    Ford 4.9 question. Yes ford question

    The only thing good about say mid late 80's to 93 Dodge is the drive train the rest of the truck can't hold a candle to a ford of the same vintage anyone who says different never worked as a fleet mechanic on both . the 68 TO 79 Ford trucks were maybe the best ever made .

    w250 steering pump problems

    w250 1990 cummings the power steering started getting hard to turn pulled the dipstick out to check the oil and there was a pressure buildup and oil started spewing out the reservoir . so i take it the pump is pooched , or could it be the box any other ideas . Thanks .
