Thread: Clifford the truck :: 1999 Ford F-150

Ahh ok, sorry for the misunderstanding haha ill stop by the shop tomorrow and check the prts truck and see how I could go about it. Hopefully it'll be as simple as swapping the switches

It's all good and you should be able to do the swap. Let us know what you find!

Can you guys point me in the right direction to find the camshaft sensor? I got a code for it and wana replace it as soon as I can.
Can't seem to find much online but I guess I'm not searching right

Autoanything.com. Lmctruck.com. Or call your local ford dealer

Sorry for the misunderstanding, I have the new part, but can't find the old one on the engine. Its sensor 1 is what it said, so I take that's the driver side camshaft. Some say the sensor is behind the AC compressor and to just move it out of the way, others say its on the other side nar the firewall?

Also I replaced my oil and plugs, good thing I haven't drove it much since I got it, was very low on oil, little over 2 quarts!
Ill keep an eye out for any leaks or burning oil signs.

also my plugs were very bad, #2 & #3 (passenger side middle and rear) weren't even tightened in all the way, seemed threaded in a little only.
I had no misfires though, could that contribute to bad mileage?

Is there a way to aim my healights up more?
I went to pull the bumper off the parts truck but I had a friend help and he managed to strip all the screws holding it on so its seemingly stuck on haha.
I've got a cheap set of aftermarket fogs, could I use em to fill in the gap a bit and even out the light?
Also my driver bulb seems brighter than my passenger side as driver lights up more.
Wana get some nice, bright, new bulbs and install the fogs to get better light output

Alex aka Raptor05121 is the light man lol. If he doesn't respond to this, send him a private message.

Alex aka raptor. Aka the professor!

So I got it all cleaned up (inside mostly)
Outside got a rinse
Rims are caked with brake dust, any good tips on getting it off?
Didn't clean the engine bay too much
And got everything replaced except the cam shaft sensor (day off tomorrow so doing it then)
I also got new brakes and rotors to replace the fronts (drums in rear).
I thought they needed changin as brakes are soft and pedal goes down almost half way before I feel it stopping. Took the tires off, rotors and brakes look good? Brake fluid is full.
I'm thinking air in the system? I'm gonna bleed em tomorrow and see if it gets better.

Still contemplating about the off road lights where to put em

got a Flowmaster 40 series and some piping. gonna try and get all that on there tomorrow maybe?
and then toss on my off road lights another time this week if i get the chance.
and again i notice the gas smell when the truck is running and shortly after shutting off?
anyone know what it could be? gas mileage isnt too terrible so i dont think its leaking (but still a possibility)
any tips or advice as to where to check/look for this problem?
