    Oil Leaking AC hose

    Yes they are available at several places out here but would rather have equipment on hand for future if I get the itch at 3 am in the morning to begin another project. My Sport Trac is a 2001 so I like having tools on hand. Only cost me around a hundred on Amazon. My truck isn't a daily driver...

    Oil Leaking AC hose

    Finished AC high side hose leak project. What a bear.... Once I got the hose I delivered and I was looking at it on the ground the panic began to set in. This is not going to be an easy task getting this curved, bent hose down around the engine across and over to the other side to accumulator...

    Oil Leaking AC hose

    As of now the system is working fine so i'm not seeing any major problems. Just wanted to replace this hose before summer comes. If the compressor oil won't run out the back after removing the compressor manifold connector I'm not seeing a major issue according to my mechanical skill. Thanks

    Oil Leaking AC hose

    I have developed a small seepage of oil on the AC hose coming off the back of the compressor. (part # YF3660). I know the AC system has oil for the pump however my question is if I remove this hose off the back of the compressor will the system oil run out of the back of the pump if the pump is...

    Water Pump Issues causes "back order" at Ford?

    Began my project. Guess what I found as far as OEM gasket. It is metal. So going as planned with what came with new pump, metal. Came off easy once I removed the alternator bracket. Also after removing the fan assembly found some serious cracks around the fan near the clutch base. So ordered new...

    Water Pump Issues causes "back order" at Ford?

    Thanks for reply Dillard000, I attached context of shipping box with shelf label that I thought would indicate a production date and place of origin. Pic #3, #4 and #5 shows the gasket. Seems it's coated with what looks to me some sort of teflon. Also it looks like a crush type by the looks of...

    Water Pump Issues causes "back order" at Ford?

    Picked up the new water pump at dealership. They matched the price from ford.com. $113.00. I Was wondering who makes this water pump and label on box indicates Germany. Interesting that where the oem motor is from I believe. Anyway upon inspection I noticed it came with a metal gasket. Not...

    Water Pump Issues causes "back order" at Ford?

    My problem was that Ford.com wasn't forthright about cancelling my original order which preventing me from ordering another one with my credit card already pending a charge. In the meantime surfing the net I noticed there has been issues about ford water pumps in resent vehicles. Concerned that...

    Water Pump Issues causes "back order" at Ford?

    I have a 2001 Sport Trac with 37,000 oem miles. Water pump began to leak out the weep hole. I ordered a new one from Ford parts .com and it is "back ordered" with no delivery date when available. I called and the pumps are not available from Ford directly only from independent warehouse sellers...

    Ford Vehicle Security System

    Stalls and stumbles after driving and sitting 10 minutes in hot weather. Once it dies completely it will start right up as if nothing happened. But once I put it into drive it begins to stumble and eventually stalls again. It feels like an electrical problem. I'm on my 2nd fuel pump as well a...

    Ford Vehicle Security System

    Thanks. I'm have researched several topics about the factory ford dealer installed alarm and It does have an engine immobilizer feature. I did order factory Ford Relays and replaced them all. The old ones were all OEM from 2001 and never changed. So maybe there was a faulty one, fuel pump, ECM...

    Ford Vehicle Security System

    Anyone have experience with the factory/dealer installed security system. (F7AZ-19A361-AA) Does it have an ignition kill option? I'm having unexpected engine stalling after several stop and park errands. Is there an easy way to disconnect? It's a 2001 SportTrac. Can it be out of sink and need to...

    I had this issue for 5 years and only tolerated it because wasn't my daily driver. Mine is a 2001. Finally replaced the fuel vapor sensor on top of the gas tank and fixed my needle in the hay stack problem. Mine never kicked out any codes either. You'll find the problem with the help from...

    Coolant Leak to Nowhere?

    I replaced mine with a factory OEM plastic. I did find the bolt torque for the bolts. I believe this is why some many are having problems with these leaking after an install. Over tightening and warping the whole unit. Other wise go with the all aluminum that's offered. Can't go wrong with it...

    Mystery Stalling Issue Solved ?

    Hey Guys, Wanted to update my ongoing issue over the years of intermit stalling with our 2001 SportTrac. Previously what I posted reviled over the years of endless week-ends that I was looking for a needle in a hay stack because of no codes and no engine light. The biggest dilemma as with...

    Mystery Stalling Issue Solved ?

    Another fix I did was as suggested is a loose ground somewhere which made sense. A year or so ago cleaned surfaces and reattached ground straps off fire wall. Also rerouted alternator wire away from front of engine thinking possible electrical problem and no change. Anyway its running so far no...
