    Roseann Rosanadana's grandmother was right

    It IS always something. In past month or so: Fixed crashed drivers window. Replaced bad upper control arm. Fixed not working windshield washer. Trying to solve a poor gas mileage issue. Went out for a 'long' drive in the LS. 150 miles RT. After 30 or so miles I stopped and filled her with...

    Ooops - bad control arm?

    Under car first time in a couple years. Just to change oil and filter. And investigate possible something loose in front end. Sure enough the driver's side upper control arm allows wheel movement by hand of I dunno, 1/2 inch or so. I could fix it but I'm getting tired of fixing cars. I'm old. :(

    Easy, cheap fix for windshield washer no squirt.

    It's always something. My WWasher stopped shooting cleaner. Pulled off the RF wheel well covers to reveal the reservoir. Pulled off the pump and found the outlet was plugged up with algae or something green and slimy. Pulled the outlet and cleaned. Bought WW fluid. Done. Wish they were all...

    Rear Main Seal leak.

    I'm callin it. Fixed. No leaks at all over the past several days. Before fix, every day would be a leak the size of a pringles cap under engine/trans interface. Now - nothing. How did I fix it? By pouring a bottle of AT - 205 into the crankcase. Worked within a day. Unreal.

    Splash shield under engine

    I'm getting tired of my splash shield getting pulled off if I drive too far forward when parking and it ends up on the curb or a parking stop. I really don't want to put it on again. I doubt there'll be any big consequences? Is anyone else out there driving without the engine splash shield?

    Clean or replace cats?

    I had to pull my exhaust system to replace a $3.00 seal on my 2001 Getrag. Now that it's out, I'm wondering if I should try to clean or replace the catalytic converters or just leave somewhat well enough alone? Reason - car and cats have 200K on them. I rebuilt the engine and it 'seems' like...

    '01 V6 FYI

    If you think YOUR LS has been orphaned by Ford, you ought to try an '00, '01 or '02 V6. When rebuilding I couldn't get a chain and guide kit for my '01. Now that it's rebuilt I can't find a new Fuel Pressure Sensor. They are not made by anyone AFAIK. I ordered the part for a Jag '01 3.0L and...
