Can anyone explain the relationship of altitude or rain on performance? About a year ago my B2 suddenly started bucking badly (1st gear) in hot weather/sea-level, but I have noticed it is better in the rain. I am at sea-level. Recently, I was quite happy with it's performance and pick up at only...

Woe is me, I got rid of a good Ranger because of the same symptoms, only to find out it had been a bad alternator when I swapped THAT over to my Bll! I knew the brushes were good, I didn't draw a connection between diodes and heat. I NEVER associated it with the alt, as it only ran poor when...

In my 88 Ranger, the wires came 'loose' about twice a year in the steering column (found this out after replacing the HL switch and having the problem recur), so hubby eventually got a wire 'receiver' from the junkie and spliced it in (inside the column)to hold the whole thing tightly. The old...

I get about 560km's (350miles) on my 88 Bll also, but that's short runs all day and gear blocking. j6boomer, I'd like to know what YOU'RE doing, 'cause by your calc's, I'm shy by,what, 200km's or 120 more miles? How do you do that? At 1.31-1.41 litre-Lord almighty!

Hoping someone can help... have a 89 B2 and there;s no power to the washer fluid pump. Any tips on where/how to wire in a toggle? I'm not electrical, and can't get it to run when I tap into an open 30amp fuse area under the hood- should I try under the dash? When I connect directly to the...
