Not sure. Seeing what is available where I live.

251K I do not mind the mechanical. It is the electrical that I can do with out!

This past year, i put in a new alternator, replaced the VP, new injectors, new radiator and just had the ECM reworked. I have had a group of electrical gremlins move in to the truck. It has gotten to the point that I do not trust the truck anymore! Been telling everyone it would be my last vehicle. Guess that is not going to happen . Can’t complain though. It has been a good truck. Now the hunt begins!

The voltage problem was recent. Trying to decide what my next step is going to be.

I just sent my ECM off to Auto Computer Specialists to be worked on. Received it back, put it back in and it ran great for about 2 weeks. Threw a 1287 code, lost all fuel pressure, engine died, and "no bus" showed in the odometer, and the WTS is flashing again . Waited 5 minutes or so, tried to start it up and acted like nothing was wrong. Originally it had a 1287 code, they fixed the fuel pump circuit, the engine would lug at initial start up, and the voltage regulator was erratic and WTS light was flashing. Batteries are charged and grounds are clean. Any suggestions as what my next step is?

My door sprinf fell out (see photo). Is there an easy way to re install it? thanks for any ideas.

No fuel coming to the injectors. Have pressure before the pump. But just a little at the injectors. I do not have them even threaded in. What am I doing wrong.?

I am bummed! Injectors came in Wednesday. The pump is not coming in untill Monday. Ordered every thing at the same time. The injectors are in! Just took my time. No problems. Other than the #6 injector is a treat! Injector pump is out. Got super lucky! The keyway was at about 5*. Never rotated the engine. Hurry up Monday!

Yeah, the code can be reset. I might as well pull the plug, and fix it instead of putting a band aid on it! just looking over the write ups and starting to contact suppliers!

Bet my morning is worse than yours! Started up the truck to go to the gas station for a drink. Coasted out to the main road, pressed the skinny pedal, blue smoke, no power. Turned around, went back home, checked for codes. The code that we do not want shows up. 0216. Guess can't complain, 190k miles on this pump. If I am going to have to prime the fuel system after install, then it is a good time to replace the injectors! Time to look at all the info for a pump replacement and injector installation!

For any Mustang lovers out there. My brother, at the Ford auto show today. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1527366517311582&id=139004942814420

Do you still have the factory fuel filter? If so, there should be locations on the top that you could use as a test port. BTW when was the last time the fuel filter was changed?

14 psi is minimum. Anything lower than that contributes to the death of a vp. My truck runs at 18 psi and 15 psi at WOT.

On my pump, there is a little screen on the inlet side of the pump. Mine clogged about 5 years ago. Never been a problem since.

I am assuming it is an adaptor plug that is in the system. Plugs into the original wiring then into the lights. The lamp assembly is not original.

It had a 9007 in it prior. Everything worked fine before the change.

9007. I have one bulb.

Replaced my head lights and now the bright indicator light stays on. Using the dimmer switch, I can see that the lights toggle from dim to bright. Had the batteries disconnected as well. Any ideas?

Got them offf. Had to down load the manual onto another computer. My computer is in the shop. Had pine needles in the fresh air intake. We will see if that fixed the problem.

Well my leak is not from the windshield. Put foam all around the perimeter and blew air from the inside. I want to clean out the fresh air intake. Don't know how to release the wiper arms from the shafts. Does anyone know the simple way of doing this!

No idea! I logged in from my office computer.

Never even thought of checking the windshield. Have to investigate further!

Well, my first day after selling one of the family businesses is dealing with a floor board leak on the passenger side. We just had a rain here in Oregon. (Imagine that!) and the carpet is drenched. It is not antifreeze, haven't been using the a/c either. I pulled the carpet up and don't see any visible places that the water is coming from. My best guess is that the tire rotation is slinging the water into wherever it is leaking from. I pulled the kick panel and don't see anything there either. Any one have any suggestions?

It is a good time to visit the coast! Fewer Tourists. This is when I go to our beach house (30 miles south of Lincoln City). As for Portland, the only time I go there is to go to the airport. Enjoy your time. Before you go, check to make sure I-84 has been reopened. Been closed due to the fire in the Columbia Gorge.

After replacing the vacuum line connectors, went thru and made sure I didn't cross the red and black lines somewhere. Didn't. Checked for vacuum at the switch, good. Checked vacuum at the first connection at the tranny cross member. Good. Checked at the CAD connection. Red good, black bad. Pulled the metal tubes from the frame, looked to see if it was crushed. Nope. Tried blowing thru it. Nothing. Applied air pressure to clean it out. Connected everything back up, put it into 4wd High and all of the wheels rotate. FIXED! The dash indicator doesn't come on, I can live with that. That must be the indicator switch. I was surprised that the metal tube had actually clogged. Thanks for the help everyone.
