    On your diagram of trans cooler, it the lower hose connection to radiator. It looks like a barb fitting, with rubber hose and a single worm gear clamp. Im about to go check on coil wiring and will snap a pic of it.

    I think i might have figured it out, the signature part. My signature isnt showing up on my end. I did update it like you said, and it said changes saved, but im not seeing it on my end.

    Diagnostics help needed!

    Thanks, i replaced pvc valve and elbows while i had the valve covers off. The coil is brand new, along with plugs and wires. I did repair the knock sensor wiring at plug, had bare wires exposed(possibly someone before me was doing something?) I suspect the lean condition is due to the vapor...

    Diagnostics help needed!

    Over the holiday break, i have replaced both valve cover gaskets, intake manifold gaskets, plugs, wires, and coil pack. Twice today about 15 mins apart, the truck bucked some and then stalled. $130 tow bill for 16 miles! Wont start now, but turns over. Ran a scan on it. Pulled up the following...

    After it idled for about a minute, it would shut off again. So i hooked my scantool up, and im getting 8 codes in the ford oem enhanced continuous memory menu. P0325, P0351, P0352, P0353, P1000, P1401, PO171, P0174. Anyone have any ideas what could be? Im much better with heavy diesel engines...

    Well, went to town to get a section of fuel hose to replace the 3/8" hose going from intake to the canister purge valve. Got 16 miles from home, and it shut off. Tow truck operstor looked it over and said the lower oil cooler line on the radiator is leaking badly where a previous owner repaired...

    That thought did cross my mind, and if it ever starts to leak i will do that. Theres some kinda thing in the heater hose with a cap on it, maybe to help bleed air, i dont know. Havent had any issue with it air entrapment. Tbh, kinda reminds me of that fitting that used to come in thos prestone...

    I will say my hands took a beating replacing the #3 plug and wire....kinda wish the plugs were on top like on the 4.6 and the 5.4. Having never had a 4.0 before, i was actually expecting it to be just a v6 version of the 5.4. Same thing chevy did back in the day when they made the 4.3, just a...

    Got everything done. All new vc and intake gaskets, new pcv valve and elbows (job 2 engine), new plugs, wires, and coil. Running pretty good, has an occasional hiccup at idle. Found the rubber line going down to the evap purge valve is rotten. Going to pick up some efi fuel hose tomorow as well...

    Since it was up in the mid 50s today, i got the passenger side valve cover removed....filthy, and looks to be factory gasket. Should there be any looseness to the timing chain? Hasnt been cranked in a couple weeks and i replaced both tensioners earlier that day

Doing the pass. valve cover, intake gaskets, plugs, wires, and coil tomorrow when it...
