I searched everywhere and other sites and could not find a detailed thread so I decided to create one to aid anyone wanting/having to do this. Remember to disconnect the battery and drain the system from the coolant. Now would be a good time to flush the system if it hasn't been done and maybe...

I just went through this. Cleaned the Egr, Maf sensor the problem persisted. Changed coils, spark plugs and then it got worse. Changed the wires so far so good. I think the boot in cylinder #3 was cut up so I suspect that it might have been arcing inside causing the misfire. So the wires should...

Hi all. Busy day for me. 1. Cleaned the EGR valve 2. Cleaned the Mass Airflow Sensor 3. Cleaned the EGR valve 4. Changed the Spark Plugs 5. Changed the upstream Oxygen Sensor link below...

I double checked the part number at the local parts store and online and made sure it was an upstream before ordering it.

Pictures fixed. Thanks for the tip on the grease. I've never had a problem before but I will keep an eye out.

First I'd like to point out that I was able to get the Upstream OEM Denso for $30.00 USD Shipped. I've been using DENSO for years and I can swear by them. Here is the link for anyone intrested: http://www.ebay.com/itm/380448114964?item=380448114964&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME:L:OC:US:3160&vxp=mtr...

Thanks. Ive learned from my own experience from collecting information on the forums first and second to try to provide the simplest explanation and best possible photos to help anyone out there that may want to be a do it yourselfer. I wish I could provide more pics. I hit a few snags but...

I read many threads on here about recommendations on how to do this and what parts to use but I guess I will be the guinea pig since I used the following parts: Dayco Timing belt Dayco Tensioner, Idler Puller and Spring Bosch water pump - New Fel-pro Crank Shaft seals and oil pump gasket. If...

Timing belt!

Well here is my first post. I did use some posts from here as reference along with the shop manual. I am mechanically inclined and my dad being a mechanic also helps a lot. Ive done chains and belts in the past but this was my first dohc. **** This is not for the faint of heart just so you...

Whats up everyone. This is my first post here. My name is Vic and I got my P5 a while back. I use to have a Crown Victoria P71 but for many reasons I needed to get something smaller and sporty. Ive always owned American muscle cars but the only import Ive ever owned has been Mazdas. My first...
