Ford 8-cut Standard

This set consists of 8 keys; each is designed to decode a particular space within the lock. W hen used properly, you will yield a key in minutes with very little practice. The keys are designed to stop, or catch on tumbler depths of2, 3, 4 and5. It will not stop on a#1 depth tumbler. Make sure you fully understand the procedure before attempting to decode a lock.
NOTE: Practice on a lock in your shop or home before attempting in the field.

Locator Tool
All8-cut Ford door locks consist of6tumblers in spaces 1-6, or2-7. In order for the keys to work, you have to know whether the odds are on the top or the bottom of the lock. Provided is a— locator “tool that will reveal this for you. Most door locks with 1-6 will have the odds on the bottom, but the trunk may have odds on the top. Be sure you know before using the keys or you will not be successful.

Above is the —locator tool. Insert the tool into the lock you are decoding. It can be a door, trunk, or non-sidebar ignition. Pullout on the tool until it stops; it will trap one of the tumblers. Keeping out ward pressure on the key, fully insert the slide tool until it bottoms out in the back of the lock. Take note of the number the slide tool‘s index mark lines up with. This will be the tumbler you have trapped. The —V“cutout in the head of the key indicates which side of the lock the trapped tumbler is on. So in this illustration, tumblernumber3 is on the bottom of the lock. Therefore, odds are on bottom and evens are on top.

1989 Mustang 5.0 LX Coupe Door Panel Clips Installation Instructions

Door panel clips get torn up pretty badly if the panel was ever taken off after Ford originally put
them on. This results in some annoying squeaks and rattles from the panel not being able to
snug closely to the door. If you ever have to take the panel off for some reason (i.e. speaker install,
door lock actuator replacement, etc), then its worth getting new door panel clips while you’re at it.

You can see the full images of this installation instructions at the pdf.

05-07 Ford Focus Gauge Faces Installation Instructions

This is just a guideline for replacement of the gauge faces on the Ford Focus. Please don’t hold me responsible for anything that may go wrong while following these instructions. These instructions are for entertainment usage only. If you learn something from these instructions, congratulations.
1. The panel under the steering wheel will have to be removed. This is the panel to which the hood release is attached. Once this has been removed, you can access the bolts along the bottom of the panel that surrounds the gauge cluster. Don’t forget the bolt over by the headlight switch. Once the bolt shave been removed, grab the trim piece around the cluster and pull it towards you. The whole piece will unclip and separate from the dashboard. Unclip the trunk/hatch release button (if so equipped). You can now access the bolts that hold the cluster into the dash.
2. Remove the 4 bolts holding the cluster into the dash. Reach around the back and disconnect the electrical connection. You will lose your trip odometer information, but the odometer mileage will not be lost.
3. The clear window and the black bezel on the front of the cluster are glued together and detach from the cluster once you pry up the 4 clips. Once the bezel has been removed, you will see the entire gauge face.
4. Mark the location of the needles at their current position with a felt tipped pen on the white part of the cluster. Using a standard fork, remove the gauge needles. Here is a video of how I do it: Click Here
5. At this point, the stock gauge face has to be removed. It is glued to the clear plastic frame. If you can get your fork in between the face and the framework, you can work it off very quickly. The stock gauge face should now be liberated from the cluster.
6. If you are replacing the faces and not upgrading the lighting, skip to step 10. There are 5 Torx screws located around the perimeter of the clear plastic. These will have to come out. This will allow the removal of the clear plastic. Now the white plastic framework (I painted mine silver in the photos below) that you can see has to be removed from the cluster. This requires dismantling of the entire cluster. Don’t worry, It’s actually pretty easy. From the back side of the cluster, you will see some clips that hold it all together. There might be one or two Torx screws in there, I’m not certain, based on the model year. You will have to remove the circuit board from the white plastic framework in order to do the necessary modification. This is due to the fact that in some places the cluster is not deep enough for the strip to be installed in the location that it is required to obtain even lighting. If the strip is not mounted far enough away from the center of the gauges, the lighting can be slightly blotchy, and no one wants that.

