Mix acetone and atf 50/50 and soak the crap out of the nut threads. Let sit overnight, do it again. Buy a proper size wrench or use a pipe wrench with extension if needed. Heat from a propane torch may help also. And if needed, place a rag underneath, wear an N95 mask and nitrile gloves...

U65 is 4 x 2 U75 is 4 x 4 5 spd is 4 litre V6 6 spd is 4.6 litre V8

How did you measure the gap? Comparing the gap between an old (worn) oem plug and a new plug might be the reason. (just a thought) But, I still have an old set of oem plugs and an old set of HT-1. The gap is different, but I don't have a method to actually measure what that difference is. Can...

I've been using HT-1 plugs for years with no issues. Suggest cleaning the boots of the coils and applying some dielectric grease to the boots both inside and out.

Hope it works out for you. Please do follow-up.

I have a spare set of manifolds, so will pull them out tomorrow and provide those dimensions for you. But I suspect that your manifold is warped and this is the reason for the sealing issue. You can easily check this if the manifold is off the vehicle, by laying a "carpenter's square" on them...

x2 what Blackhawk said. Source and part #'s for seals & tubes?

The modular V8 motors were designed to use 5w20. Synthetic is a good choice for our climate. Also a good filter like the motorcraft FL820s.

Welcome to the site Michael C. Enjoy your stay. Agree 100% with what you have to say. I now have 190 k (kilometers) [about 120 k miles] on it, have owned it since early 09, do all my own maintenance on a regular bases and this vehicle is as robust as I had ever hoped for. Have replaced all...

Agree with PL, use a mechanic's stethoscope. If you have either 4x4 or awd, get all 4 wheels off the ground then engage cruise control and probe each wheel bearing around the knuckle and close to the bearing. A noisy bearing will be quickly heard. Do this in a safe manner, vehicle properly...

Check with Advanced Auto, they had it in stock a couple years ago. Maybe A/Z ? I've used a mity vac to pull out the old fluid (very slow process) and pumped in back in with a garden type sprayer. Measure what you take out, pump the same quantity back in.

Yes, change the filter. It's literally contaminated. All Ford 6r transmissions are of ZF design and require specific fluids.

I would do a pan drop & filter change. There is a lot of fluid above the filter. And be prepared to do it a 2nd time. Is it worth the risk not to?

From a 2006 manual.

Ford used that same single wire connector on many models with a 2g,3g & 4g alternator. Grab a handful next time you visit a salvage yard.

Those appear to be the knuckle bushing that are coming apart. A ball joint 'c' press might get them out, otherwise probably need to completely disassemble and then r&r the bushings with a hydraulic press. Maybe consider replacing the wheel bearings at the same time. If you don't have access to...

Had a somewhat similar issue a few years ago. The rear window glass would occasionally 'pop' open, the locks worked intermittently, could hear the glass open switch 'clicking' while driving on occasion. When I removed the license plate light trim panel, found the wiring harness connection at the...

How is this?

From c352 above. Note pin 5. 2 different wire sizes and different colors. You must have the 10 way memory seats. Between c340 and c352, there is a slice, s337, that feeds power to the seat module at pin 1. Here is the schematic for the memory seats.

Schematic for heated seats. Power is supplied through the main connector. Pin #1 for the right seat C327 and pin #9 for the left seat C339.

Pictoral of right seat, schematic and 16 pin connector. Only 12 used (#c327) Think this thread needs project pictures.

I'll get that for you today. How about a pic of your project?

Schematics with & without memory. Also connector c339, c340 pinouts.
