    Post Van Parts For Sale Here please

    I have a front passenger swivel base I got on the group buy; I don’t have the van anymore so it’s up for grabs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Post Van Parts For Sale Here please

    I have a buncha parts accumulating; I'd love to see them go to another van and be out to good use. Seat swivels for a 75(?)-91 Econoline, both passenger and driver. Rear speaker harness pulled from a 92-08 passenger van; harness goes from behind drivers seat to rear doors, and pigtails for...

    E-250 5.4 Failure

    The reputation for broken plugs is well earned; I had a 4.6 before this. Definitely not spinning freely by any means I got a little bit done last night, mostly more inspection. Combination of a long day at work, cold temperature, and nightfall led me to pack it in before I got hip-deep. I...

    Sounds like a plan I'll head out there in a few minutes. Thank you!

    E-250 5.4 Failure

    As far as I can figure; I have enough juice to try and crank and the starter will sound as though it's engaging but there no turnover. The shop put a breaker bar on the main pulley and couldn't budge it. I haven't done it personally.

    I'll take a specific look at those areas when I get home from work; I hadn't considered them. I had no warning lights on the dash come on and heat gauge read normal. I'm going to take a peek over at your build thread now.

    Yeah I'm really leaning towards that to be honest. I feel like I can trust MG. Trust me I was surprised as y'all. No warning lights or any other signal prior other than right before possibly.

    That's not too bad. I would be a little nervous trying to find a shop around here that I could trust. I'm not even sure if it's rebuildable right now; at least at that price point. As it stands, it's completely seized.

    E-250 5.4 Failure

    The $2350 was what the machine shop charged for the refresh? Which one did you pull and replace? The cost is doable just very unexpected and throws a wrench into the whole camper conversion and further puts the 4wd conversion on hold. I have never done an engine swap before; although I feel...

    Thanks, I'll do that. My generation of van came with the 2-valve, correct? What years was that available in the F-150? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I was hoping you would have some input Chris. I agree, definitely odd. 123,000 when it quit.

    Oh rad I didn't think you still had that. I've been following your swap; really solid work. I'll send you a PM. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    E-250 5.4 Failure

    Well I wish my first van post was one with better news, but here goes. I bought my 2011 E-250 Cargo in September 2016; and hadn't done too much too it other than pull out the shelves and lay down about 60 sq ft of FatMat on the sides and doors (thing sounded like a tin-roof shed when it...