Ford Focus 2.0L Zetec Tru-Time Cam Gears Installation Instructions

You have just purchased the BEST adjustable cam sprockets available. These AEM billet aluminum adjustable cam gears are CNC machined from billet aluminum and then laser etched with cam timing marks for adjustment up to ±10° at the cam or ±20° at the crankshaft. Using the vernier scale on the sprocket hub helps to do the cam timing changes quickly and accurately. The inner hub is anodized for lasting beauty and resistance to corrosion. The out gear sector is hard anodized for resistance to wear. We have found that there are significant power gains to be made by adjusting the cam timing even with stock cams and compression. Adjustable cam sprockets are usually required in applications where an aftermarket or reground performance cams are installed or the cylinder head has been milled 0.005” or more. The use of these cam sprockets allows the extraction of maximum power from your engine. We have recorded gains of up to 1015 horsepower due to cam timing tuning using adjustable cam sprockets.

When an aftermarket or reground cam is installed, the original manufacturer’s cam timing specifications are no longer accurate. The adjustable cam sprocket allows you to make necessary adjustments to cam timing to maximize the performance of your engine. This is accomplished by “degreeing in” the optimum cam timing for a particular engine set up.

The adjustable cam gear is especially effective when used with heads that have been milled. The adjustability of the gear allows the accommodation of the changes in cam timing due to the variation of timing belt length from the bottom gear to the top gear when the head is milled. If the head has been milled 0.005” or greater the relationship between the head and the block is altered by moving the head closer to the crankshaft resulting in retarded cam timing.

It must be emphasized that the preceding descriptions are generalizations and any adjustments made must be done with a conservative approach and on a dynamometer or on a racetrack. We do not condone any illegal activity on the street.

302-460 Ford, 340-360 Small Block Chrysler, Pontiac, Olds and AMC Gear Drive Installation

This unit is made of aircraft quality steel right here in the United States, all in Milodon’s own plant. With proper installation, this gear drive will out last and out perform any other cam timing device available. Follow these instructions carefully. We recommend that the engine be on an engine stand to install the gear drive. If this gear drive is to be installed on a fully assembled engine, rather than just initially being assembled, rotate the engine to T.D.C. #1 cylinder compression stroke. Remove the stock cover, gears, timing chain. Prepare the front of the block with a stone or file, and debur the area around the front of the cam boss.

Install the mounting plate, using the Milodon supplied bolts, loosely in the stock cam retainer bolt holes. Place the 3 piece roller bearing assembly on the back of the new cam hub. Be sure the bearing has a thrust washer on each side . Installation Tip: Bearings can be held in place while assembling by coating with thick grease. Slide the hub assembly on the front of the cam. Be sure the dowel pin is in good condition then proceed to install the cam gear on the hub. The Milodon cam hub for 14200 and 14600 Fords is double drilled to stop shearing off the single facrory dowel, and any high end use should use a doulbe doweled cam to match this hub. The hub has a seven bolt verneer pattern. Bolt it up in any hole location at this time. Install the crank gear with the chamfer toward the engine.

You can now proceed with the backlash adjustment. Use a single strip of newsprint (not gloss magazine paper) 1/2″ wide x 6″ long, and wrap the newsprint around the idler gear, between the cam gear, idler gear and crank gear. Press the mounting plate and idler gear assembly firmly by hand toward the cam and crank gears , being sure the newsprint is in place. This centers the idler gear between the other two gears as well as sets the lash between two pairs of gears all in one procedure. A dial indicator while appearing more high tech, can not accomplish all these procedures.

1966-1977 Ford Bronco with Sport Bar Bikini Installation Instructions

Before you begin installing this top assembly, read all instructions thoroughly. After completing the installation, keep these instructions for further reference. Below are a few tips to make this installation easier.

For a smooth fit:
For ease in installation, the top should be installed at temperatures above 72° F. Below this temperature, the top may contract an inch or more, making it difficult to fit to the vehicle. It is normal for a top to contract and wrinkle when stored in the shipping carton. Within a few days after the installation, the top will relax and the wrinkles will disappear.

