    trying to get codes

    1987 2.3 GAS, I THINK I read them right, I got a 31 and a 67, the 67 went away after I pulled the neg cable from the battery. I went and got a new EGR Position Sensor, 31 is still coming up. also, would an 87 also have the 3 digit codes, I THINK I'm also getting a 112, but I am not sure if I am...

    System Sentry (low fluid/bulb out)

    The little diagram with the red & amber LEDs that came on higher end BII's and most, if not all, 79-86 Mustangs/Capris.... has anyone successfully installed one in a 1st gen Ranger?

    I'm trying to get some info on them. Everyone knows the M5OD, but I want to know more about the TK5. What are it's weak points? Did it have slave cyl issues like the M5OD's did?

    headlight wire question

    On this 87 the PO had issues with the headlights, and instead of replacing the Dimmer switch, he wired up a toggle switch on the dash for the low beams. I got the new dimmer switch in, but the F'ing moron separated the wires from the stock vehicle plugs that plug into the headlight's terminals...

    Instrument cluster/bezel question.

    Am I correct in assuming that for the bezel the 83-84 was the same, 85 was a one year only, and 86-88 were the same? And for the cluster itself it was 83-85 and 86-88? I'm trying to figure what year cluster w/tach will work in my 87.

    I might be getting back in a Ranger

    I should have kept my last one, but you know, can't go back :( Anyway, I found a really clean 87 2.3 5 speed 2wd that I plan on checking out? anything I should look out for, beside the usual stuff? Were the manual trannies prior to the M50d as reliable as a M50d? looks like this one has the Toyo...

    Lima Head Gaskets

    Is it somewhat common for them to fail on the the older ohc 4's? I've seen a few Mustangs online lately they either have had a new HG put on, or needs a new one.

    CFI 5.0's

    Fox Mustangs

    I think I want one, actually, I know I do, lol. Looking for a later year (87-93) manual ONLY if a 2.3, auto or manual if a 5.0. seems that 2.3's with Manual are really hard to find, all the ones I do find are automatic. Preference is a hatchback and I know those are still plentiful, I could go...

    prorper routing for alternator harness (1997 and older)

    Does anyone know, or could send me a pic of (the ones I find online are not very helpful at all) the proper routing for the alternator to starter solenoid harness routing? Right now I have it between the coil packs, up over the valve cover down the other side to the solenoid but as it sits, it's...

    Flex Fuel

    Does anyone know why 99's and 00's only came in FF form? Was it a cost cutting measure? I find it funny when people say their 99 or 00 3.0 is a FF, when for those 2 years, all 3.0's were.

    Temp Gauge reading kind of low

    I know that this has been brought up numerous times but my temp gauge seems awfully low even once truck is fully warmed up. Before anyone asks, I do have heat and it gets VERY HOT. Here is a pic after I've been driving for a good half hour or so.
