| Notes: |
I have replaced more things on this car than I care to mention. Actually, I no longer own this car. I recently donated the car to a local charity, as I thought it was no longer fit to drive. It was a good car, though... when it wasn't trying to kill me. :-)
Before I ditched the thing (it was trying to kill me!), the complete stats (from my old TCCA sig) were as follows:
Stats and Basic Info:
108k Miles on original AXOD-Metric (heck, could've been 208k, I don't know!
Ancient Gypsy Curse
Common Bad Paint/Clearcoat, thus the HMS Rustoleum
Random Electrial Failures
Common Yellowed Headlights
Scented Cabin Air-- Maple Syrup, Compliments of the leaking Heater Core
Defective Seatbelt Latches
Last Repairs/Service/Upgrades
Great Deal of TLC from Me!
Transmission fluid flushed at 102k Miles
Power Steering System flushed & serviced at 102k Miles
Vehicle Speed Sensor replaced around 102k Miles
Complete Brake System Service... several times
Continental Touring Tires & 4 OEM Rims(yeah, the steel ones)... Was run off of road; bent 2 rims, blew tires
Thin-Film Ignition (TFI) Module replaced Ended up getting the cash back from Ford!
Entire Distributor Replaced

Much, much more!
