    Overheating: Fan Relay Bypass How-to

    Yup from my understanding after reading comments on this all day is the factory fan wiring was barely capable of handling the load, after the years the fan/ fan resistor ages and causes more draw on the connections which also gain resistance from oxidation etc. Ive seen mentioned on 05-09's the...

    Overheating: Fan Relay Bypass How-to

    Thanks for the write up, Going through this issue now. Fan works when connected directly to battery, stock relays ok, but factory connections are melted. Im skipping the headache and going straight to this solution with a new fan,connector, and this relay bypass. Have those 30/40a relays held up?

    Headgaskets on the 5.4l f150.....some ?'s

    Heres a shot of the coolant pooled under the intake, but check out the oil on pas cam cover. Not sure if this is indication of bad head gasket or cam cover gasket. I let the truck run about 10 min then put the tester on, within a few minutes it turned to a very light greenish yellow. So would...

    Headgaskets on the 5.4l f150.....some ?'s

    So friday I picked up a 2000 lariat f150 4x4 with the 5.4 for only $450. I now know why it was so cheap.... I knew the intake leaked and already ordered a cheap replacement from amazon (couldnt find oem intake anywhere online) but once I checked the coolant reservoir I smelled the undeniable...

    Bought $450 5.4l 2000 f150 4x4. No power under acceleration

    Just picked up a high mileage 5.4l 2000 F150 4x4 for $450. Was too cheap to turn down, even if I had to replace motor ...I got several other donor fords in my backyard. It starts rough then settles down and idles good. Driving under acceleration is horrible. If i just let it idle around its...

    AC not cold after evac/recharge?

    Only about 1/4oz of pag was discharged. I added 1/4oz to the fill hose but my gauges dont have a purge valve so had to break fitting to purge and most the oil spewed out but i dont think 1/4oz low would cause much issues. Pressures where around 35-40 on low side and 225-250 high. I bet it is...

    Anyone used Carpro CquartzUK3.0 ceramic coating? Streaks :(

    I have great lighting in my garage and when I applied it in there it looked fantastic. Once I pulled it outside I could notice the rainbow effect high spots in some areas like rear louvers. Still looks decent. Im going to wait awhile and try to polish it down a bit.

    Trans pan with dipstick tube ..... headers?

    Got the pan in, added the required 5.5 qrts of fluid back and was low 1.5qrts still so the cars trans fluid been low for some time. At least I can keep an eye on it now without ramps,oil gun, and big F-ing mess!

    Bought this 2002 E350 with the 6.8l v10 about 3 years ago. It drove bad and timing seemed off. Threw all new sensors in it, cops, plugs, o2's untill finally I had to tear down chain cover to investigate. I found a broken trigger wheel and replaced chains and tensioners while I was in there and...
