    Question about Napa Block Tester

    My car recently overheated and it is temporarily running on just water with no coolant. I want to try this block tester to see if I have a blown head gasket Will it work with no coolant? Or do I need coolant for the test to give me an accurate reading?

    Solved PATS key sucsess! Thanks Forscan

    This post saved me. It was precisely the problem I was having. I messed around with the Forscan Pats ability, and while trying to program my keys, I managed to mess up both keys from starting the car! I spent all morning trying to figure out the problem. I went from 2 working keys to 0...

    Solved PATS key sucsess! Thanks Forscan

    Update on my project: I received my OBD device and my 2 spare keys. Went to Lowes and the lady said they don't cut keys. She kept reiterating it in different ways expecting me to leave. But I just kind of stood there and said the internet says Lowes cuts the keys and that's why I'm here...

    3rd Gen Experts - Body Question

    After much research, this thread was exactly my goal. My XLT came with no fender flares, side moldings, etc. I thought it would be simple and cheap to buy these parts new or used. But apparently it's $2200 from Ford! And nobody has them used, ebay has nothing. Discouraging because I really...

    Air Conditioning blowing through defrost vents

    This is precisely what was wrong with my brother's 2002 v6 xlt. The metal arm was functioning properly but the plastic piece that connects to it for the vents broke. So the metal arm was moving back and forth properly without anything attached to it. I just got 2 zipties and tied the broken...
