Hey all, I’ve got a 1985 F-150 with the 5.0L EFI motor. Lately, I’ve been having problems with starting the truck when it gets up to operating temp. I’ll start it cold, drive it a while, and park to get gas or something. When I hop back in the truck to start it, the temp gauge is all the way to “H” and the starter cranks very slowly. I thought it could be the alternator not properly recharging the battery, but I replaced that and am still having the same issue. The starter is new, I just installed it in april. Just wondering if you guys have had similar problems and if you have any solutions for me 🙏🙏

Not the biggest Bronco II fan, but she was in amazing shape!

Hey guys. Bullnose fords are my fave generation. My dream truck is this specific one I’ve found on marketplace. About a 2hr one way drive. 1986 F350 Crew cab swd w/ the 6.9Ll IDI. This also happens to be a manual and a 4x4.
When I go out to look at it what are some things I should be looking for that would be a deal breaker?
They are asking 4,500$ for it. 80k on dash shown to have rolled over.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
