cold start ford tow truck, 460

[karatedavid]

You have better luck if you just hold the pedal and wait for her to fire then pumping like an idiot.

[lightnweight]

I like the part at 2:01 where something scares him and he goes to hide under the truck for a minute.

[NathansBackwoods]

Its a definitely 460, it has a 4 core radiator, that blocks too big to be a 351m-400.

[BUBBA5711]

is it for sale

[MrBarefootdriver]

Please do a cranking vid like this without shoes either barefoot or in socks,thanx so much in advance

[murraytractors345]

[TheOldcarlover]

I love your ford tow truck! mmm.. pump it baby.

[TylerSumsion10]

[TheOldcarlover]

I NEED TOWING ASSISTANCE

[ford9572]

That's a 460 Big Block with a 4 barrel carb I think, I have a 1977 27 foot Ford E-350 motorhome with a souprd up 435 hp 460 with a 1050 cfm Holley 4 barrel carb on it and dual 4 inch Flowmaster exhausts on it as well as tuned Hooker header manifolds, You'd think I was trying out for the Talladega 500 if you heard that thing!! I can go 65 mph up steep mountain passes with no problems!!!

[DocMartinVideos]

Your right on the 4 barrel, its a Holly. I remember being a kid and riding in it going to pick up cars and never once did it sound like it was straining to pull our haul. Recently someone broke a window out of it but there isnt anything to steal except an 8 track. Thanks for the comment !

[NDrLoR]

My '77 Mercury Grand Marquis with a 460 is harder to start than that after it sits overnight in the summer!

[tetra021]

MORE PUMPAGE!!!!

[tetra021]

[stillahillbilly66]

[98MustangGT46L]

[THOMASOAKMAN]

This 460 runs again? Its a ford, she will run for ever with care

[7072757679]

that's a super cooler radiator 4 core can because its round and so tall

[DocMartinVideos]

i diddnt know that, thanks !

[itscool1968]

so how did daves farm fix this truck?

[DocMartinVideos]

just by watching all of his how-to videos. I was able to learn and trouble shoot. I learned how to break a carb down and put it back together from watching his videos. So thanks to him she runs today !

[itscool1968]

glad to heare some positive feed back about daves farm sick of all the others cutting him down with this charge adn that charge aginst him most were never proven.

[jojocats2]

Ran great once you got it running.

[LawnWolf]

That looks to be a 360 or a 390. I had A F350 around that same year. It had a trash box on it and it was a great truck. I sold it only because I need a bigger truck. That old beast never let me down.

[09204418448]

i misread RUNS LIKE A BREAST

[rustynail1o2]

i mean a 454

[rustynail1o2]

my dad has a 91 u-haul with a 44. and it doesn't have the anoying tranni sound that the other uhauls do. its a beast.

[MooseBaker]

How did Dave get it running for you?

[DocMartinVideos]

just by watching all of his how-to videos. I was able to learn and trouble shoot. I learned how to break a carb down and put it back together from watching his videos. So thanks to him she runs today !

[MooseBaker]

Thats awesome, I did a carb rebuild for the first time BEFORE watching his video and cought my engine on fire....

[naterade21]

its true everything is bigger in texas

[garrett6699]

Very cool man!

[1977fordboy]

yeah the 460s a fuckin pig....would like to see a video on the winch and stuff working...maybe even hook up to a car?

[DocMartinVideos]

in the near future !

[jcmarti7274]

460 sweet !

[RickArter]

Nice sounds great!

[318Captain]

OMG lol. The slipping belt when you rev it is a signature of my truck....never thought I'd here it anywhere else.

[my88tc]

I've got the same problem on my Lincoln, but thats because the alternator is failing.

[civicmicro]

in a way David inspires us all!

[swixie123456]

Nice!  love the engine sound. Music in my ears :)

[l1b3rty2]

thats a cool truck... does the tow still work?

[DocMartinVideos]

we will find out, it was weak 10 years ago but she may still have it in her.

[gbclr]

Pretty cool tow truck, it even has an 8 track deck, sweet.

[RedneckRickem]

What a BEAST, love the old sling wreckers.

[DocMartinVideos]

thanks rick, like your videos !

[RedneckRickem]

Reminds me of the tow truck at the beginning of the original 1974 Gone in 60 Seconds.

[CarCompnut]

Heh, thats funny cuz I'm watching this video while watching the old 74' gone in 60 seconds!

[vccranker]

pretty cool man!!  thanks!!

[79Datson]

Stale gas? Anyways good cold start. How long was this pig sitting?

[DocMartinVideos]

it hasnt started in about 6 weeks when this video was shot.

[DocMartinVideos]

stale gas

[brandi4560]

built ford tough !

[donldonldonl]

great vid, great truck

[djkenster228]

sounds like a 351 modified windsor

[riderhonda]

its bigger then a 351 i can garentee that

[my88tc]

Modified Windsor? Those are two different engines, and I dont think that the Windsor was offered in the F series trucks until the 80s

[papabugs71]

Nope, the winsor series V8 first appeared in Ford trucks in 1969 in the form of the 302.

[my88tc]

I know the 302 was offered that far back, I was referring the the 351W.

[papabugs71]

Oh, I see. In that case, 1982 was the first year for the 351 Windsor in Ford trucks.

[djkenster228]

ok my 79 bronco had a 351 modified widsor and i read on the net that, that paticuler motor was also in f-150s and also 78 broncos

[IDIDieselJohn]

That's the big ole 460 V8, good engines. Pretty rare you see automatic tow trucks from those years.

[Thermint]

you forget red line

[Davidsfarm]

thats some serious professional pumpin' action you got goin' n there.

[DocMartinVideos]

she likes it rough
