it was next to my house i had to push it back when it was in flames

 

i had mine done with a new switch when they first updated the orginal recall to include these trucks . and i work at a dealer and have seen these switches fail for years , ironicly melting . thats why i wanted the new switch when i had mine done

 

Ford searches the registration data bases periodically & notifys new owners. They found me in less than a year as second owner.

But this is a good example, albeit sad, of why you need to be proactive & check the status of recall on this family of trucks.

Glad you got someone who feels confident about bringing it back to life. Keep us updated.

Also glad it didn't take out your home.

 

bad bad break .......I hope things work out for you..........that's a nice truck
Good Luck

 

Glad the mechanic is able to help you out. I may have some stuff lying around from the front of a '94 XL 300ci that I bought a few months back. If you need something I can look and see if I might have it. She was pretty and I hope she will be again for you.

 

was a nice truck if didn't get inside. your OK . Motor should be fine as it was not running. Luckly all parts are common.Where you at ? As for recall Mine 94(3rd owner) was done 2 months ago. My Local Ford garage wount change out with out recall notice. I got recall for my parts truck last fall (6 owner I know of) keep us posted

 

That is an ugly sight. Ford checks vehicle registrations for recall purposes. I got a recall notice on an '86 Tempo that I was at least the third owner of and it had come from out-of -state.

 

Thats a shame that Ford didn't get a hold of you. Hopefully she will be running again in not time. Ford should take more time (and money) in designing parts for their vehicles and maybe this kind of thing wouldn't happen anymore.

 

I have also not heard about the recall. Can i unhook this cruise control thing until i can get into a ford dealer to have it fixed?

 

I guess you could unplug it yourself...its the plug on the front of the master cylinder

 

unhook it today.

that is what ford said to do until it comes in for the part.

 

they will replace the harness with one that has a built in fuse, so if it does short because of a leak, it will blown the fuse....no fire...read the "recall" thread about more info on this subject.

 

thank you very much for the offer im sure ill need lots of interior parts and odds and ends i wont know what ill need till sunday
im going crazy with out her ill post pics when i get there sunday

 

and thats where the firefighter said it started unhook the pos

 

im thinking i might spend some money and get a v8 and 4x4 would a efi 302 and transmission plug and play
