Re: 71 F250 360 smokes and rough running
Just and update...truck was running fine then very rough idle and could not keep running.
got a mechanic to adjust timing, points, check and few things. found leak on base carb gasket. previous owner had two thin gaskets together.
my mechanic installed a nice thick one. truck starts and run great now.
onto other things.....heater, battery, fast blinking signal lights, brakes need double pump, no dash lights....
