    Best location for E4OD temp sensor?

    In my opinion, that's when deep aluminum pans can come in useful. Aluminum sheds heat faster and since it hangs lower, it gets more airflow when driving. Even if you stop and park, it should still cool down better despite the larger fluid capacity. The C6 RV B&M deep pan would cool down a lot...

    Traveller Smurf (Cubey's '89 van)

    I probably won't be putting this on until I come back to Arkansas early next year, but this price was too good to pass up, for $200 (+$20 in tax) including shipping on eBay. It's $373+tax new. o_O...

    Best location for E4OD temp sensor?

    I thought I saw a drain on this, but maybe the pan was swapped at some point, or I was mistaken. I'm currently too sick to go lay on the ground to look around for it.

    Best location for E4OD temp sensor?

    That's why I was babying the van so much a month ago, it kept approaching 220, presumably due to the AC condenser being a poor cooler. The fluid does seem dark, it probably needs to be replaced. Who in how hot it was getting before I had a gauge telling me how hot it was getting! I hate pan...

    Best location for E4OD temp sensor?

    Well in the case of the RV, the original intent was to read the TC output, and I was given bad advice by the overpriced transmission shop in regards to cooling. The owner said bypass the rad cooler and run only the aux cooler. TC output was in the red zone, like 300+. I had gone north from...

    The RV with the rebuilt C6 could read 260 on the TC output line, when the pan showed under 180.

    Best location for E4OD temp sensor?

    The thing about the TC output is that the fluid temperature is only that temperature a matter of seconds, from the time it leaces the TC until it gets cooled. ATF has a time frame for how long it can hold up at higher temperatures, unless we're talking crazy high numbers that shouldn't be...

    Part number confusion

    Yeah. Pretty big mistake. I'm debating buying the 'wrong' line that looks so very similar to the correct one. It has more steel line before hose at the condenser end, but otherwise would probably work. Either that or hope a proper one pops up on eBay, some day. Rotated eBay pic: Proper...

    Part number confusion

    Even assuming 19N617/YF-1515 would work, and i think it would unless it's too short, I'm still unable to find 19972, #5 in that: Edit: this looks soooo close but it's listed as being for older 5.0/5.8

    Part number confusion

    Ok, I think "19867" is a bit useless, because they referred to the for multiple sections. This diagram is showing the engine side at the top, and aux side on the bottom. It's pointing out 19867 at both ends. I missed highlighting some but you get the idea: This is 19867 at the engine side...

    Part number confusion

    Futher confusion... this shows a totally different suction line (2) part number, 19N617 instead of 19867 like above. But at least it's still showing an FS6 compressor and 19972 discharge line. Another diagram, and it agrees with 19972 / 19N617

    Part number confusion

    Help me out here. Looking to source the seemingly very rare ac lines that are totally missing from my 89 E350 with aux (rear) ac. I found original Ford factory PDFs listing parts and showing diagrams but they conflict with each other. E8UZ-19867-B (YF-1514) was r/b (replaced by)...

    Convert to push button start? No key needed?

    all you need is a toggle switch for the fuel shut off solenoid, a manual push button for the glow plugs such that you have the + on the switch (easier on 6.9; 7.3 needs a little more modding to the wiring), and a starter push button to the starter relay on the fender. no need to even touch the...

    Oil change without removing oil filter

    If y'all thought $27.xx at Walmart was expensive for FL1995... it's $52.49 from dealers.

    What would you get?

    Been there 3 times with the motorhome, while towing. That's when you use both feet on the brake pedal and lift your butt off of the seat. :eek:

    Oil change without removing oil filter

    Even cheaper for these IDI size ones. For 2500mi oci, is it even worth using an extra quart of oil for a psd filter?

    Oil change without removing oil filter

    It's the same on Econolines. The 85 E350 RV had a sticker telling OCIs on the oil filler neck that covered the IP to gear bolts.

    Oil change without removing oil filter

    If doing 2500 oci yes, maybe I'd go with that. for 5000, I'd go with the other because it has better filtering media i have the $10 one standing by despite doing 3500ish ocis. I might go back to 2500 like I did with the RV but we'll see

    Oil change without removing oil filter

    The factory spec is 5000 for normal driving, 2500 for towing/heavily loaded/dusty conditions. I always did 2500 (except once 3000) for the motorhome because it was always heavily loaded and towing. Doing around 3500 on my current van.

    Buy this instead. Seems to be made by Wix and is very good quality. $10 https://www.oreillyauto.com/detail/c/select/filters/engine-oil-filter/80c2d8dbb188/microgard-select-oil-filter/mgd5/msl51734/v/a/5361/automotive-truck-1995-ford-f-350?pos=1
