I found today that the steel air canister is rotton on my truck. Will this affect the running/start up of my truck or be the reason the cruise control does not work??

Travis,
I had the same prob with Zigg's page. Having similar problem as greg with no cruise. Not sure tho if it was something left off on motor exchange. Can't see anything out of ordinary tho. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shrug.gif[/img]

I opened my rusted can to see if there was any reason why I paid the dealer the extra money. They put several spider like supports inside the can to prevent it from flattening out under vacuum. It may be a extra precaution that isn't really needed or maybe the metal is so thin the it gets sucked flat. Just an observation.

I replaced my vacuum reservoir with a new one from Ford. The new reservoir is smaller than the original, but seems to work just fine. After replacing the canister the truck seemed to run the same, but the speed control came back to life.
