Which solenoid is 'E' is it a EPC, TCC, Direct? I have no info on this unit. My guess it is the low/reverse?

blockoff plate idea. I like. Thanks

96 Towncar 150K Miles. Has stumble, miss, trailer-hitching. Get code PO302. Under full throttle problem seems to get better, as more fuel is commanded to offset excess air causing lean miss. Vacuum leak? EGR valve? Previously this car has had DPFE sensor replaced about 20K ago, mass air sensor was dirty and caused a lean code, but this one varies, light low low speed heavy trailer hitching, highway smooths out, with cruise on it almost disappears. I figured you guys have seen it before, the internet 'experts' want to say injectors, burnt valves, plugs, coils etc. I refuse to throw parts at it, I am going to pull the egr valve to see what things look like, poke around the hoses but the fact that under full throttle the car smooths out, power is still good, I don't buy #2 is weak or dead. Any ideas?

Those are the specs I came up with, post your Prefix just to be sure.

Never been to a back cracker, always been muscle strains with me. Tip #1 Rice sock take a sock fill with uncooked rice(white) tie off end and put in microwave for 1/2-1 min at a time. Becarefull it will get hot. Cheap heating pad that is comfortable. Tip #2 Beer and beg Doc for pain meds. Makes you happy, helps lower stress level, back feels better, so you can move, which helps #3. Tip #3 For lower back muscle pulls, your hips make all the difference, as soon as pain level allows you, lay on floor and rotate hips. Do this to prevent as well, alternate feet on a chair while standing, uses all lower back muscles. Muscle pulls often feel like bone grinding injury but are not. Walking helps a lot, do it at work when in bad positions, stop and walk around the shop. If they give yuo any shit, ask them how much money you make them out on comp. Best Tip #4 Go to a spa and get deep tissue massages from a wenchie massuse. Only time wifey lets other girls rub me /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thumbup.gif I have been out of commision enough over the years and I feel your pain, I have not had any problems since paying for rubbin's

I checked time requirement guide, heui tubes, 1-1.4hr. So I would say 1-2 hours but if it is not warranty, you could fairly charge for diag and installing an update that eliiminates problem, taking care of customer. 3 hours???

I have to replace the two braided lines from the master cylinder to the abs module, the factory service manual references itself in the abs/non abs bleeding procedures. So do I just bleed them normally, are there bleeders on the module? Who at Ford would think that crimping a stainless steel flex line to a steel line would ever be a good idea, they do get snow in michigan right?

It was an easy fix, after cleaning the rust off the copper wires at the cheapo battery terminal ends and reterminating them, tada. Of course the car turned out to be a 96, even better.

Not diesel related but I just noticed fuel vapors on my 96 town car. I filled it sat overfilled, wondering if fuel vapor lines or valve in tank are part of problem. Anyone familiar with system have any ideas. no visible wetness or leaks running or not, just fumes that appear to be from tank area. Shes getting rusty so i'm curious what im in for. How can I tell if this car had the recall? if needed. Thanks Tim

The kit is used in order to replace the flexible high pressure oil line. The oil line is part of the Hydraulic Electronic Unit Injector Pump. Note: This kit includes two different spacers. 122-5855 Spacer has an outer diameter of 20 mm (0.79 inch) and a length of 26 mm (1.02 inch). 135-5096 Spacer has an outer diameter of 17 mm (0.67 inch) and a length of 16 mm (0.63 inch). Make sure that the correct spacer is used. Failure to use the correct mounting hardware and the correct installation procedure may result in failure of the Engine Oil Lines Gp. The 240-0717 Engine Oil Lines Gp is used on engine models with the following serial number prefixes (S/N: 1AJ; 5GL; 6ZG; 7AS; 8YL; 8SZ; 9SZ; BKD; CKM; CRP; DPF).

Once that fitting starts to leak it will come back, the pump thread will feel ok and tighten up, not leak when you have it but will eventually blow off on the customer. If the pump fitting is not leaking or loose you will be all set, just follow the instructions and replace all parts in instructions. Tim

I have not done a c4 since 1988, but i did a c5 not too long ago. I assume green dot refers to some paint mark on the transmission. Should be 4 check balls, valve bodies varied from 65-66,67-69 and so on. I dont have my paper books handy, but will try to find it. Ford changed things as they went along. Best bet is to contact a performance trans builder that offers shift kits. Fax a photocopy of your seperator plate and they can id what body you have. If he is still around you could try faxing Jim@Jims transmissions your separator plate. He may be able to help you. Just junked about 6 c4's this spring. Info I have is shift kits vary from '64-early 65, 65-66. The are the same but their not. Worst coes to worst put a valve body of a known year trans in it, so atleat you know what you have. Most of the rest of the trans are the same up to the end.

So your saaying it is as much fun to remove as my 94 Mark 8 was when I had to pull trans once for rear main, once to overhaul. Are the starter bolts 10mm hex or 12 point, want to bring right sizes.

It takes a minute to sink in but... This one fits several of us here. My wifes favorite

Jim, thats how I collect all my Cat service tools, order first, then wait and see.
