My wife's 96 5.0L is popping a P0304 Cam sensor signal . The syncronizer/sensor is about 7 months old so I doubt it to be the issue . The old one failed and went to chirping . I pulled the sensor off the syncronizer tonight and checked . All of the parts are there and the wires are attached...

My wifes explorer 5.0 (1996) is having a problem with waking up to a dead battery . The battery is 1.5 years old and I had the battery checked and it is fine . You can run the truck all day and it starts fine . Just after sitting 10 to 12 hours it will not start without a jump . I hooked my amp...

I just got me a new Autodiag in the mail today (paid the cabbage for it ) and Im playing around with it . It works pretty good and I have been jerking codes and testing (for fun) with it . Only problem so far is I can't read ABS codes on either of my trucks (95 2 door and 96 4 door ) . It...
