Much to the relief of everyone who had to sit behind me in traffic for the past few months, I replaced the catalytic converter on my 95.
What happened to it ?Moment of Silence request: Found out today that my uncle's 1996 Ford f-150 died today. 250k strong miles and now the engine looks to be toast. Thing was a beautiful green two tone Eddie Bauer edition.
Engine just quit, no fire and smoke, just stopped all at once.
Time to drop in a new bullet. Live on F150!Moment of Silence request: Found out today that my uncle's 1996 Ford f-150 died today. 250k strong miles and now the engine looks to be toast. Thing was a beautiful green two tone Eddie Bauer edition.![]()
Wouldn't surprise me if he did. he loves that truck
Any weird noises?
Yeah... silence![]()
he got requoted today for what it would run to install a re-manufactured engine. $3200 so he's doing itWent to a U-Pull-It junkyard!
Got a factory intake for the ZR2 along with 4 more clips that hold in the headlight and another 4x4 push-button switch panel. Also got 2 reel-lights from K1500's. Someday 1 will go in each truck.Got everything for $20. Only thing I couldn't find was a horn for my Z71. Mine has 2; 1 is bad/doesn't work.

It has a cheap eBay intake with an open filter (talk about hot-air intake!). The tube from the "bonnet" to the MAF is longer than the OEM one. I either have to run the OEM rippled section with my Volant box or I can use the OEM to measure and cut the eBay pipe shorter (probably what I'll do).Went to a U-Pull-It junkyard!

Did your ZR2 not have an intake?![]()

For this winter, I might just leave the eBay intake in there. I've got enough problems/projects to complete in the next month.![]()
