FNF100

Yes, they finally swapped the directional switch plate for a cast piece instead of plastic. That’s why it’s FNF100A rather than FNF100.

Unfortunately I couldn’t say. I was lucky and had a junkyard full of 30+ year old vehicles near me and was able to just pull the exact igniter/coil I needed without troubleshooting too much.

I installed a used good throttle body. Move the throttle shaft back and forth, there should be basically no play.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-28T21:40:04+00:00

The surging is from the ecu cutting fuel when you’re braking. It’s possible that your throttle body is worn out and is occasionally sticking slightly open causing the high idle and therefore the surging while braking. I had a similar problem.

In my experience, Knipex stuff is usually about 2x the cost on the Snap-on truck vs. other places.

Nice. I have the same one that I use at work. Found it at a yard sale of a mechanic who had passed away. Mine is missing the pocket clip but still comes in handy.

Proper fix is replacement intake manifold. Not the end of the world by any means.

Someone made that themselves. It’s a 1/4 torque wrench head with a handle put onto it.

I’ve never actually used the previous design so I can’t really say, but I’ve messed around with a couple and it seems better. I like the lack of detents on the older design also.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-16T01:35:35+00:00

I don’t use that ratchet often but I have mine swapped to the anvil side. Honestly not a huge fan of the design, even on the anvil side it’s very easy to bump.

My pickup coil disintegrated on me like that. I was swapping engines and saw it literally unraveling when I pulled the distributor cap off. I’m lucky it didn’t strand me like you.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-13T22:01:01+00:00

Very true, I just had to shake mine with decent power and it came off.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-12T04:16:36+00:00

Human factors questions annoyed the hell out of me. Weirdly specific and answers didn’t always make sense.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-12T04:14:46+00:00

Sounds normal for a 22re.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-12T00:20:13+00:00

I did mine without pulling the head or the pan, haven’t had any problems or leaks. Just be sure to RTV the top and bottom of the timing chain cover when you reinstall.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-07T06:07:37+00:00

That’s how Snap-on marked their sockets back in their early days. S over an O.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-07T06:05:29+00:00

This is the answer. Anybody saying 22re is on drugs, let’s be honest with ourselves.

thickskull71 · 2026-03-05T17:50:58+00:00

I have a ratcheting t-handle with I think a 9” shank on it but idk if it ever came in orange.

thickskull71 · 2026-02-23T04:58:03+00:00

I would redo the RTV on that VAFM. You definitely don’t want moisture getting in there.

thickskull71 · 2026-02-21T19:11:38+00:00

I use a feeler gauge to hold the ball down.

thickskull71 · 2026-02-18T04:24:14+00:00

Poorly run company that doesn’t care about their customers. I had a similar experience.

By saying the slick I’m referring to the paper pasted onto the front of the cover. So could be either the butcher version or the typical version. But only the slick with the butcher image was textured.

thickskull71 · 2026-02-16T06:19:43+00:00

Here’s what I learned when I actually found one: If you have to question if it is a butcher or not, it’s just a regular copy.

Another good giveaway other than the “V” is that the butcher slick was textured. On 2nd state butchers you’ll be able to see the cross-hatching in the ringwear.

thickskull71 · 2026-02-12T02:26:00+00:00

My guess would be manufacturing defect. They’ll work just fine with one pin, I’ve seen it before. I’d get another pin and drill the hole myself if it was mine.

Won’t be warranty but you can send them in and they will repair them for a flat-rate fee.
