    Manual Transmission: Ok to skip gears upshifting??

    What damage could occure if the engine is lugging - I always heard it will overheat. I do this all the time and periodically I will lug the engine but it doesn't seem to be causing any problems.

    P0401 code

    OK guys / gals I have the old P0401 code and was told that the only place to get a new DPFE sensor was from Ford - is that correct? Also, any idea how difficult it is to change this sensor? Thanks a ton for all of the help.

    I have 75K on mine and the single problem that I had was the cotter pin that keeps the clutch and brake pedals in the correct position sheared off - replaced by myself and that was it, no further problems. I did however changed the manual tranny oil to deep purple at 50K. It didn't appear...

    SOme of you guys are as bad as our Federal Gov.

    I'm sitting here reading some of the replys of the N.O. situation and am amazed! Our federal government waited days before they started any movement to assist the people in the area. When people are dying around you and you see no hope, what would you do - just sit there and let it...

    How far between oil changes with synthetic?

    Mobil 1 - 5K Was a pain in the butt to remember every 3 or 4k - had to keep looking at my notes to remember when the last change was. Now it's REALLY easy. Just a thought

    dealer wants $229 for high press. trani flush

    OK, so you drop the pan to see how much wear - if there is significant wear, you loose sleep and figure out what your going to do when the tranny dies.........if there is no wear, you figure your not looking hard enough because there has to be wear........ Guess what I'm trying to say is do...

    OT - Hooray for NASA

    OK, I'm prepairing myself for negative feedback but I have a quick question. Why are we spending billions of dollars exploring space when there are so many here on earth that go hungry each and every day? I'm honestly looking forward to your comments because if so many are so positive...

    My bad.....Fram/ BTW K&N at Walmart now

    Man, you worry too much. If your changing your oil and filter on a regular basis, I don't think you need to use a specific type of oil filter. I used the Fram brand in my old truck and it ran great even after 158K miles. Just my opinion - but you have to do what you believe is best

    Side window deflectors

    I put on the side window deflectors after 2 years without and noticed a considerable noise increase. I keep them on though because 1. Nothing like being able to keep the windows cracked when you park in the hot sun without others knowing that they are cracked. 2. I'm not a big AC fan so...
