That's great, I'm almost there. I've got 5k to go. Won't hit it this year but def in 2018. Have you had any issues? I had to replace my transmission around 93k.

I think I'm about to have some issues. SEEMS like the crank pulley is wobbling a TEENY bit.
Also,my heater cools down when engine idles, so I'm thinking water pump is weak. Rev it and the heat comes right back. don-ohio (:^)

no major issues knock on wood.... A light bulb or two, a fuel pump the second day I owned it, door panels pealing off, thats about it I guess. It was picked up in Indianapolis by the dealer for me so it had about 400 miles on it when I picked it up.

stupid question?? Is your antifreeze up to the proper level? I have been running after market under drive pulley's for years now. Maybe something to look into instead of replacing yours with a ford piece.

Yes,my antifreeze is at correct level. You talking about underdrive crank pulley or water pump pulley?
I'm gonna replace the water pump for sure,because it's got 100K on it. The underdrive crank pulley might be okay, but I'm wanting to make sure it charges battery correctly like if I leave it idling with heater and headlights on,yannow? Thanks!

A lot of people would be saying "boo hoo" not "woo-hoo!" . . . I guess they'd rather look at their cars than drive them, LOL

Mine is in the 91K ballpark now so it might hit 100K this year, though I don't drive it as much as I used to. I do take it on the road track several time a year, which it seems to like. Interested to hear more about 100K maintenance needs.

Mine rolled into 100K just this past summer (July 2016) at the 11 year mark. Can’t believe it has already been 11 years since I first drove it home brand sparkling new.
