    FEM Module 6W6Z13C788AA

    My friend's 03 TBird retro needs an FEM Front Electronics Module Part # 6W6Z13C788AA. Dealer gave him the run-around after keeping the car for almost a month, and then gave the car back to him. I'm going to forward the Ford Parts Giant link. Any other suggestions? Thanks

    ABS and Traction Control lights

    2004 LS. Got them both. Solid lights. I gave up backyard car repair years ago (I don't have a code reader), but I'd like some input/experiences from you guys on this issue before I take it to my local repair guy (not a Ford dealer). Thanks

    need code advice

    My LS "check engine" light came on. Brought it to a local mechanic. The codes were: P2072 "Throttle actuator"? PO171 "control system ice blockage"? "bank 1 and 2 lean"? PO174 He cleaned up some of the system parts hoping it would eliminate the "lean running" condition. It didn't. Test drive...

    Electronics rebuilders

    Electronic parts for the LS (and Tbird) are, or soon will be, hard to find. Ford's pulling the plug on parts quicker than I had anticipated. (My bro/in/law's TBird A/C went bad. NJ dealer was very lucky and found what he needed in Ca. He could not get the part from Ford direct.) Does...

    changing oil pan gasket 2004 LS 3.9

    I decided to replace my LS leaking oil pan gasket on my own. I'm from the "old school" of backyard mechanics, and the gasket I bought for the LS looks nothing like the old flat cork type gaskets from years ago. I'd appreciate any "do's" and "don't's" before I drop the pan. For example...
