Those "screws" always come loose on my car for some reason. Undertray ends up dragging on the road. I just leave if off now.

If I lose anymore, I'll probably take it off or figure out another means of attaching it. Nearly $30 for the 2 pieces after shipping.

I went to the local ford dealership I ordered the new motor mount to, come to find out they ordered the wrong part. The mount is AA5Z-6038-D

They ordered AA5Z-6038-B. Thank god for overnight shipping from Detroit up to my dealer in Michigan!

This was my old motor mount:

Replace the retainer clips. I think it was like $5 for a pack of four. They get worn out and the fasteners come loose easily. Or keep it off, I do.

That's kinda what I figured. Anyone have a part number for those?

I didn't even think to check if the retaining clip fell off too. Guess I need to replace those as well.

PTU got me, she's down for the count and undercover. Hate seeing her on the shelf, but until a better day comes

 

[Bronco2fan]

Well, that sucks. You don't feel like with messing with her, or not able at this time? Best of luck.

Not able to right now, spent the savings I had getting my truck ready for a trip, knew it was on the way out and hoped it would hold out a couple more months but I started getting the propane smell earlier this week and I didn't want to push it and have a tow bill on top of everything. Got the cover for free so at least the Florida sun wont destroy anything while I wait to get a PTU

I figured the smell meant the fluid was overheating and pushing out, didn't even think to check the vent. Thank you!

 

[kryptto]

It could be disconnected or clogged up allowing that smell penetrate the engine compartment.

I've noticed some fluid on my PTU (2012). It runs great and I change it every 30k miles. I'm going to look at mine. Thanks.

I had a burning smell from the PTU puking fluid onto the exhaust due to pressure buildup. Bought the updated extended vent tube and it’s been not leaking since I cleaned it all up in early January. My vent tube had blown itself off the fitting from the pressure.

when JYMS kept saying he smelled propane made me think. he might still have issues if he is hearing it. this might be just yet something else.

Definitely at the someone dropped a fork in the garbage disposal level of noise but it's still inconsistent. I couldn't help myself and took her for a rip and gave her a wash today. I already miss my car, plates too full to even look into it for another 3 weeks though.

New shoes and an alignment for the 1996 New Zealand SHO.

Tire label on the tread made me smile a bit. Strange to me.
