    BOO replaced, still shifts from Park

    I guess I need to pull console out and have a look at the cable you mention. I have only had the car a couple of months, and don't know what recalls may have been addressed. Will ford still address these recalls? If there is any way to tell if this recall has been done, please advise. I'll let...

    BOO replaced, still shifts from Park

    On 93 ATX: I had a BOO code, and my shifter came out of park anytime (key out, on, etc). I replaced the BOO, no code anymore. BUT, I can still shift out of park anytime. All fuses are good. My cruise does not work, so I wondered if both problems could be from my cruise deactivation switch...

    Front 60K, Accessory Tensioner

    I am doing my front 60K on a '93 ATX. When I removed the accessory belt tensioner, the small line up pin (i guess this is what it is) snapped off , and is sitting in engine. Is this repairable by taking back of off tensioner and mounting a new line up pin, bolt, etc? Thanks in advance.
