Gary Lewis Posted August 2, 2021 Share Posted August 2, 2021 What do y'all know about the fordfuelinjection.com and then the oldfuelinjection.com websites? I ask because with Chris' help I've come into possession of the files from there and wonder if and how we can use them. The author of some of the articles, like Inject Your Horse, is Ryan McCormack. And apparently his middle name starts with "J", which means he's apparently "the" RJM. I'd like to talk with him to get permission to use his files, so if you know of him... Here are some of the files I have: Inject Your Horse parts 1 - 5 in pdf pinouts for the 5.0 as well as trucks in html And following are some screenshots of file listings: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdWrknTrk Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 It was a real shame that Ford went after the site for using the name. Nothing Ryan had up there was current technology, and it was all very helpful diagnosing and repairing 'Old Fuel Injection' from the '80's & '90's.... I don't know him or the real story about how it all fell apart. But I'd like to thank him for the excellent 3G conversion kit. I know little about the fuel injection side, but the 3G illustrations were very helpful for me to explain to others what to look for and how to do the conversion. I do believe all the pictures I had were RJM watermarked. (that computer is long dead) He also had the injector rebuild kits with the best balance of quality and price that I was able to find back then.

I have the same files and I believe they will run as intended on his site. I have not posted them anywhere due to concern (a) that he owns the work and (b) don't want to anger Ford. Jim, the 160 amp 3G alternator on Darth along with the cable is one of his I bought from a fellow in CA who needed the money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I resurrected an old computer and came across this stuff, I figured I'd offer it to Gary since he's so involved in making websites work these days. All I really know is, they look to be Wordpress sites. Ideally, there would be one or more sql dumpfiles someplace to populate a database with, but I haven't really looked all too hard...

Jim, the 160 amp 3G alternator on Darth along with the cable is one of his I bought from a fellow in CA who needed the money. They aren't all watermarked. And there are some very interesting ones, like the one below out of the "how to solder" series. I'd really like to find him and ask for his permission to use them. But I'd stay away from anything that might anger Ford. However, so far I've not found him. But I have found a number of posts of his - from 10 to 15 years ago. Here's a post on FordSix.com from 2003 when he was Anonymous Guest: https://fordsix.com/threads/interested-in-performance-efi-for-6s.9744. And I found him on FactoryFive's website. And on FSB where he was FireGuy50, but according to these posts he appears to have dropped off the face of the earth in 2012: https://www.fullsizebronco.com/search/299362/?q=Fireguy50&o=relevance So if anyone has a suggestion in how to track him down please let me know.

I don't think I'd want to clone his website. I wouldn't want anyone to clone mine. And, there must be things in it that angered Ford since they shut him down. But there are interesting things in the files. So I would like permission to use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
