Computers in Cars now a days adjust the air/fuel mixture on their own for different types of gas used. I would put a bottle of dry gas in the tank. Use an isopropyl alcohol base, not methenol. It removes moisture, methenol doesn't. You can put in a fuel system cleaner too at the same time. You might also need to change the fuel filter. If the check engine light isn't on, the O2 sensor is ok. But if you don't get it running right the sensor might carbon up and eventually the cat. converter could load up and plug.

Why do you want that? what is the problem?

bad ground or worn out headlamp switch

Go to a salvage yard and pick up the whole harness, or take pictures and use that to fix individual melted wires.

the upper intake gasket that come with the head set are no good the upper intake has intergrated gaskets you my have two set on the car hope this helps

Look for a torn or busted radiator hose/heater hose/water pump leak or damage to the radiator

It sounds like the overdirve clutch is slipping or there is a lack of fluid. Check the dipstick in park with the engine running. It of course needs to be on the full mark. Cold or hot it should be near the full mark. Also look at the color and smell it. Transmission fluid actually smells pleasant. If it is dark and smells bad (burnt) you have a major problem with the transmission. Good luck

could be a shift solenoid problem or or clogged trans filter or even burnt up clutches you should take it to a reliable trans shop and have a diagnostic ran on it while you still have the chance to save your self a nice chunk of change

does the horn its self still work ?

under hood right side fender

have you checked to make sure the convertors are not stopped up? you also could check for a vacuum leak around the intake manifold as well.

IF IT IS HOT AT IDLE IT IS LEAKING, JUST THE ENGINE AND LET IT IDLE, WET YOUR FINGERS AND TOUCH THE CAST IRON PART OF THE VALVE NEAR THE BASE.

it sounds like it could be a bunch of things...first, id check to see if the lugs are tight. Try retightening them in a star pattern t make sure thats not the problem. If thats not it, it might be the inner and outer tie rod ends. Our car had that same problem recently and we had to have those replaced. If that doesnt fix it, then it will most likely be the ball joints on that side of the vehicle. it will take some time, but replacing them should fix some of the problem.......
Another thing id try before doing all of that would be the wheel bearing. If its loose or worn really bad, it will make the wheel wobble and even separate from the spindle if its bad enough. Had a buddy that had his F-150 do the same thing while coming from college. Luckly we werent going fast into a turn or the wheel would have came off *luckly the bolt held up into we came to a stop on the road. hope this helps out any

Most likely the windshield is starting to leak -
Second choice is - there is a drain hose - it may be clocked up - please pull up the floor man - and look for a rubber hose that goes down through the floor board.
If that hose is clogged it will only be wet when you run the AC and you will notice not much water coming from under the car from the drain hose which exits under where the passengers feet are.

Best of it - hope this helps

that trans is a aod-e they can at times be swapped check the wiring though

take it to local auto store and have them read the code to you it will tell you what the problem is

The temperature gauge sending unit is located in the front section of the intake manifold, just to the right of the alternator on the 4.6L engines. Got this from autozones repair manuals

Whattyou should do is hook up a meter at the sensor to see if its as erratic as the gauge.. If you get a better steady signal I would suspect wiring or a bad gauge . You stated the mechanic had better results hooked strait into the motor wich means the problem is most likely not the sensor or the engine. You could try removing the sensor and with an air compressor try to back blow the passage and see if that helps. Its possible you could have a chunk of crude floating around.

DID YOU CHANGE PLUGS ONE AT A TIME ,IF NOT YOU COULD HAVE MIXED UP PLUG LEADS HAVE A LOOK TO SEE IF THIS HAPPEND.

replace the coil
