This is page 37-01-10 of a Ford factory service manual section covering the Speed Control (cruise control) System for F-100 through F-350 trucks and the Bronco. The page centers on FIG. 10, 'Servo and Bracket Installation: F-100, F-350 and Bronco,' showing two exploded illustrations: one for 5.8L and 6.6L (351 and 400 C.I.D.) engines and one for the 7.5L (460 C.I.D.) engine. Callouts identify the valve and hose assembly, vacuum fitting, bracket, connector and speed adjuster, accelerator shaft, actuator arm, and servo and bracket assembly, with detail Views A and B of the servo units. Surrounding text (much of it faded) covers diagnostic procedures: a sensor/servo test using an ohmmeter (approximately 40 ohms and 85 ohms readings, wire 754 Orange-Yellow Hash, wire 825 Gray-Black Hash), an amplifier test, ON/OFF circuit tests using a voltmeter on the Light Blue-Black Hash wire (151), a Set-Accelerate circuit test, a Coast circuit test, and a Road Test procedure including a safety note about shifting into neutral if the system overspeeds, and steps such as pressing the COAST button to decelerate to 35 mph and pressing the brake pedal to shut the system off.
