    ERROR CODES???

    Knowing I have to replace the fuel pump to eliminate the whine, and hopefully reduce the rough idle, I decided to pull the error codes. I used the volt meter method in the Haynes manual. [ I felt like I was using an Ovaltine spy decoder!] I ended up with error codes that were not listed in...

    Dead Voltage Gauge

    My voltage gauge just went kaput! Still starts and runs fine, but the needle is pegged to the left. No problems prior to this, so do the gauges croak like this, or is there something I can check before replacement? (voltage reads 14.2 at idle, which I think is good) Thanks

    Anyone know how hard it is to rebuild the stock ford limited slip? I know it wouldn't be as good as changing it out to an Auburn, but I want to save up for that right now.

    rear window defogger??

    Has anyone fixed a non operating rear window defogger? My '92 switch lights up, the 40a fuse under the hood is good. I have conductivity between the two window "lugs" the wires connect to. I haven't found voltage at the wires, but I think looking at the schem. one may be power and one is...

    When to replace O2 sensor ?

    Just smogged my truck, and my CO was JUST under the max limit of 0.68 (calif.). The smog tech said it might be the O2 sensor, which he recommended changing every tuneup. I have 120k, and running strong, and I know the sensor has never been changed. Any thoughts? Thanks!

    ROUGH IDLE PUZZLE?

    My '92 has devleoped a rough idle I can't seem to cure. It drives fine, but the idle goes up and down when I am sitting still at the light. Usually new plugs smooth it out, but I have put new Bosch plugs, plug wires, cleaned the MAF sensor, new air filter, and had a diagnostic check on the...
