The owner's manual talks about changing transmission (and transaxle, too, I

Our city has the extra dumping day coming up. But they require we only use

Attempted to change the fuel filter in 2000 explorer with a special tool as
recommended by auto parts store but still can not get the lines to disengage
from the filter.  What in the hell am I doing wrong!!!

Has anyone here had a negative experience installing/utilizing a 3 inch body
liftkit?

Is there a trick to getting the thermostat to seat properly in a 351w. I
just changed mine in an '87 and can't get it to seal for the life of me. I
don't know if it has something to do with the fact that it's a vertical
housing or what. Any tricks? Thanks.

As promised, here is a follow up to my previous posts where I was
complaining about uneven and premature tire wear on my 2002 Ranger 4x4.
When I noticed excessive tire noise after the last servicing. I found the
tire were worn and scalloped.

First things first. 1988 F-350 Flatbed, I have already changed the headlight

I took my truck (99 expy xlt 4x4) in for brake issues and the dealer called
me back to tell me that I was missing my sway bar.  I've never heard of
somebody missing (losing)  a sway bar.  Could this actually happen?

Well, the 1993 Aerostar is no more as soon as Purple Heart tows it
off.  They will auction it off, probably for a few hundred bucks.
Darn good engine, tires with perhaps a 1k on them, Michelins.  New
battery, new exhaust...on and on.  Darn.  

Hi..
I have an E150 1988 with 302 EFI. And I think when I look at the frontwheel
when the car is parked that it looks like the wheels is going a bit in at
the top and a bit out at the bottom. Like it is nealing a bit? Is this a

I have a 97 f150 v6. I am hearing a rattle (not REAL loud) when I first
startup in the morning, after I drive about 15 minutes or so it seems to go
away. Is this just a "colder weather thing"? The noise seems to be at the
front (radiator side) of the engine. Any hints appreciated ...

I recently took my '95 Ranger XLT 4x4 into the dealership where I bought it
for some body work and to have the front seat repaired.  The hinge facing

I have a 99 Ranger, extended cab with a 4 liter, automatic, 2 wheel drive.
Sitting at a light for about 30 seconds and wham!, the truck feels like it
was hit in the rear about 5 mph by another vehicle.  No,  I look and the car
behind me is about 10 feet back.

I have a 2001 gas F250 SD with 4x4. Its time to get rid of the OEM
original LT235-85-16 tires.
I want to stay with the same size, but go to a moderately aggressive
tread, and I want studs.
