Warm alternator usually indicates internal short. Pull B+ (charge wire to battery) and check for continuity from B+ stud back to alternator housing. Spin tester we use at our NAPA store will...

It's required that the NAPA store owner jumps in here... That's a NAPA new alternator and it carries a lifetime warranty. Here's the important part. When a Ford alternator fails, it usually fails...

Empty promises here too. Have been promised a drip tray for about a year, last promise was either my drip tray for Christmas, or a refund. At this point, either one would be nice. BlackNoble, how...

I'm in for a set.

I'll jump in with a thought or two...

Godzilla had a thread a couple of years ago regarding running very rough after a heavy rain. Turns out it was water in the front oxygen sensor connector. ...

Look at NAPA 4N9300. I would think your rebuilder could cannibalize this unit to rebuild yours. 2002 3.0 DOHC Taurus. Looks like the same unit with a slightly different nose cone than the Noble.

I bought one years ago from Seth on this forum. It sits in my garage still in the box. Visteon, new unit, two numbers on it.... 4063870 & 20-100-01031. You are welcome to this one while you source...

The B+ post should have two wires to it if the car has been rewired. One (the charge wire) goes to the battery, the second one would jumper back to the "sense" terminal on the small plug that goes...

Short answer, run a hot wire from the positive battery terminal direct to the fuel pump. Use a 12 gauge or better wire and stay away from heat sources. The fuel pump will be on "full time" but the...

IC 369 is likely our most popular coil on plug. Lots of work done on this application by Echlin as it is not exactly "bulletproof" from Ford. It fits the Triton V8 applications, 4.6 and 5.4 liters. ...

I have just installed IC-386 Echlin coils from NAPA. Echlin products are made by Standard Ignition for NAPA and marketed under the Echlin brand name. My stores literally sell $100K+ per year in...

I have been schooled by NAPA Underhood reps that an iridium plug takes more voltage to fire than a standard resistor plug. We counsel people daily against using an iridium or platinum plug in...

Step back about six or seven years ago...

Brian Eggars from Torik Motorsports had been a customer of ours for about six months. He always ordered that same things: cases of oil, NAPA gold...

Same here doc... Sounds like that bird made it Cincinnati too. Same story, purple and black crap on the rear clam for less than eight hours and I've got an ugly mark. Tried the clay bar first...

Might be boring to you, but the wife has a 2012 Edge. The ever popular 3.0 liter Ford, AWD, 285 HP, and handles great. Reliability on the chassis is excellent. We've done a couple of 500 mile road...

Great thread. Great info. Thanks guys.

Synchromax and 75w90 are two different things... The 75w90 has an EP additive for hypoid gear sets, I'm not sure if the Synchromax does. But from the notes above, it doesn't sound like we need the...

Been a number of years since I looked at failed clutches, but I have some experience with twin disc clutches in heavy trucks.

A poorly stabbed trans will usually result in a bent disc and...

I had a friend reference me to this company for track day insurance. I spoke to them and got a quote of $330 for the day with an insured value of $60K. They have no problems writing a policy in South...

When I had wiring issues, all the dash lights would act similar to the video when the car was at idle, plus the blower motor would slow down, you could hear the fuel pump change pitch, exterior...

As research on the forum has indicated, dash light flicker seems to be accepted as "normal" in the M400. This issue has been and irritant to me since I aquired my car a year ago. As the dash lights...

I have been following this thread for months and regret that the wife and I won't be involved. We just got back from a five day spring break trip to G'burg. While we regret not being able to run with...

Cancun in February beats Cincinnati hands down !!!

I have been following the cross-global design discussions regarding Grapeman's car with great interest. A friend who races SCCA D-Sports sent me this link. I find it absolutely fascinating and I...

Take a pic of the female side of the fitting showing the open end. Give me a ID at the threads and I can likely identify it for you.

Best guess from what I can see, assuming it is a brake or...
