All Good with the Mustang Powered Explorer
PIC below of my Mustang Powered Explorer.....BoooYah!!!!
Just like you said ranger, smoking and water condensation stopped after another 15 minutes running.
Good heat and hot firm return hose.
New clamp stopped the tranny fluid and the shrader valve is holding up fine without the twisted cap o-ring.
I still think I need to tighten the exhaust pipe after it cools. Sounds fine from the front, little noisy from the ****pit.
The engine sounds beautiful. Smooth as silk.
I want to thank everyone again who posted here. Especially (in no special order) 2000StreetRod, ranger7ltr, janolsson, mr2fix2it. I could never have done this without your quick thoughtful help and encouragement. I really appreciated it.
Motor Vehicle is closed on Monday, so Tuesday I will register it. Still have some houskeeping to do (wheel wells, snow flaps, hub caps, center console etc.) After a good test run I'll clean it up real purty.
Also will (when convenient) change the tranny fluid (it's nice and red right now), fuel filter and It will need shocks.
Anyway, thanks again and Happy Exploring.
