Subject: FTE Small - The Definitive "Fake Oil Pressure Gauge"

I just want to say 'thank you' to Pat Brown. Pat, thanks for going the
'extra 9 yards' to provide the entire background and complete fix for
the fake oil pressure gauge situation. Now, I feel that I can tackle
this.

Ironically, I think we'd have been better off if Ford had used a genuine
idiot light, which would at least alert us suckers that the engine had
already been damaged.

Subject: FTE Small - Sanity-izing my Windshield Washer Switch

In my '92 Aerostar, and I'm certain, lots of other Fords, the windshield
washer switch logic is designed to ensure that we'll all scratch our
windshields (this must have been designed by the same guy who did the
oil gauge revision).

The problem is that in response to the closing of the washer switch
terminals, the wiper/washer computer starts the wipers at the same
moment that it starts the washers. However, it takes the washer pump a
few seconds to prime itself and begin squirting fluid onto the glass.
In the meantime, the dry wipers merrily scrape abrasive dirt back and
forth across the windshield, scratching the expensive glass. This delay
is compounded by Ford's donation to us of a "resonance chamber," a
device that causes the fluid to pulsate rhythmically for some reason
that I can't fathom. Apparently, they thought that we'd appreciate
their spending a few extra pennies here, instead of on such
extravagances as usable horn buttons or functional oil pressure gauges.

What I want to do is to separate the washer from the windshield wipers
- -- so that the washer switch simply squirts the fluid without engaging
the wiper motor. Neither my Haynes nor my Alldata (save your money,
guys)breaks out the wiring adequately for me to make the changes.
Here's why I need to know (please reply with whichever part you know):
1. Where is the wiper/washer computer located on my '92 Aerostar?
2. Which are the relevant computer wire terminals and wire color codes?
3. What else do I need to know?

Thanks

Richard

Subject: FTE Small - Flushing Tee: '92 Aerostar

I want to add a Prestone flushing tee to my '92 Aerostar (3.0).
What's the best hose and location for me to cut the hose and install the
tee? I can't tell these hoses apart with the service data that I have.

Neither Haynes nor Alldata ($30 CD ROM) have seen fit to incorporate a
hose diagram in their shop manuals.

Thanks

Richard

Subject: FTE Small - 2WD->4WD Bronco II conversion

I've got an idea I've been toying with. I've got a 1989 Bronco II
2WD. It has the 5 speed manual transmission. I've noticed that it
seems to have a transfer case (of some sort) under it. Does anybody
know what would be involved in converting this truck to 4WD? Is this
at all feasible? If I could do it in a weekend using $200 in parts
or so (I'd probaly get most of them from the junkyard) it might be
worth it. Any ideas/suggestions/web sites?

Thanks!
