I have a 1980 f150 with a 302 Windsor and a C6 transmission. It keeps blowing starters every other week since I've gotten it, I just replaced the flexplate two weeks ago and everything was good in till 3 days ago it started grinding again, and now the starter went again.

 

Welcome, can you better describe a "blowing" starter? How many? All the same way?

Exactly how are the starters failing? Electrically? Mechanically? Be specific.

Where are you buying them, and what brand are they?

Why do you ask a question and not log on to see if you received a response?

I call people who do this TROLLS.

I won't even bother to give a response...

 

No, that's not "trolling", and you DID post a response.

YOUR post is closer to "trolling" than his question.

 

So you & I are Trolls now? lol

And I did NOT give an answer to his question!


WHAT DO YOU CALL WHAT boyd19034 DID?
His last activity was still on the 9th of January.

I wasn't going to say anymore about it until you typed in your two cents...

 

He posted a description of a problem with his F150 on a website designed to help people fix problems with their F150s. Nothing trollish there. He's busy, and hasn't posted in the past week. Nothing trollish there, even if it takes him a year or 5.

Your post was unhelpful in any way, didn't address the topic of the thread, and served only to annoy the original poster & everyone else. Pretty much the definition of a troll.

 

they where failing Mechanically, well at first when i got the truck i was told it was a 351 but it could be a 302, so when i went to get a starter i asked if they were the same starter and the dude said yea, but he was wrong, its kinda my fault for not looking more in to it, i picked up a 302 starter and its been fine, and yes im busy.
