    Engine 2000 Gt Engine Overheating, Help Me Diagnose Please. *video And Pictures*

    Thanks mransr, anyone else agree or think it is something else? Could it possibly be just the water pump? Also, I noticed there was a recall (which I was never notified about) for the intake manifold cracking. What are the chances Ford will still honor that recall? I've owned the car since...

    Engine 2000 Gt Engine Overheating, Help Me Diagnose Please. *video And Pictures*

    Hi guys, I need some help determining what the issue may be with my vehicle. I was driving it today less than 10 miles when I noticed the temperature needle creeping up, higher than normal. I pulled over and shut the car off and noticed smoke coming from under the hood. I popped the hood and...

    Wheel well rusting issues on 2000 GT (pictures attached)

    Hi guys, I know this isn't tech but I didn't see where else to post this. I have a 2000 GT that I bought brand new. Michigan weather has taken a toll on this car over the last 13 years of driving it through the snow and the salt kills the paint and body. Anyway, the vehicle has pretty...

    Engine Looking for help on flushing Power Steering fluid on 2000 GT

    wmburns I was not aware that Ford uses ATF fluid. Forgive me for my ignorance but is all ATF fluid the same? Regarding the turkey baster method, once i remove the majority of the old fluid, should I fill it up to the max line or fill it half way and rotate the steering wheel to get out any air...

    Engine Looking for help on flushing Power Steering fluid on 2000 GT

    The fluid in my PS reservoir is dark brown. There is also sort of a whine noise when steering at low speeds. It's about time to change this fluid and wanted to know if there is a good how-to on this or if this is better to have a shop do? Also what fluid is recommended? Thanks in advance!

    Engine 2000 GT 4.6 V8 Noise coming from Pulleys... how to (pic attached)

    Thanks for the reply trinity_gt. Are either of these reversed threaded? And do I have to worry about the correct torque applied? I don't have a torque wrench. Also before I remove the belt is there a belt diagram better than the one on the underside of the hood? Hopefully it isn't too much...

    Engine 2000 GT 4.6 V8 Noise coming from Pulleys... how to (pic attached)

    Hi guys, My engine (123K miles) has had a small whine over the last few months, nothing too bad but definitely noticeable. It was more prevalent during cold winter days. Last week I was driving it and the noise started to get a lot worse to the point where I heard a metal on metal scraping...

    Where To Find License Plate Light Lens For Sn95 Mustang

    Thanks doublenotch. Checked eBay and they were more expensive and didn't look as good at the latemodel resto ones. I'm not in a rush for them so I guess I will just order over the weekend from LMR unless someone else has a better place.

    Where To Find License Plate Light Lens For Sn95 Mustang

    So my original lenses have cracked and need replacing. I can't seem to find a part # on them but I found them on Late Model Resto. Seems like $15 is a bit pricey for two pieces of plastic and it says they are going to take 2 weeks to ship out. Just wanted to see if anyone knew where to get them...