Step One
Install Footman Loops
Install the Footman Loops on the floor in front of the tailgate opening and just inside of the sport bar mount. Use the loop as a template to mark, center punch and drill two 5/32″ holes. Install the Footman Loop with two #10 x 1/2″ Oval Head Phillips Screws. Do this on both sides of the vehicle.
Step Two
Install Bikini Fabric Slide the extrusion along the front of the Bikini into the channel in the windshield header. Make sure the fabric is centered on the vehicle.

Pre-Installation Notes
1. Special literature required: OE Service Manual for model/year of vehicle. Refer to manual for proper disassembly/reassembly procedures of OE and related components.
2. Adhere to recommendations when replacement fasteners, retainers and keepers are called out in the OE manual.
3. Larger rim and tire combinations may increase leverage on suspension, steering, and related components. When selecting combinations larger than OE, consider the additional stress you could be inducing on the OE and related components.
4. Post suspension system vehicles may experience drive line vibrations. Angles may require tuning, slider on shaft may require replacement, shafts may need to be lengthened or trued, and U-joints may need to be replaced.
5. Secure and properly block vehicle prior to installation of ReadyLift Suspension Inc. components. Always wear safety glasses when using power tools.
6. If installation is to be performed without a hoist, ReadyLift aSuspension Inc. recommends rear alterations first.
7. Due to payload options and initial ride height variances, the amount of lift is a base figure. Final ride height dimensions may vary in accordance to original vehicle attitude. Always measure the attitude prior to beginning installation.

POST-INSTALATION WARNINGS
1. Check all fasteners for proper torque. Check to ensure for adequate clearance between all rotating, mobile, fixed, and heated members. Verify clearance between exhaust and brake lines, fuel lines, fuel tank, floor boards and wiring harness. Check steering gear for clearance. Test and inspect brake system.
2. Perform steering sweep to ensure front brake hoses have adequate slack and do not contact any rotating, mobile or heated members. Inspect rear brake hoses at full extension for adequate slack. Failure to perform hose check/ replacement may result in component failure. Longer replacement hoses, if needed can be purchased from a local parts supplier.
3. Headlight adjustment is highly recommended.
4. Re-torque all fasteners after 500 miles. Always inspect fasteners and components during routine servicing.

Ford Truck Steering Shafts Installation Instructions

REMOVAL:
1. Engage the steering column / ignition switch lock with the steering wheel & wheels centered. (NOTE It may be necessary to remove the upper and lower steering shaft bolts prior to locking for accessibility)
2. Remove the stock steering assembly by removing the bolts that attach it to the steering box and steering column shafts. This connection is often rusted and may require penetrating oil or a few taps with a hammer.

INSTALLATION:
3. If the shaft assembly is too long to fit even when fully collapsed, the telescoping shaft must be cut to length. Remove the upper universal joint from the tubular end of the Borgeson assembly. Install the steering box universal joint onto the steering box input shaft to the depth shown in Figure B. With the telescoping shaft fully extended, the tubular end should be cut so that it is flush with the tip of the steering column shaft. This will allow movement in each direction and the maximum amount of collapsibility.
4. Reinstalling the universal joint on the Borgeson telescoping shaft requires drilling one hole in the tube. Refer to Figure C. Install the universal joint on the end of the telescoping shaft to the depth shown in Figure B. Tighten the short set screw against the tubular shaft to secure the joint in position. Remove the long set screw and mark the position of the new set screw hole on the shaft with a pencil or a punch. Remove the universal joint. Do not drill through the u-joint At the point marked on the shaft drill a 3/8” diameter hole through one wall of the tube only. Put the universal joint back in position on the tube and install the longer set screw so that it passes through the drilled hole and bears against the opposite wall of the tube. Tighten both set screws and then lock nuts to secure the universal joint to the tubular shaft.

2000-2003 Ford Triton FT514125LDT46K 4.6 2 Valve Heads Installation instructions

Instructions for installing spark plug thread repair insert in the Ford Triton 2 valve 2000 to 2003 heads
Full Thread style inserts should be used when both heads have been removed from the engine and all 8 cylinders are upgraded to prevent future failures.

