It wasn't very hard, maybe a little tedious... you have to login to Owner.Ford.Com, download the update to a usb drive and then install via the USB port in the center console. Here is a link to the instructions, provided by Ford:

Back in '88 when I was shopping around for a new car. I was at my local Ford dealership and I asked the salesman if the new Mustang came with V8's. He replied no only V6's they're too small for V8's....

Glad you got it fixed.

What’s up guys... been a while. I actually dusted Marilyn today in the hopes of driving her and taking some photos. Been too busy at work and kids, plus spending wayyyy too much time with Wruby. I knew this would happen.

Current mileage on Marilyn this year = ~ 200.

call me Tony. Hehe

If the weather cooperated this morning I would have finished correcting my car’s finish. I was able to get the driver’s side hit with compound to correct some scuffing that my winter cover created. Looking good so far! Something therapeutic and hypnotizing about running a DA polisher on a car.

Tomorrow back it.

Ha ha. Salesmen should be trained in the fine art of automobile sales. A little knowledge goes a long way.

Drove it and got code p2282 again, air leak between throttle body and intake valve. Looks like I'll have to take the intake manifold off and try to figure out what I did wrong when I had it off last week.

I put the top down and drove to Bass Pro Shop and picked up some ammunition for my GSG FireFly .22LR semiautomatic.

maintenance

So I'v been busy working on my v6 car and yesterday I replaced the lower and upper door hinge's. It was time consuming but I followed a step by step process and it took about three hours. The door now shuts without any effort and lines up. I also found a nice third brake light in better condition and installed that as well. My next project will be replacing the O/D button on the shifting stick and the bezel which is in poor condition.

Just a note: I went to Tire Rack here in Denver Friday and bought a nice set of tires, it took about 10 minutes and I was on my way home. Nice service at the warehouse.
