I have the same exact problem. I have tried different bell housing, starter, starter drive gear and flywheel. admittedly both flywheels were used. I have come to the conclusion that it is the flywheel. Just because there are no missing teeth they still could be not as high as the other teeth ...

Yea works fine. Have had no problems with it and have been in alot of mud and such with it.
The only thing is you may want to put a piece of screen over the inlet in the cowl cause it will suck up any leaves and such that happen to fall thru cowl slots, other then that its great.

I did basically the same thing except I have the 2.8 and just used dryer vent hose from the air filter. there was an inspection plate where i went thru firewall so didnt have to do any cutting. I figured like you did, if I got in water that high I was screwed anyway. lol http://i262.photobucket.com ...

was surfin' the world wide web and found these:

'84


'86


'88

what year is it and which engine?

check for fuel at injector rail.
check fuel filter.
listen for sound of fuel pump running with key on.
check inertia switch(passenger side floorboard near tranny hump, under carpet.)

the TFI module on dizzy can cause the problem you have described. not sure of code tho.

Here's a link that will help you. http://www.therangerstation.com/tech_library/2_8Duraspark.html I just did mine and it's what I used. I think you will be pleased when you do it. Mine now idles and runs better. It even sounds better and the throttle response seems better also. I bought all new parts ...

Here are some other store's part #s

Advance Auto Parts part # FR109

Napa part # ECH FA 139

Carquest part # FD155

Most if not all '70 2.8 fords should have them. I bought all new parts and used the '78 mustang ll as the model year.
