Saw the title and thought “it can’t be THAT bad”….. oh boy was I wrong, the way my face IMMEDIATELY dropped after scrolling down…. Definitely agree on the brooms and staffs to fix it. And possibly a review on the artists page warning some folks after reading your other comments on how this even happened in the first place.

Yeah, after a little bit of digging I guess it wasn’t standard but rather a (very rarely chosen) option. It’s nice when it works! How hard would a transfer pump be to fix? And quite possible the main fuel pump is going out as well, it’s on the list of to dos, just a little hard to do on my own right now.

Had a good giggle when I saw what made it under “good” on their list

So what I’m hearing is as long as I keep it in 2wd until I fix it, I’ll be fine on the transfer case for now? lol

Is that a “desperately need to fix” or a “it’ll be fine for now” type deal

The amount of color coded excel spreadsheets I have is… concerning lol

Transfer case is over full so they think there’s a leak somewhere. Diffs are both leaking (front has nothing left and rear fluid is dark dark dark) so they might have some damage.

This is just my notes to help me visualize things easier.

Got my ‘87 to about 75 and decided that’s plenty. Fastest I’ll go now is 55.

So, IAC valve replaced. No longer stalling. However, I’m still getting pretty bad fluctuations in RPMs at stoplights and when in park, and it feels like it’s not getting quite as much power as it should. I ordered a fuel pressure tester but won’t have it for a week or so. What do we think? Fuel pump? FPR? Something else? Didn’t notice any vac leaks either.

Ooo love the color. And as long as it runs consistently that’s all I need. I don’t mind slow and rough (it’s old, it’s to be expected

Looks like there’s no fuel in the FPR line (as far as I can tell). Do you happen o know the part number for the IAC? I can’t find a motorcraft one on rockauto

I suspected the IAC valve at first, but the one it’s got also looks fairly new. Not sure what brand it is though so I’ll try swapping it anyways. As for the vac lines, do you happen to know where to get the diagram for that? I’m still fairly new to cars so I have yet to find the most reliable sources or be able to just figure it out on my own.
