I think the fuel filter was most likely the culprit, especially if it was the original. Before condemning the catalytic converter, make sure it's not just the heat shield around the converter that's rattling. Very common on Ford products. If you do end up removing the converters, make sure the...

Have you changed the fuel filter? Also if you have access to a fuel pressure gauge I would check fuel pressure when it's acting up. I've seen fuel pumps not flow enough fuel after they get hot.

I would unplug the crank sensor and look at the connector and wiring to it. Put some dielectric grease in the connector. You may have a crank sensor going bad. As it heats up it decides to quit, and cools off and starts again. When it stalls have someone help you and check for spark.

Awesome deal there Greg. I wish I had gotten to it first. Can't wait to see it in person.

Make sure you don't have a bad tire. A slipped belt will cause a lot of front end shake.

Looks great Greg. Let me know when you get it here and we will check it out. I'm glad you're getting it. Tinted windows and your wheels off of your 96 will make it look sharp right away.

Most likely TPS sensor is going bad.

Hey Kirk, John and you other guys that have built these engines, did you key your cam gears to the cams? I know that Mo has told me before that he key's his to keep them from slipping under boost and high rpm's.

Wow that does suck John. I'm assuming this was not at high rpm at least.

It's actually very easy. I've done 2, and plan on doing another this summer. You'll need hood, bumper cover, grill, both fenders,header panel, cowl pieces, and inner fender shields from a 1st gen. Probably the biggest hassle is removing and welding the 1st gen hood latch to the 2nd gen. You will...

Greg, I think I would throw a battery in it and start it first. Obviously you can't run it too long without a belt to turn the water pump, but at least you would can hear it run. The only problem with that is the fuel system is probably varnished up, but I would try anyway.

I've got a 95 chameleon blue for sale in the K.C. MO area. Look in the cars for sale section.

Yes, the base and lsc are the same manifold and cat. I've never used an aftermarket cat on a Mark VIII, but it would probably be just fine. If you have trouble finding one let me know, as I think I have several laying around at work.

The dash's are different from 93 to 95, but most all of the trim pieces are the same. I'm not understanding which piece you are talking about, but most of the trim is the same.

I think I have about 3 complete ones. I'll get some pics of them and contact you.

I know the gen 2 blower motor assembly won't fit in a gen 1 housing without modification. The blower wheel on the gen 2 is slightly deeper. The 2nd gen blowers move more air than 1st gens, but only because of the wheel I think. I believe the actual motors are the same, but not 100% sure. Someone...

Of course I would, but I continue to buy them all the time. I plan on driving one for many years to come, but I'm too poor to buy a new car, and most are complete crap these days.

I had the exact same symptoms not long ago on a 97 I sold to a guy. I replaced the control module and same thing as yours, no blower at all. So I replaced eatc, and also plugged in original control module, same symptoms as original. So in other words I had to change eatc and control module. Not...

Mike, I must have missed something somewhere along the way. Which car is this going in? From the last pics it looks like lsc8's car. Definitely looks like it will be a very fun car to drive.

I think Rich [my great 8] or Jay [98lincmk7lsc] posted that they had one for a 96 that they would sell. If they don't, let me know and I would consider selling one of mine.
