Re: new starter on't engage

Take the starter off and grease the shaft that the bendix is on.
I had to do the some thing on a welding machine a couple of weeks ago.

Re: MPG with a Cummins...

I swapped a 4BTA into my 66 F250 and milage is in the low 20’s.
Far better than the 13 mpg with the 300/6. Cummins has a lot more torque as well.
I am very happy with the swap.

Re: Horn button springs

You could try to retemper the ones that have been in the fire.
Heat to non magnetic 1450 quench in oil.
Warm to maybe 400 let cool. If spring is to stiff reheat to a higher temperature and let cool.

Heater switch

My heater switch arcs when I turn it on.
I assume there must be a insulator around the shaft that opens the defroster.
Has anyone tried to disassemble and rebuild one of these cables?

Re: 1966 F100 240 clutch

I am pretty sure my flywheel was drilled for two different pressure plates.
I think you can use a 10” or 11” clutch
