    Installed new tanks and PEX over the weekend in a friend's SMB RB50 E Series van. Got it all buttoned up and switched the water pump on. The water pump was burping which meant a leak some place. Traced it to the valve body from one of the original SMB valves used to manage the City water...

    Coil packs and plugs

    Have the tariffs on auto parts kicked in? My '06 5.4 L E250 is nearing 100,000 Miles. I know it needs new plugs per schedule. Are all 8 coil packs exchanged as well? Seems there is a lot about bad coil packs online. Is the recommendation still Motorcraft? What should one expect to pay for...

    The day did get better

    Not the way I expected the day to go. Two broken bolts on the new alternator caused it to fall off and spit off the belt. Its a new high output alternator that only has a two bolt mounting instead of the original three mounting bolt design. I questioned that when I first bought it but the...

    My next phase

    Guys, I know that some of you are aware that I gave up my Admin duties quite some time ago, but I also know that my profile still shows I have those duties. I recommended that my role be replaced by someone else, but honestly, I don’t know if that was ever done. It’s been a crazy few years...

    New Gas Tank! Saved by AJ’s

    So a few months back I filled my tank on my 2003 E250 Quigley SB and fuel started running out of the tank at what appeared to be the pinchweld. Needless to say I was pretty freaked out about the van burning down. So I was worried about what my options would be to replace the tank but knew of...

    Looking for transmission shop recommendation in South Puget Sound area

    I have a 1990 Ford E-250, 302 Windsor with an AOD transmission. Lately it's started neutraling out when I come to a stop until it warms up. It has 140,000 miles on it so I know it's probably about due for a rebuild. I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a good transmission shop that knows AOD's...

    $1900 to replace an oil pan gasket!?

    Hi, I just had bunch of stuff fixed on my 92 E250 sportsmobile. Nothing major, just routine stuff for a 33 year old vehicle …except for a leak in the oil pan seal. The mechanic-who I trust-quoted a 10 hour + job because they have to drop the front suspension to access the pan. Some...

    new engine for 2004 6.0 diesel

    Hi All, Biggie my 2004 EB50 needs a new engine. It's at 156K miles. I have 3 estimates from 30-40K. Do I go for a Ford stock engine, or a studded long block, or have the replacement engine bullet proofed? Will a fresh new engine probably be fine without bullet proofing? I'm in Boise Idaho. It's...
