Having a tough time with this one, pretty decent at electrical troubleshooting, I have the ford FSM/EVTM for 1990 F series trucks. (mines an 88, but close enough) I have to be missing something here. Pinpoint tests told me to replace wiper motor, did that and it performs same as original motor...

Ok, so. replaced this steering column once already, the guts in this one are falling apart again, specifically the ignition switch actuator parts. I have to tilt the steering column down to start the truck, the parts bind up otherwise. it's not long for this planet. Do i just try to find a...

Had a problem with idle quality on a 1988 ford bronco with the 4.9L inline 6 (c6 auto trans) which kept stumpin me. it would when cold stall out the first start attempt or two, give it a bit of gas and it would eventually idle ok after a minute. after warming, the computer seemed to have trouble...
