From the very beginning I had hot start issues with the truck which really limited how much I could use it. It already had a good mini starter but I wanted to solve the problem for good so ordered a starter blanket, custom 1 awg cables and a NOS AC Delco remote relay.


While I was waiting for the parts to arrive I started looking at how goofy the wiring was at the front end. I'm still scratching my head over this but someone had spliced two different colored lines to solid home electrical wire. It took a few days but I was able to get the wiring all sorted out and cleaned up.




I know its not original and that the purists won't like it but I put the remote starter solenoid exactly where Ford intended it to go, on the inner passenger fender. At least I used a genuine Delco part haha. These mods completely eliminated my hot start issues and now I can use the truck as needed and not have to wait an hour for the engine to cool before I can restart it.