Deep Reach style inserts should be used when only installing one insert during an in-frame installation. This will assure that all spark plug holes are the same and installation of the wrong spark plug can’t happen to an unsuspecting future owner of the vehicle.

FT514125CC4V counterbore cutter is used to trim out the corner of the bore. This tool is used when there are still good threads in the hole. Use this tool first when upgrading the head to fully threaded inserts.

Use a 6 point socket to drive the cutter. It has stops built in to prevent cutting too deeply. Use it only when upgrading to fully threaded inserts and only in holes that still have good threads. Do not use in stripped or previously failed thread repair holes.

260-302 c.i.d. Small Block Ford Engines Performer and Performer RPM Intake Manifolds Instructions

Edelbrock Performer series intake manifolds are designed for engines operating in the idle to 5500 rpm range. Performer RPM series intake manifolds are designed for engines operating in the 1500-6500 rpm range. Match Performer or Performer RPM intake manifolds with recommended carburetors and additional equipment for even greater performance increases.

EGR SYSTEMS: Edelbrock EGR-equipped Performer manifolds are intended as a direct functionally identical replacement for their O.E.M. counterparts. All exhaust emissions or emissions related stock components are intended to be retained and functional. Non-EGR equipped manifolds will not accept stock EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) equipment. EGR systems are used on most 1972 and later model vehicles. Check local laws for requirements.

PREP AND TUNING FOR POWER:
NOTE: Local emission laws must be checked for legality of any carburetor or ignition changes.
Performer Series Intake Manifolds
1. The long equal length runners in the Performer manifold create a very strong signal to the carburetor. In some applications, the stock rods or jets may need changing for best overall performance. Refer to your carburetor owner’s manual for details.
2) Performer manifolds deliver excellent drivability and power utilizing stock distributor settings. Some applications may benefit from resetting the initial advance ±2° from the factory specification.
3) Aftermarket ignitions and more aggressive advance curves may be used with Performer packages.
4) Installation of aftermarket headers or camshafts may lean the carburetor calibration. Should this occur recalibrate with a richer jet.

SF99 Servo Bore Repair System: Ford CD4E

1. Install the drill jig into the case by setting the jig into the servo. Retain the jig in the case with the servo’s snap-ring.
2. Drop the 9/16” guide into the jig. It doesn’t matter which one of the lands on the guide you use, as long as one of the lands is under the 3/8” Allen screw.
3. Ream out the bore using the 9/16” reamer, applying ample lubrication.* DO NOT REAM ABOVE 500 RPM.
4. Replace the 9/16” reamer guide with the 5/8” guide, and the 9/16” reamer with the 5/8” reamer.
5. Ream the bore out using the 5/8” reamer with ample lubrication.* Take care not to either push too hard on the reamer or turn the reamer faster than 500 RPM when reaming. Either one can overly enlarge the bore, causing a loose bushing.
6. Clean the case before proceeding to step number seven. Apply Loctite® (preferably green #680) or equivalent to the bushings and drive the bushings in by hitting the driver until the bushing bottoms. The CD4E kit uses the larger diameter installation tool without an id groove cut in the handle.
8. Insert the provided sizing pin into the bore, chamfer first. It may be necessary to start the pin in the bushing with a rubber mallet. Once the pin is inside the bushing, use a punch to drive the pin all the way through the bushing. Repeat as necessary.

Ford Focus Gauge Faces Installation Instructions

REQUIRED TOOLS:
7mm Hex wrench, socket extensions, Torx T-8 driver, black permanent felt tipped marker.

