I have a 2bbl carb on my 2.8 in my pinto. The tag on the carb reads d7ye-aa. Looking at Rockauto I find listings for several carb kits. One has the same d7ya-aa as my carb. Another carb kit has d7ye-ba. My local parts has the d7ye-ba in stock and can't get the -aa. What would the difference be...

TIL that I'm supposed to pull on the wires when disconnecting automotive connectors. That goes against what I learned about household appliances and extension cords. Found this out in my new to me 1980 Ford Car Shop Manual - Electrical. Edited to replace "cords" with "wires"

Wondering if this has been done before? I have an a4ld that was rebuilt not long before the 2.9 shit the bed. And I'm picking up a Pinto with a 2.8... I want to use the a4ld because of the overdrive and lock up torque convertor. Articles in the tech section describe how to use a switch for the...

Made a verbal agreement to buy another 1977 Pinto. It's looks to be in much better shape than the other I brought home a couple months ago. This one has a 2.8liter and I think an auto. Didn't actually check... If it's stick then great. If auto I want to know if I can put an a4ld from my '86...

Any way to join without giving all my personal info? I need to sell a bunch of stuff. Some Ranger related, some not.

So I was driving down the road and saw a black, slightly bigger than football size object. Cranked a U and found what looks to be at least a 5hp 240V motor. Other the an external fan bent a bit, and some road rash, it looks to be new. Still has blue grease on the shaft. Unfortunately it is a...

Going thru my magical bus of "stuff". I never know what I'll find... And remembering a recent thread on difficulty of finding the distributor for the 2.8 I thought I would start a thread on identifying these dizzy. Mine;

My little Sunfire was starting to get a little miss, and the mileage was dropping. So I decided to change my sparkplug for the first time since owning the car. There is 430,000 kms on it. I put about 50,000 on it myself.

I've been searching for a candidate for my 2.3 manual fuel injected engine I picked up in trade a couple years ago. Found this Pinto with no motor or gas tank for C$250.00. It's going to be either a 1/4 mile or rally car. Haven't decided yet. Won't be working on it until spring tho as I have no...

I need to have a thread where I can keep track of my various projects. Mainly so I can see what I accomplish over time. So this is it... Feel free to put in your comments and observations. Try not to go off rail too much... For the last 2 days I've been puttering at making a electrical panel...

I'm not sure if I posted this van before and I dont feel like looking...I'm tired. I bought this a number of years ago for $1,000. It's a 1980 Grumman body on a c30 Chevy frame and running gear. A tired 350 on propane. I loaded it on my flat deck and a friend towed it back to my place. That was...
