I know on my 2.5L its on the top of the bellhousing. Should the same on the 4.0L

Check for spark. Make sure there is fuel pressure comming from the pump. Id check the relays. If they are going bad it could do that.

Put an ohm meter on your TPS to. It may have a dead spot. My 2.5 was like that. Under real light throttle like 5-10% it had a dead spot. Computer didnt know what to do.

For my oil In my 00 4.0 I run the castrol full syn in a 10w-30. (10w meaning the viscosity of the oil was tested at 0deg F. Had a viscosity reading of 10.) (30 being that the oil was tested at 190 deg F and had a viscosity reading of 30.) In my 86 comanche I run the 15w-40 rotella because of the zinc.

Exactly as tittle says. I'm looking for a tunneau cover for my 86 longbed comanche. Please let me know if you have one forsale or know of where to get one. I am located at school in western ohio and at home in central NH.

I hear ya with the parking man. Same at my school.

It will go in with some work. Thats what I have in the front of mine. If you want to keep the factory front suspention with coils and links you will need to fab up some mounts or buy some as I did. Aslong as it is not a wide track the width is perfect and you also have to make sure it is drivers side drop for the dif. Some of the waggys came with both. And just remember that the waggys are a 6 lug not a 5x4.5. Hope that hels you.

Thanks guys I realy appreciate it! I picked up my 3800 today! $400 with complete motor harnes computer and guage cluster off of a buddy. Lookin for a wcT5 now. ivwe found em pretty cheap just have to wait for the next paycheck :yes: One question though is how you did your motor mounts? Did you just make a crosmember for the front where the factory one was? Or did you use the damper mounts on the side?

Hey guys thanks! Thats perfect. I picked up my 3800 today. Planning on this for a winter project. Did a compression test on my 2.5 today at school and it read about 60psi in every cylinder. So its time for a swap. And sorry but I have been through enough of the beloved 9"s that I have lost what little faith I had in ford stuff.

haha I do have an 86. But I was planning on putting in a custom 3 core radiator anyway to make sure the 3800 stays cool. Hmm and I'm glad to here about the ax5 mine already needs a rebuild. How about an auto? is there and automatic that would work for this? My truck doesnt see a whole lot of street and if it does its mostly just around town. Only has 78,000 on it. It mostly gets trailerd to the trails and back more than it gets drivin there.

So i've done a bit of researching and have kind of been able to come up with a conclution. my question is if anyone knows if the Ax-15 or ax-5 tranny or even the autos will fit a 3.8L v6 out of a pontiac. I can get a hold of a rebuilt 3.8L supercharged farely easly and am looking to replace my very tired 2.5 in my 86. Any feed back would be great.

This is a bit off subject but just out of curiosity where are you going to school?

I know! i wish i wasn't in college and had money! Would make a great daily drive on some 33's!

I love mine i couldnt go without it now. I know with mine and my dads we can take the actual like deck peice that controls everything and move it from the unit in my truck and bring it inside to a boom box. My dad actauly has mounting kits in 3 of his trucks ( 2 work trucks and his DD) and he just moves the radio peice backand forth between what hes driving and the boom box he has in the garage. its a great investment!
