Gasket appears to have migrated out from between the block and pan for about a 2" area.
2. weak fan clutch
3. the shift boot is broken. (manual transmision) I have a new one but haven't installed it yet.
4. occasionally a slight grind between 1st & 2nd gears on cold mornings.
5. paint starting to bubble on hood. looks like a bad repaint job.

not bad for 10 years and almost 150K miles!

Gee, I feel lucky, just bought a 95 F150, 111K with the following problems:

1) Both rear springs broken, rear shocks are just shells of their former selves (being fixed today if the damn salvage yard get's the damn springs to me like they promised).

2) Oil pan is becoming swiss cheese, dealer is replacing Tuesday.

3) Small rust holes on the rockers about 1' from the cab corners.

4) The running board support is rusted out on the passenger side (factory boards, having trouble finding the part)

1990 F-150 5.0 Auto 2WD 83K miles.

1.Both windows dont roll down
2.center console lock broke and wont open
3.radio wont turn on
4.extexnsive rust on hood

6.fuel gauge doesnt work on front tank
7.right now it wont start. not getting any spark anywhere, already changed coil, control module and distributor.
8.when closed the doors are loose and you hear a constant whistle driving down the road.
9. and gas milage sucks
