    1995 Ford 2120 - TEE for checking hydraulic pressure for clutch

    Good find, and I should have suspected metric all along as well. It's frustrating when you can't make the measurement yourself, and when the owner does not reply back to your request for more info. If I had that fitting in my hand, I would have immediately concluded that it wasn't JIC after I...

    Did you try and make another measurement with the calipers, and/or check the thread pitch?

    So what did you come up with for a revised measurement?

    Starrett calipers - nice! I have all Starrett for my outside mics, and still have my Starrett dial calipers as well. Assuming his jaws are touching the threads in the first pic, the .515" measurement rules out a #5 and makes it more likely a #6 if he's not measuring the absolute largest part...

    I'll admit it's closer to #5. The TPI measurement will tell us for sure.

    Since I'm a teacher by profession, allow me to give you a little schooling. First off, we don't measure the ID of female threads to establish fitting size, at least not if we're categorizing them as "7/16" or "14mm". These terms refer to the OD of the male threads. That said, my attached chart...

    5000 SOS update

    Ooof that's ugly. The gaspot engine would make it a no-go for me.

    I told Mike earlier today via text that he is now the resident YT SOS expert, so direct all of your SOS questions to him! :)

    5000 SOS update

    Your problem is that the end play is controlled by a variable thickness thrust washer which might be impossible to find. If the rear cover gasket is say .015" thick, you could leave it out and that would give you .012" end play. You could then substitute the gasket with anaerobic sealant.

    ford 6600 engine will not rotate 360 degrees

    That thing looks like it was stored in salt water.

    8830 Overheat

    Maybe the problem then is the filler neck where the cap seats, as it should not be spitting out water at 220 degrees. Also, it appears that there's a disconnect between the temps you're seeing with your gauges and what the dash is thinking.

    8830 Overheat

    Sounds like you need a new radiator cap if it's spitting water out only 10 degrees over the boiling point. You may be surprised to learn that Ford allows a max of 250 degrees on that engine. That's an advantage of a parent bore engine.

    8830 Overheat

    OK, so that begs the next question: What temperature do you consider to be overheating?

    Ford 7600 head gasket

    Better figure out why it blew, because that's a very rare occurrence on those engines.
