Hi you are looking at a 1985 Ford F250 Dually pickup. The truck has been painted but it is not the best paint job from a distance the truck look good but up close you can see some flaws and some runs also there is some poor body work down below the tailights i took a picture so that you can see it. The truck has a 460 engine and 4 speed manual trans. The engine runs good with the exception of it backfires through the carb when throttle is at 3/4 and is trying to flood a little. I talked to a local mechanic and he thinks that the problem sounde like it might be in the carb that it might need to be cleaned because i let the truck set for about a month without starting it or it might need the timing adjusted, but no guarantee that this is the problem the trans shifts good. The truck came with dual tanks but the previous owner took the front tank off and ran a new line from the fuel pump to the rear tank, the front tank is included and all it needs is a new fuel sending unit and it could be put back on. The tank selector valve is still mounted under the truck and could be hooked back up but i dont know if it works or not. The fuel level guage is not working so id say the rear tank could also use a new sending unit. The tires are in fair condition they should be fine for a while before needing replaced. The previous owner put alot of new parts on the truck including a new clutch master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder, clutch kit, new edelbrock carb, new chrome air cleaner, msd distributor cap front engine cover, and fuel pump, the battery in the truck is less than a year old. The truck frame is in good condition. the interior is in good condition with the exception of the dash being cracked pretty bad and the rubber floor mat has been cut some around the shifter. The truck has a gooseneck ball installed and electric brake box installed. The passenger side window has some specks on the outside you can feel with you hand but really cant haedly see them. The truck has a homemade gooseneck tailgate on it but it does look pretty good. I have tried to describe the truck the best i can with the good and the bad but if i didnt mention something that you would like to know please feel free to email me with any questions. The truck is sold as is where is with no warranty. buyer is responsible for local pickup. Thanks Tim

Ford F-150 EcoBoost in NHTSA probe for acceleration issue
Tue, 28 May 2013According to Automotive News, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is launching a probe into 400,000 Ford F-150 models over possible acceleration problems. According to the article, NHTSA has received 95 reports "alleging incidents of reduced engine power during hard accelerations" on 2011 to 2013 F-150 models equipped with the company's 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine.
Automotive News reports that Ford has issued three technical service bulletins "related to intermittent stumble/misfire on acceleration from highway cruise in humid or damp conditions," according to the government agency's documents. About one third of the 95 reports NHTSA has received cited humid or rainy conditions when these problems allegedly occurred.
These technical service bulletins have allowed dealers to address a "condition related to moisture accumulation in the charge air cooler during extended highway cruising at constant throttle in humid or damp conditions," AN reports, citing NHTSA documents. Furthermore, the TSB outlines details for "reprogramming the powertrain control module with the latest calibration and installing a new CAC and air deflector plate."
Ford recalls over 680,000 Ford Fusions, Mondeos, and Lincoln MKZs for seat belt pretensioners
Fri, Dec 2 2016Update: We spoke with a Ford representative who said that owners will be notified by mail during the week of January 16 . Dealers will also have the fix available at the same time. Owners can bring in their vehicles to dealers for an evaluation in the mean time. The main text has been updated to reflect this. The Basics: Ford is recalling 680,872 2013-2016 Ford Fusions, 2015-2016 Ford Mondeos, and 2013-2015 Lincoln MKZ s for an issue with front driver-side and passenger-side seat belt pretensioners. The Problem: The seat-belt pretensioners did not have sufficient insulation applied. When the pretensioners are activated, the heat generated can cause the cables connected to the belts to separate, which in turn can prevent the seat belts from effectively restraining the occupant. This can lead to injuries. Injuries/Deaths: Ford reports two accidents and two injuries have occurred that are related to this recall. The fix: A dealer technician will inject an insulation coating around the pretensioner. This should effectively keep the heat away from the cables, ensuring the seat belt will properly restrain the user in a collision. If you own one: Affected owners will be notified by mail on the week of January 16. Dealers will have the fix available that week, and owners will be able to bring in their vehicles for the fix to be implemented free of charge. Related Video:
