Thx for the promote response. This cowl. Do I access it from inside the car or the engine compartment? When I have this problem the water gushes out on the passenger side. If u were sitting there the water would come out on your right foot

I have to admit I tried getting under the glove box to remove some sort of panel that one of the above responses mentioned but I could find no screws etc. that are referenced. Does anyone have experience with the removal of the tray that they are talking about? Very much appreciated.

Btw. I've Been driving around with the headers for like 100/150 miles... I notice NO difference in performance. Ive put 80k+ miles since ive owned the car and can feel/hear pretty much any changes..I notice a slight change in noise when walking around the front of the car...but absolutely NO...

Regarding this misfire issue. I had the same thing when I finished the install. It was an egr issue

Yes. Ur right. Meant to say driver side. I'm having a tough time accessing that inside bolt on the heat shield. Only thing I could get in there was a traditional 13mm wrench and I had no room hardly for my hand (thus why it fell!). It didnt seem to want to move and I was afraid to strip head...

Started the install process over the weekend. reading mostly v8boatbuilder and mountaineergreen's threads. I have a very early 97 (ie no external egr tube to deal with). I am having trouble getting off the exhaust manifold bolt on the driver side that is closest to the front of the engine. I...

BSs are amazing. Drives like beamer. Money well spent. I spent a year agonizing. Like I said I had EBs but they were way old. I never pulled trigger on BSs bc I don't like to but non american. But they are grt and I am v happy

Hey - So my 97 5.0 xlt AWD has 140k miles on it. In pretty good shape. I have always used Mobil 1 synthetic 10W-30. My family always uses mobile. My brother always said it was top notch. So I have 2 questions: 1) Do you guys think I am putting the best oil i can into my ex given the...

Anyone have any added thots on this prior post about a sender? I dk what or where that is

Also. When I go to the parts counter they always aren't sure which fram to give me. They usually go w the smaller one. The one that has the black grip on it. Question for u. Can u guys tell me the motor craft part number that I need for my 5.0 v8 so in the future I just get the right part. Thanks

Amazing. Just seeing this thread for the first time. I have been using fram for a year now. After changing oil I always get under thecae at idle to make sure no leaks etc. I noticed that dam diesel like/marbling noise. I told my mechanic friend and he said it's a noise being made bc the car...

Ahhh. I see. I totally didn't even consider power, torque or gas mileage. I was strictly asking based on if it was worth it for me to to do 5+ hours of work. Thanks for opening my eyes

I have a small exhaust leak on the manifold. I called the dealer up and they said they have been discontinued and that they dont carry the part. 1) does anyone know where you can get one of these? I assuming a junkyard is not a good idea because it is probably old and rusty and not worth...
