What's The Real Purpose For This?

[92GreenGT]

What's the real purpose for this that mounts on the firewall. Is it a brass anode or something else?

I was going to start the same thread one of these days... I knew what it was before I opened it. lol

I think it has something to do with the A.M radio?

That there is a canuter valve. Do a search nube.

Ha, canuter valve is the gayest sounding made up part ever, it has nothing on the scrutinator valve that osculates backwards, just so you know.

I always thought it was for grounding your hood or something, lol

I haven't seen you around much, how's the Cobra? I used to think that too but I'm not sure if it will hit the hood now, it might.lol

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

it kills the circuit when you close the hood so your lights not on all the time..

other than that its just another stupid piece of metal that ford came up with lol

Grounds the hood to the rest of the car

I'm stickin with canuter valve...or maybe it's some kind of hood bearing.

my chilton's says that's the bracket for the blinker fluid reservoir, it's a small plastic, dealer-only part at Ford for $978.99 if your car is missing it

Would that be the regular blinker fluid or the halogen? You better double check and run the 5W30 or else your headlight solenoid will burn out from viscosity breakdown.

Finally, an answer that is worth reading...

looks like someone removed your hyperfootinating valve and forgot to take off the bracket

that's a good point, worst case scenario you can always drop out the A/C compressor and pull the blinker bearings to check for any abnormal wear, these are a wear item on 88 1/2 BOSS mustangs with the crown vic police interceptor 4.6s


jrichter can ban me now

Hey I got one of those!

I started at it for like 20 minutes once trying to figure out what the hell it was there for. Seemed pretty out of place since nothing is attached to it.



Seee....there it is! Back left corner. I finally came to the conclusion that it adds horsepower. I've order a couple of stickers to boost its output.

Wouldn't the hood already be grounded from being bolted on to the car? I used to think it was the hood ground but I don't even know if mine would touch the hood or not. That's the only thing I could actually figure out it would be there for but just couldn't understand the reason behind it being there.

Sorry for the hijack, but what's this part called? It's like a reinforcement bar that goes from the lower part of the radiator support to the upper part (hood latch). Is it truly necessary or can I just toss it?

 

[Mr. Rustypwnz]

toss it, it wont save your car in a crash thats for sure (ask me how I know lol)
