Fuel Line Quik Disconnect Tools sets, range in price $7.99 up to a master kit $119.00.. still amazes me how much faith the manufacturers put in plastic..lol
if you find your coil springs to be weak or worn. the cost of a pair of coils depending on your wheelbase are $72 or $107 a pair. now if the vehicle has “nivomat” suspension take a seat cause the shocks cost $321 a pair. or if standard suspension there $44 each.. prices are off O’Reilly’s website.. hehe theres a idea for a video Eric, how to decifer the type of suspension you’re mini van or luxury car has….g’luck and as always tell my customers after they buy parts.. Have Fun!!
Radiator side was split open.
ok, t-stat wasn’t replaced with radiator.. no didnt have symptoms before rad replacement. ran up to 260f and shutdown. no water contamination in oil or plugs. upper hose is hot , lower hose is cold.. found out today was a used radiator. so thinkin might be plugged. and its not my car, guy i work withs car.. a/c doesnt work.. fan works as expected. also was told has a new temp sender. ” pontiac they build excitement and a pain in the ass to work on!” hehe
ok this car has a surge tank a.k.a. overflow reservoir.. no cap on radiator.. cap is on tank.. some darn engineers idea..
how many miles on vehicle? there is no check engine light? inspect your vacuum hose’s, when you replaced fuel pump, did you inspect the tank for rust or crap in the tank. that could plug pick-up screen?? rust in tank will plug every thing up.. g’luck
99% of new fords recommend 5w-20 oil.. i know a guy who has gone thru 2 motors under warranty in his mustang.. i wouldnt put off gettin it in for them to look at.. and if they give ya the run around. just ask them for the phone # of the districts service manager. to complain too.. they will change there tune quickly usually.. they dont like to have complaints filed against them and there shop.. btw they circled the problem on the front… its a ford..L:D lol
