magnaflow mufflers with straight pipe resonator deletes, also catback dumps when i want to be obnoxious. Have had the setup for 9 years and have always been happy. Sounds mean and exotic, but not overly loud. With the dumps open its stupid loud. Chest rattling loud. Used to have a bit of an...

So since I found this thread most useful as far as tackling the hydraulic fan pump actuator job, I thought I would resurrect it and contribute to it. While preparing for the job and scouring the net for several hours to find a good write up, this thread was the best I found, and I could not find...

For now, WD-40 is WINNING. Was getting stuck every time, now its gone all day without getting stuck, lets see how long this lasts.

Its not the contacts, the the actual mechanism that makes the button go in straight is shot. Its happening almost every time i put the key in now, for the meantime i will prob make that switch hang out of the center console and press it manually. Perhaps ill even solder in a new switch and...

I think the switch is shot internally, ill lube it up for the meantime.

OK. key got stuck on me again this morning. So looks like i need a new part. Anyone care to venture a guess as to what that part is called or what the part number is? I hope its not part of the entire assembly, if it is i might have to rig something to make it work. Thanks

I wanted to put it off and address it tomorrow, but ur right, i wouldnt have slept well, if at all. I do have a garage but still, I hate when I have care issues. Im just glad its fixed, and hope someone finds this useful in the future. I found a couple people online who had similar issues but no...

ok found the problem, luckily for now, its an easy fix. So I was thinking, since the car is actually parked, the problem must be electical, So i take apart the center console and start poking around. I dont see any immediate problems and then I notice a little switch that is jammed a little. I...

it seems and feels normal, i put it on a steep driveway to see if it actually was parking and it is... Ill take the center console out and have a look but I think it something else.

Well I just parked my car like always and tried to turn off my car, I couldnt remove my key. I cant turn the car off either, I can kill the motor but the key is still in the on position. I can start the car back up and cycle through the gears. It says R, N, D, 3, 2, 1. However when i have the...

Hey thanks for the links. So it appears that everyone who has replaced the lower control arm ball joints. Have NOT been able to successfully replace the bushings?

I have the non-sport version. What size would that be? link?

Thanks for the P/N's and link to that write up. I am moreso looking for aftermarket balljoints and bushings. I dont mind pressing the balljoints in myself as I'll buy the tool. For example that ebay kit comes with (2) Upper Control Arms with Ball Joints & Bushings ( 6W4Z 3084-AA ; 6W4Z 3085-AA)...

Hello Well its time to replace my suspension parts. Im getting some clunks going over bumps and the tire shop wouldnt align my car due to bad balljoints. Car has about 130,000 miles. 2001 Lincoln LS v8. They also gave me a $2600+ quote to replace the suspension parts at Sears. I have no problem...

my newish cabin air filter has separated from the trim, DON'T BUY FRAM anyways i think it was suffocating the system, i went with a new Motorcraft filter and it blows ice cubes.

why would you want to suck in hot engine air?

sounds like this is your cheapest fix.

nope not at all. if it was the DCCV would it give an error?

I ran the self diagnostic test and it read 888 888
