    I got the issue that my brake line @ Master cylinder is not tight. It Leaks. My mechanic said he was not able to fix it, or he thought he did - who knows. He said it's unusual stuff. I noticed recently that one line, the leading one, has no nut between the brake line and the cylinder. The...

    Motorcraft FD-811 FP compatible with 7.3 IDI E350?

    Hi, Actually it's very hard to find a fuel filter for my 7.3 IDI ( E350, limited space under the hood!). All the US filter brands don't do business in Germany. Here's mostly " Mann" filter available, who don't have US cars on their list. Which doesn't necessary mean that they don't have...
