    Hesitation

    I've cleaned it, and it drives a bit better now but still does it when I hit a bump. What makes you say that it's definetely bad, and didn't just need to be cleaned? Thanks.

    Hesitation

    I let my car idle for about 5 minutes today, and I guess my idle isn't as perfect as I thought it was. It didn't die or anything, but it was running pretty low and choppy. I got code 11 for engine off, everything is fine. For engine running I got the same codes posted above AND code 13 now...

    Hesitation

    I just thought I would mention that my car still idles perfectly, and always has. I am in the process of doing all the things listed in the idle problems sticky on this forum anyway, but this seems to be a driveability problem and not an idle problem. Hope that helps somebody narrow it down for...

    Hesitation

    Yah it was pretty much constant today, so maybe tomorrow after work when I have the time I'll try to run some codes again. See if anything new comes up. My friend warned me about taking out the salt and pepper shakers. He said on his they were all crud and broke apart when he took them out. I...

    Hesitation

    I almost didn't make it to work today because it was so violently hesitating. I stopped on the highway and pulled the spout connector (i think that's what it's called) out so that my timing would just be at 0 instead of 14. It helped to get me to work, but it's still hesitating. I found the...

    Hesitation

    Yah smog system is still active. :notnice: I know one of the wires under the hood is disconnected because it was ripped one day, but that was a long time ago and this just started happening recently. It appeared to be part of the system though, hopefully nothing vital :) I still passed air...

    Hesitation

    Hesitation / Car Jerking About 3 weeks ago my car started to hesitate when i slam down the pedal. Usually it happens between 1400-2000 rpm's... it will continue to hesitate (violently no less) until i let go of the gas and shift gears. I thought maybe the fuel system needed to be cleaned, so I...

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    Thanks. That's the replacement flasher that I bought. That's exactly what i've been looking for all under the dash, but still no luck. I've tried hard enough, I think I'm going to end up taking it in to a shop. I've tried tracing some wires that were light blue, but to no avail. I'll update...

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    I don't know if it's related, but around the same time my signals stopped working my overhead light now doesn't work when I open my drivers side door. Funny thing is, it still comes on when I open my passenger side door. I can also turn it on using the dash control. There is also no door chime...

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    Okay. Thanks for the help sgarlic and BlackFox5.0. I need to clarify a few things with you guys though. :) Am I looking for a "flasher" or for a "relay", or are they the same thing? I looked up under the glove compartment again just to double check. Right above the tiny compartment light I...

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    I'M GOING INSANE TRYING TO FIND THIS STUPID THING!!!!! :bang: :bang: I think i've narrowed it down though. I think it's definetely under the drivers dash. I tried for an hour trying to spot it behind the radio and behind the glove compartment with no luck. So now my question is: Where...

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    I've looked under the drivers dash, behind the radio, and under/behind the glove compartment, as I said in my first post. I just cant seem to find it. So first of all I want to know whether or not it looks like the flasher for the hazards which is in the fuse box. Second of all I want to know if...

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    Nope. I know it's not the same, it even says so in my haynes manual. Plus, my hazards are working right now, but my signal lights are not. Thanks anyway though.

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    Okay so I just finished putting in my new ignition switch, because I thought that my signal lights weren't working because of it (I was wrong). The turning signals worked fine, then stopped working for a few days, then started working again, and now have stopped working completely. Does that...

    Ignition Switch Recall

    Oh okay. I was told that the one's they sell in some parts stores are the old plastic cheap versions, and to stay away from them because that's what was originally in there. Thanks.

    Ignition Switch Recall

    I called ford the other day trying to get them to do the ignition switch recall for me, but she said it's already been done to my car or isn't available for it. Now I guess I have to do it myself. I don't want to put the same piece of crap in it's place though, I want the part that ford used in...

    Need help quick! Rear Lower Control Arm.

    I'm in the middle of switching my springs, so I decided to do the lower control arms at the same time. The uppers looked tough to get too, but I figured I wouldn't have a problem with the lowers... well I am! I am having problems getting the bolt out of the lower control arm to frame...

    pics of your interior guage setup requested

    Wow, that looks good. The only reason I havn't purchased the MC Machine Panel is because of it's unfinished aluminum look, did you paint that black yourself? Or do they sell them in black as well? If so, what kind of paint did you use and did you have to primer it first? Thanks. (sorry, don't...
