    Low oil temp - check gauge light on - cold temps only

    It's buried in there, easiest way to it is through the drivers wheel well. Look past the left hand side of the upper control arm and you should see a single wire connected. Depending on how large your hands are you may be able to get to the connection through the wheel well. I have to go...

    Condensation inside the spark plug holes

    Are there any AC lines near the spark plug holes that could be dripping condensation? You shouldn't be getting any kind of condensation on the engine from anything except the AC lines as they are the only thing right now that will be cold enough to cause condensation.

    Changed the fuel filter on my 5.0 Mountaineer
