    Ford 2000 wont steer

    Hello, first post here. I mainly work on heavy equipment, but got a call to look at a Ford 2000 that wont turn left. Only turns right. From reading, and searching on here, it appears its the upper thrust bearing. Is it a pretty tough job? Any tips? I havent been into one, so have no idea...

    that's what I was looking for thankyou very much. Will there be a ho;e in the fly wheel on the half turn also or just watch the valves on the half turns?

    I need to know how to adjust my valves. I have finished my rebuild and I am not sure the order to adjust valve train. I have # 1 cylinder TDC now what valves do I set before I rotate and set the rest?

    No your right it will not start at all. I pulled the head last night the valves look great but all the rings are broken. Its the old saying it was running when he parked it, but that's ok. I bought it for a project and to have it around the ranch. I'll learn all about it now doing a rebuild on it.

    I used 2 different testers and both came up the same but it will not start at all with this compression. So I got the head off last night and yep the rings are all broken and one hole a piece of the ring came up and chipped the piston. looks like who ever had it last tried to start it on starter...
