Finally getting a moment or two to check out the PSD that I bought. Found some burnt pins on the valve cover gaskets, new ones going on this morning. Hopefully this will remedy the problem, not sure if I want to spend the $$$ for a set of injectors. Too much unknown about the truck for me to throw too much at it.

It does seem like we're the only ones that check in frequently. Been pretty busy lately myself.

I've been so busy at work I don't even want to look at a computer when I get off. All I seem to want to do is stare at the backs of my eyelids. Wow have we been slammed. I guess that's a good thing, but these counter lunches are getting old.

off topic; steering leak
having trouble with steering leak on line from pump to radiator. the seal at pump connection, is it just an o-ring or a flat neoprene seal? this is a mercury cougar but seems very similar to 7.3 steering pump, can't remember what i used to fix it.

I've got a '96 XR7, guess I've never paid that close attention to the power steering system on these cars. I do know I don't like where the oil filter is...or the crazy way you have to get it out. You'd think they would have come up with a remote filter set-up since that smaller than standard filter is so close to the cross member. But then some folks that make allot more $$$ than me came up with that design.
