    key switch

    wasn't sure if PATS was in 99 or not. sounds like you got lucky, go grab a kit from Autozone and drill the old one out. Now you will have two keys, one for the doors and one for the ignition. I would still give your BIL a dope slap lol AJ

    key switch

    99 may have PATS if it is a V6... give your BIL a dope slap, get the free column and pay a dealer or locksmith to set up a new key that fits the new ignition. If it doesn't have PATS, yank the old cylinder out (you may have to drill it) and get the kit at any autoparts store. AJ

    FORD to recall 43000 SUV`s

    for both cases, I am pretty sure it is not the engineers that were to blame. And while a good generation is between the Pinto and the Escape/ Bronco Sport, the guilty party has the same issue: contol costs even if a few people die from it. that would go on the accountants and senior...

    FORD to recall 43000 SUV`s

    did they not learn from the PR disaster of not adding a 7 dollar fix to keep the PInto from exploding in a rear end collision? SMH... AJ

    What did you do to your Ranger today? (Part Deux!)

    little known fact about those meeses... they only need a hole as big as a 1/4" to gain entrance to anything you own... your truck will not keep them out. Rats need just 1/2" was told this by my pest control guy... AJ

    Inspiration for Tesla's Cybertruck Revealed?!

    I saw one on I 65 a week or so ago. See my truck spotters post thread in general section It is big. I was thinking it would be Ranger if i ever go fullsized or even Maverick sized. It is much bigger, F250 is pretty accurate for size comparison. If I ever go full stupid and drop 100k on an...

    Another vote for a vacuum leak. Looks nice though, worth the 1000 bucks

    Total eclipse

    Here are my eclipse photos. Taken with a Canon EOS Rebel T7 camera using a EF 75 - 300mm lens and a K & F Concepts ND 100000 solar filter. Did all the settings manually. F Stop 5.6 at 1/500, ISO 400. Used the Canon ap to remotely take pictures with my smart phone so I wouldn't bump the camera

    What did YOU do today?

    Back down at the parents. Another new disposal and a much more pliable ground wire soldered to the stiff one. About a half hour fighting the wires and plumbing and it works fine, no leaks. Moved on to better things such as a distillery tour and Bourbon tasting at Buffalo Trace Distillery...

    Help

    likely you have one issue that is the root cause and it is affecting the other codes. research the codes and see what they are, test the part if you can, check the wiring/ hoses/ connection to the part. before you get too busy chasing the codes down, double check all of the vacuum lines and...
