    Motorcraft 2150a

    I know this has been beat to death in other posts, but I don't want to patch together this info from all of the different responses. I tried googling a vacuum diagram for my particular setup but didn't find what I needed. I have a '72 Commando with a mid 80's rebuilt engine, no pollution...

    MC2150 swap

    Can someone please direct me to a thread or tell me what to do with the electric feedback solenoid on a MC2150? I can't find much info on what others have done, and the searches have too many threads to sort through. Block it off, leave it on...? This goes on a '72 Commando, so I have no...

    AM Radio

    I bought an original AM radio for my '72 Commando, but the dash was cut for a DIN unit. Does anyone know where I can find a pre-made piece I can use to put the original radio in that looks somewhat decent? I know the original fit right in the sheet metal, so that isn't going to happen. I...

    Hood Hinges?

    I have been to several forums with little luck. '72 Commando with the hood popped up on the windshield end. Is this weak springs or do the hinges need replaced? The pins on the hinge assemblies are really loose in the holes. Are these hinges compatible with any FSJ? I can align the hood...

    Head rebuilding...101

    Okay, so I remembered to put everything in order and label it and number it and so forth, except for the rocker pivots. They have angled oil guides. For example , the pivot retainer for #1 cylinder can go back on left-ways or right-ways. Question is, do I line up the oil guides, or cross...

    Head Identification

    '72 commando with EFI intake manifold but with the Carter carb...okay...think it's from somewhere around '82...not for sure. Went to put new plugs in it, but Advance Auto gave me 13/16" plugs and they don't fit. I had 5/8" plugs in it, but didn't check when I went to get the new ones...

    Manifold heater?

    I have searched the forum, but there are 500 hits that come up dry as far was I was willing to look. My '72 Commando has the original 258, but the intake is newer, with blocked off emissions ports. The manifold heater is missing. I have a huge problem spitting raw and not fully burned product...
