:wacko: My 87 F150,351W, 5.8L has been giving me a lot of problems.The guy that had it before me was an ass who knew less about trucks than he thought. The last time I drove it (Oct. 31, 04) my battery died and my starter wouldn't engage. When I tried to use a voltmeter to narrow down where it was drawing resistance and I found that the fuse for the turn signals was the only thing drawing resistance. This made sense to me because I had trouble with the turn signals when I drove it. The switch would pop up but the signals would not come on and I had to keep pushing it back down. Does anyone have the skematic for the steering colum?I have already re-wired the wires under my tailgate and I have yet to replace the altenator and the starter(both are 20+ yrs. old.)
My truck has a brand new battery as of a few months ago and it drains while it sits,off, and I don't know where else to go. I love my Ford but it is hard to keep level headed about it. Any help will be GREATLY welcomed. Thank you>