1. Start up your car and let it get up to operating temperature. While it’s warming up, Remove the top three 7mm Hex screws from the top of the instrument cluster housing. Pop the housing straight out towards you.
2. Unplug the trunk release wiring harness (A, pictured below). Pull the rubber piece out from under the housing (B). Set the housing aside, and unscrew the four 7mm hex screws around the instrument cluster (C).
3. You might want to shut off the car by now, if you haven’t already. Before doing anything else you are going to have to mark the needle location. With the car at full operating temperature. Now mark exactly where the temp, tach, and fuel gauge needles are on the face. Pull out the instrument cluster. Disconnect the wiring harness by moving the black locking tab from right to left as pictured. This will disconnect the wiring harness from the cluster. Unfortunately, it also resets your trip odometer to 0. Take out the instrument cluster. Pull out the cluster out of the car and hold it above your head and say “Woohoo”. Now set the cluster down wherever you’re going to work on it and go get a refreshing drink, because I know you deserve it.
4. Now that you’re refreshed, hopefully not too refreshed, it’s time to start the disassembly of the cluster. Removing the black front of the instrument cluster case from the white back by releasing the four tabs, on top and bottom. Unscrew the three torx screws on the face of the instrument cluster (on the Duratec models there is an additional one above each small gauge). If you do not have a Torx T-8 driver, a small flat head driver should do fine. Pull the face of the gauges straight out of the white casing. The Duratec clusters will require the removal of the needles before the face and clear plastic framework can be removed (see step 6 for tips).
5. Please note that these gauges are Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) sensitive, much like computer hardware. Please take precautions to eliminate the chance of ESD damage. A precaution can be (but not limited to) using a grounding strap.
6. Now to the hard part of the install. To remove the needles (a couple of options) make sure you mark the location of the needles, and or take pics for reference, or use some masking tape on the bezel, making sure its straight to realign the needles. I used a regular fork. Just slide the tines of the fork on each side of the pivot point of the needle and carefully work the needle up and off the gauge. Let’s start with the temp gauge. When removing the needle, try not to rotate it in anyway, this may help with needle realignment. Pop the needle off and set it down.

Use the ELECTRONIC ODOMETER to reset the needles.
Gas Gauge Needle - Fill the tank and push the needle back on at the FULL position Temp Gauge Needle - Run the car for 20 minutes which will get the car to normal operating temperature and push the needle on in the middle of the range. Speedo Gauge Needle - Do the ODO digital speedometer readout trick and get the car up to an even speed on an empty highway, push the needle onto the speed as read by the ODO and your good to go. Tachometer Needle (if equipped) - Do the ODO tack readout trick and push the needle onto the spindle at the appropriate RPM number.

351 C.I.D. Ford Cleveland V8 Non-EGR Engines Performer 351-4v Installation Instructions

Performer series intake manifolds are compatible with aftermarket camshafts and headers designed to operate in the idle-5500 RPM range. Edelbrock offers a dyno-matched, street proven camshaft; Performer-Plus #2172. Header primary tube diameter should be 1-5/8” depending on your specific engine combination.

PREP AND TUNING FOR POWER:
NOTE: Local emission laws must be checked for legality of any carburetor or ignition changes.
1. Aftermarket ignition advance kits may be used with Performer series manifolds.
2. Use modified or high performance cylinder heads such as our Performer RPM series.
3. Installation of aftermarket headers, camshafts or both with an Edelbrock Performer series manifold may require additional tuning.

NOTE: To ensure maximum performance and a proper seal, Edelbrock gaskets which are specifically designed and manufactured for use with Edelbrock parts must be used.
GASKETS: Do not use competition style intake gaskets for this street manifold. Due to material deterioration over time, internal leakage of vacuum and oil may occur.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Use only recommended intake gaskets set when installing this intake manifold.
2. Fully clean the cylinder head intake flanges and the engine block end seal surfaces.
3. Apply Edelbrock Gasgacinch sealant P/N 9300 to both cylinder head flanges and to the cylinder head side of the gaskets, allow to air dry, and attach the intake gaskets.
4. Do not use cork or rubber end seals. Use RTV silicone sealer instead. Apply a ¼” high bead across each block end seal surface, overlapping the intake gasket at the four corners. This method will eliminate end seal slippage.
5. Install the intake manifold and hold-down bolts. Torque all of the manifold bolts in two steps by the sequence shown in Figure 1 to 18-20 ft/lbs.
