Which octane for 64 Ford Falcon Ranchero?

older engines had higher compression than today I run my 65 Falcon on the medium grade with 84-86 octane most of the time. It also somewhat depends on where you live and how much Ethanol is mixed in the gas in your area look on the pump and try to avoid or use the least Ethanol possible. Ethanol in can cause some problems with carburetors over time and hurts gas mileage. I believe it is a good idea to add a fuel additive like "Seafoam" every 2nd or 3rd tank if you live in a area that gets cold and hot weather to deal with fuel tank condensation and carburetors.

How do you reset a Ford Falcon forte audio system says err?

you need the radio code specific to that radio. err means error. it will be either in the owners manual at the front or it maybe somewhere in the audio booklet. failing that you probably have to ring up ford for the radio code.

Alternatively, when the display shows a flashing "err" you have entered an incorrect code three times - this method might fix it.

Note: You'll still need the correct radio security code...

  • Switch the ignition to accessorory mode (first stop), and LEAVE IT until it changes to "code"- this can take anything from 20-80 minutes.
  • Enter the radio security code.
  • Worked for me!
Good luck!

Why does my ba falcon lock and unlock itself?

IT could happen for many reasons. If it also actuates horn, then it is very likely that you have a faulty door lock actuator. This is a pretty common issue on BA -BF falcons.

You can easily diagnose this problem by listening for a ratcheting noise coming from a door lock/latch assembly inside your doors at the moment you depress LOCK or UNLOCK. A door that make such a sound needs a new lock assembly.

If you are in Perth, I can help you fixing your lock.

If there is no any ratcheting , then it could be an electronic control issue caused by BEM( Body Electronics module)

Where is the fusebox on a 1979 Ford fairmont Futura?

It should be under the dashboard on the driver's side of the vehicle.

AnswerIt should be under the dashboard on the driver's side of the vehicle.

It is in fact under the dash on the driver's side. To be more specific, it is behind a removable panel just below the steering wheel. The panel is about 13-14"x 4-5" and is held in with 2 Phillips head screws. Remove the panel and the fuse box is on your left and is now hard to miss.

Setting valve rockers on 250 ford xf?

Just torque the rocker pedestal bolts to 30-35 ft/lbs. Wind the motor over on the starter motor with the plugs out + the ignition coil lead earthed for about 30 seconds to get the oil pumped up to the lifters first. Then proceed as normal - don't worry if the motor "rattles" for a minute or so when you fire it up the first time, it's all good.

How fast is a ford falcon?

This depends entirely upon your location, the year of the car, the Engine, the transmission, the Rear end, and tire size. Theoretically, you could make a Falcon go 200 mph by putting a 427 V8 in it with a 7 speed Porsche transmission and large enough tires.

However: early to mid sixties falcons tended to have two speeds, capping at 55 MPH. Later, they had 3 speeds allowing for 70 mph. Then there's Australian models that can do anything a modern car can do since they're modern.

Will 1985 Falcon XF wheels fit 1996 Falcon EL?

Yes they will physically fit, as long as the EL Falcon they are going on is not too low. EL's can take some pretty fat wheel & tyres.

However,

XF falcons (i think) came out 14" wheels, where as EL's came out with 15" standard or 16" as optional. This will have an affect on the speedo reading, It would for example, if your on one of the HWY's it would be saying you were doing 100kph, but you would be really doing about 88kphs and have everyone be passing you, PLUS the engine would be reving higher then usual to maintain the speed approx 3100 with a EL and 4 speed auto.

Hope this helps.

To remove the bulb of the main headlight, undo the small clip which holds it in place n gently evpose the blown bulb, with the wires still attached. now remove the bulb by pulling it out and replacing it with a new one. now test the light and insure it works, if so work backwards to reclip the light and place the cap back on. if the light still does not illuminate, it maybe that you have blown a fuse, which could also stop the light from functioning.
