    Water Pump Issues causes "back order" at Ford?

    Picked up the new water pump at dealership. They matched the price from ford.com. $113.00. I Was wondering who makes this water pump and label on box indicates Germany. Interesting that where the oem motor is from I believe. Anyway upon inspection I noticed it came with a metal gasket. Not...

    My problem was that Ford.com wasn't forthright about cancelling my original order which preventing me from ordering another one with my credit card already pending a charge.

    I have a 2001 Sport Trac with 37,000 oem miles. Water pump began to leak out the weep hole. I ordered a new one from Ford parts .com and it is "back ordered" with no delivery date when available. I called and the pumps are not available from Ford directly only from independent warehouse sellers...

    Ford Vehicle Security System

    Stalls and stumbles after driving and sitting 10 minutes in hot weather. Once it dies completely it will start right up as if nothing happened. But once I put it into drive it begins to stumble and eventually stalls again. It feels like an electrical problem. I'm on my 2nd fuel pump as well a...

    Ford Vehicle Security System

    Thanks. I'm have researched several topics about the factory ford dealer installed alarm and It does have an engine immobilizer feature. I did order factory Ford Relays and replaced them all. The old ones were all OEM from 2001 and never changed. So maybe there was a faulty one, fuel pump, ECM...

    Ford Vehicle Security System

    Anyone have experience with the factory/dealer installed security system. (F7AZ-19A361-AA) Does it have an ignition kill option? I'm having unexpected engine stalling after several stop and park errands. Is there an easy way to disconnect? It's a 2001 SportTrac. Can it be out of sink and need to...

    I had this issue for 5 years and only tolerated it because wasn't my daily driver. Mine is a 2001. Finally replaced the fuel vapor sensor on top of the gas tank and fixed my needle in the hay stack problem. Mine never kicked out any codes either. You'll find the problem with the help from...

    If you have a black light it should illuminate the coolant so you can see a trail?

    Coolant Leak to Nowhere?

    I replaced mine with a factory OEM plastic. I did find the bolt torque for the bolts. I believe this is why some many are having problems with these leaking after an install. Over tightening and warping the whole unit. Other wise go with the all aluminum that's offered. Can't go wrong with it...

    Mystery Stalling Issue Solved ?

    Hey Guys, Wanted to update my ongoing issue over the years of intermit stalling with our 2001 SportTrac. Previously what I posted reviled over the years of endless week-ends that I was looking for a needle in a hay stack because of no codes and no engine light. The biggest dilemma as with...

    Mystery Stalling Issue Solved ?

    Another fix I did was as suggested is a loose ground somewhere which made sense. A year or so ago cleaned surfaces and reattached ground straps off fire wall. Also rerouted alternator wire away from front of engine thinking possible electrical problem and no change. Anyway its running so far no...

    Mystery Stalling Issue Solved ?

    Forgot to mention I blew out the Trans Valve Body Gasket limping home on one occasion. Found an updated rebuilt and replaced that too but really nothing to do with the engine problem that again was my own fault slamming into drive at high rev's trying to get home because engine kept stalling...

    Mystery Stalling Issue Solved ?

    This issue I've been dealing with for over 5+ years with our 2001 Sport trac. No engine light or codes to trace problem. It all began years ago with a miss diagnose of a failing fuel pump by reputable mechanic (I thought). Unfortunately this stalling problem arose again the next summer months...

    2nd and 3rd slip 5R55E Trans

    Searching for correct torque for the Transmission pan I found this which is a shop manual copy for the 5R55E transmission. I'm getting some seepage on my floor in the mornings so I'm hoping this is my problem. After inspection I don't see it coming from anywhere in front of the pan or behind so...

    2nd and 3rd slip 5R55E Trans

    You're braver than I am to do a complete rebuild. Not that I haven't thought about it but my issue seems ok for now. I watch this guy on youtube "Precision Transmission". This guy can take a transmission apart in his sleep.I always think that if someone had to build it why can't I. I did seen a...

    2nd and 3rd slip 5R55E Trans

    As you know when you start googling a product you get a flood of sellers. This guy I found on ebay which had very high remarks in satisfaction so I took a chance and everything looked good from the unpackaging to overall inspection before installing. He claims he does pressure testing on the...
