My truck-- '85 F-150 2WD, C5 trans, 5.0L CA truck in AZ since 86. Carb is  2150FB repl with another 2150 vintage unknown and no tag- VOTM repl with elec solenoid and its solenoids blocked off- EGR blocked off- no TPS-  TFI module on distributor- made a lot of changes to accommodate a lack of source for emissions parts.

I'm sure you need that throttle kicker when you're running the AC there in AZ.

Welcome!   Glad you joined.  

We have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and I'd be happy to add you if you'd like.

You've now been promoted to Member and can post in the main forum.  How 'bout starting a thread there to tell us about your truck.  If you still have the TFI module on the dizzy then I think you need to do a bit more emissions removal.

I had an '82 that someone had messed with, but had left the TFI'd dizzy.  The computer had its knickers in a twist and timing was locked at base, meaning no advance.  The power and MPG were awful.  But a change out of the ignition system to full DS-II made a huge difference.

Anyway, welcome!

Welcome to the crowd, there are a lot of smart folks here and more documentation on these pickups then any where else. I am pretty sure you will get what you need here.

By the way, I am up by Prescott Valley AZ
