Wow and I thought flipping over the air cleaner cover was lame. This is a whole new level.

Keith I agree that is what has happened to me.

I did one this morning--- I read somewhere to hit the bolt hard with a punch then remove. I have had these break before so I tried it, well it worked. They came right out. I don't know maybe it was just luck.

F-550 just towed in with a blown tube.

How is that secured in? Just self tapped fitting?

I have a similar one that has frequent regen codes it is a local rural electric association shorts trips and idles while they work in the bucket. I just did a manuel regen the other day will see how it goes.

We had a pigeon visit our shop. He was very friendly. I suspect it was a pet judging by the leg tags. It hung around walking in and out from under our tool boxes. Finally a few of us decided to chase it out. Well it turned, flew over MY tool box and dropped a load, It was a direct hit!! My laptop keyboard and the top of my box will never be the same. A good laugh was had by all!

I installed 92.01 yesterday everything worked fine. (I was getting error messages from 91 version all ok now.)

When I was a kid I would watch the neighbor swap rims and tires on his Pacer. Chrome rims in summer and factory steel and hub caps in winter. Fast foreword two houses and 25 plus years later, guess what my new neighbor had in his back garage yep a "sweet" Pacer same red color too.

It is funny that many recalls or common problems are usually on parts or designs that have been around for years. You would think the new engineers would study past failures and learn a little.

All the above mentioned are right on. But hey how can you forget side pipe exhaust on 97 f150 that came out in front of the right rear tire. Then the o-ring and lug nut recall that followed. Or the one that kept me very busy for years the 3.8 head gaskets of the mid to late 90's.

Ahh heck numbers are for your awesome service management to worry about

I to had regular customers with 94 di Manuel eec 4 and 5 diag connectors another had idi turbo factory set up

Hey Matt a while back if one injector failed the cumbustion press test prior app would require all replaced on that bank... Just saying that might be the ticket

Way to go Tony!

Funny take a look at PTS letter dated august 1 all about trans fluids. Maybe someone better at this could post it here I had no luck.

Our fire department does have some old stuff also. Its something to work on an ambulance after you have had them respond to your house, family. I know for me having them hauling my daughter a couple times it changed me. Glad to hear your son was ok.

Tony, What town is still running that old of an ambulance?

Drier than a popcorn fart. I didn't want to go there but since Mike did.... In response to "Your a smartass" Well that's better than being a dumbass. (Sometimes followed by a punch always followed by a beer or two.)

Just finished a 6.7 dpf assy. 20,000 miles 1700 hours 1400 idle and yes it was covered under warranty. It a farm tire repair truck

That's Slicker than Shit

I was at a mall a few years back and there was a small art show. This guy had made a small art motorcycle you know the ones with wire and other random reused parts. Well there it was a magnehelic guage acting as a gas tank. I talked to the artist and he had no idea what it was until I told him.

Yes, they do have a different smell. I always thought the old Aerostar had a nasty different smell to.

Hang in there Matt. Try to keep focused on what you do, Other people can often suck you down with there bad attitudes. Remember to operate in your world. Do not let them bring you down. As for the loads of work waiting for you, it is what it is, you can't work 24-7 put in your hours and go home. Keep doing the great work you have been, that is why people are bringing it to you. The worst thing you can do is try to pull short cuts and work tons of extra hours that always ends up backfiring.

bigwalt ? What issues?
