1977 Ford F100 300 Inline 6 Two

I realize the last vid was kind of conservative. and this one is too just not as conservative as the last one.
once again its the 300 CID 4.9L I-6. Original engine to the Truck it only has 29550 miles on it. Sooner or later i will do a video of my restoration progress with some pictures included.
For all who are wondering it has a Motorcraft 1BBL Carburetor Made by Carter I believe.

shaking like my friends 4.0 i6 in his 89 cherokee.

@313foxbody420 yeahh it does shake quite a bit. mainly because of the rubber bumpers it sits on i'm guessing. the Engine mounts have pieces of rubber on them and they are slight rotted. and should be replaced. but I haven't gotten that far. As far as the exhaust goes. I have a new Thrush Glasspack installed now. it doesn't sound much different but it does have a deeper sound.

your idle speed seems a lot higher than mine..when i turn my truck opn it sounds like a cross between a low idleing big block and a diesel..(from the sticky lifter in cyl 5 or 6) and when in the cab its just like a low drone

Yeah this was taken a while back, now the Carb has been rebuilt and the module the controls the spark plugs (can't think of the name) has been replaced. It now idles a lot lower, quieter too.

I have a 77 F150 300 and it just started running real rough so I did a tune up plugs, wires, cap, rotor, fuel filters and even replaced a leaky donut gasket at the exhaust manifold flange BUT no change in the rough running condition. I was thinking it may be time to replace the carb, was your running real rough at idol and even worse when it was in gear and is this why you rebuilt the carb. About 3 months ago I did replace the module and it ran 80% better not bad the mod only cost about 35 bucks

Since you did replace everything else, I would say it's probably a good time to get your Carburetor replaced or rebuilt, how many miles are on your truck? Before I got mine rebuilt i would have to keep my foot slightly down the accelerator to keep it from clunking out on me. At first we thought it was the carburetor so we had it rebuilt, unfortunately afterword we found it was still clunking out while driving, but purred like a kitten while idle. this is when we found out it was the module

@panzerkampfwagen123 No? she's kind of arthritic and takes a while to sit down sometimes.

Thanks though!
