That would explain why I could not find it. He bought the motor it's complete, I suggested he replace the tensioners and guides at minimum.

Where would I find the VIN numer on the engine block? I was hoping to run it on my carfax account and maybe get an idea regarding the possible mileage. It's a used motor a friend wants to buy and the mileage is a mystery. Thank You.

Will do thanks for the replies. I have had zero luck trying to get an m8-1.25 male to female stand-off bolt here locally. For now I am going with a slightly shorter belt the 1073 vs the 1080. (I'm currently running the 3.70 super charger pulley). There are 2 pulley diameters a 70 mm and a 76...

I want to add an extra idler between the alternator and the power steering pump to reduce the belt slap there. Does anyone have any details / specifics regarding the pulley, spacer, or the flange bolt required? The idler spacer / bushing is proving very difficult to find around my city. If...

My procharger has about 45k miles on it. A tip I got from a local engine builder here was to get the procharger hot after its oil change and open the fill hole. This would cause some pressure to escape due to the heat/expansion, you can hear the pssstttttt. Seal it up again and as the unit...

Pull the line off of the fuel rail pressure sensor, see if you smell fuel. If it failed and the diaphragm ruptured you could be flooding the engine.

Congratulations and welcome. If it's stock get a tune from Marty O to get rid of the terrible factory transmission calibration then you'll really enjoy driving the car.

First and foremost, no lock-up in any gear other than 4 th. TC lock-up after 55 mph as well

You can find a proper double din installation kit at Crutchfield . Com

Thanks, it was about 1988, just after I bought my GN. That was behind my high school, lol.

I had a 70 with a 351, bench seat column shift 355 gears and a 3200 stall converter. I sold it to explore other interest but it's still on the road.

We just had an 06 impala in the shop doing the same thing. Not saying it is your problem but the catalytic converter was partially plugged / fouled. It drove well under part throttle but could not Rev past 4800 rpm at wide open throttle and it would not shift at wot either. Now the mm has 4...

Do you have a spare throttle position sensor you can try? Does the up shift issue occur in the 2 - 3 shift at full throttle as well?

The solenoid lead tray / pack has been problematic as well. The truck will go into limp mode, you turn it off start it again and it's fine for a while. I've replaced 2 on different trucks recently.

I have the weather fit cover from cover anything. It is waterproof, car stays very clean even after heavy downpours, it fits well, snug. I recommend folding in the mirrors when using it. https://www.coveranything.com/car-covers/?find=2003-mercury-marauder-478623

Would you ship to Canada?

Sorry for the loss hopefully you are ok.

I had a similar issue with mine twice. The first time it was the 30 amp starter relay located in the junction box under the hood, replaced it and I was good for 2 years and then..... The second time the harness on top of my transmission wasn't properly plugged in, the diagnostic scanner would...

I have access to a Bosch ac recovery / fill unit. The shop owner who is a friend told me to source a compressor, drier, accumulator and orifice tube as even his costs are crazy for a compressor locally. I'll get one online and have it shipped here, replacement will be done in the spring. My...

Gave the car a good once over before winter storage and I noticed that the a/c compressor is leaking around a seal (front portion of the case) not the shaft . What are the best options, rebuild or replace? If replacing is the best way to go can anyone recommend a unit, stock, after market...
