No such button. Who told you that?

either a bad body ground,or your tranny is locked up,did it run good before you shut it off?

if you are stuck in gear it is not a basic rebuild but a bad rebuild because of the design of the gear selection process , it is impossible to have 2 gears selected together as one selector shaft will not move unless another selector shaft is in the correct position ( neutral ) to allow the detente balls to move out of the way so the next selector shaft can move it is possible that the gear stick is not in the correct position when it was installed back onto the top of the box and one gear was selected and the end of the lever came out of the selector slot or all the selectors were not in the neutral position and so the end of the lever went behind a selector rail pull the gear lever turret of the top of the box, move the selector rails until they all line up as a slot across all of them , then put the gear lever end back in that neutral slot

Does it have spark to the spark plugs ? Is there fuel pressure ? Does the engine have compression ? There are videos on you tube on have to trouble shoot crank no start problems . Check out Eric the car guy videos .

the manual will be about 300 pages long better to go out to your local spares department and buy one then you will have it in book form and not as loose one sided pages (600 pages if single sided )

could be a loose hose or connection tighten it up fuel leaks are a source of fires in cars so do it soon

Resistance problem in the circuit. Are the battery cable ends original? If so, they may need replacement. I have seen a lot of problems caused by the original cable ends Ford uses after they become old. If cable ends have been replaced at some point and time, you can try giving them a good clean where they fit on the battery. Another quick test is to turn on the headlights and see if they come on/are bright. If not, wiggle battery cables to see if they come on/get brighter. This can indicate a cable issue

it dependes on what is wrong if it is leaking out by the block you might need to pull it out and replace the o-ring on the bottom of your tube

if you pull the panel off from inside you should be able to get to the latch with your hand and see what it is doing once it is open

check all grounds.

wash down the back wheel area and make sure you get the buildup off the break area

try using rubbing alcohol and a rag.

Yes you do. trust me you don't want to get that thing half way out and down and not be able to continue. Soak those rusted exhaust studs in a good penetrating oil over night. I bet they come right out. I would not recomend cutting the pipe.
