Gary Lewis Posted December 9, 2021 Share Posted December 9, 2021 I didn't realize there was a different one for the early 1980 trucks: 80/ E-F-U100/350 "From 2/80" E0TZ 18832-A Located at ignition coil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darn it. If I knew what the correct capacitance is I'd just make one... but I haven't seen this info anywhere. Probably could use a mylar cap in this application.

And since those engines used the same ignition, I have always assumed that Ford though those who bought that engine either wouldn't buy a radio or wouldn't mind a little static in it.

I'm starting to get engine noise in mine, and similarly don't know what the capacitance is. Also, I think whats on my radio is technically an inductor, which means something store-bought would be so much easier/better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I read somewhere about that....if anyone happens to have one, it would be super to report out what the capacitance is! Its probably ~.2 mfd to let AC disturbance pass to ground. There is also a gizmo attached to the radio itself which appears to be an inductor. I bet they work in tandem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1986F150Six Posted December 9, 2021 Author Share Posted December 9, 2021 No, this goes ON the coil. And it is a capacitor. Part: E0TZ-18832-A Availability: 3 found at 3 sellers https://www.rearcounter.com/E0TZ-18832-A-parts194936.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes on the voltage regulator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
