I was a died in the wool Ford man until my last (emphasis on LAST) F 150. Seems the drunken Canadians that built the POS forgot to put all the gaskets in the rear window so it leaked like a sieve, took it to the dealer, their response is "They're all that way and there's nothing we can do about it" that and the mighty V-7 it was powered with. Seems that if you floored the gas it banged and knocked rattled and smoked, of course the dealer says "their all that way nothing can be done" setting at an idle folks would ask me where I got a 1/2 ton powerstroke. Ford finally made them fix the back window, I finally fixed the engine by changing out the injectors. The dealer keeps calling me wanting me to trade trucks, even used my credit to sell some low life a Windstar off their Buy-Here Pay-here lot. Finally wrote the state of Wisconsin asking them why these thieves have a dealer's license, retail credit license and insurance license, they couldn't answer but they did assure me they wouldn't be bothering me anymore (doubt it all the State employees are to busy protesting the Governor at the state capital). Bought the wife a new Dodge mini van a few years ago, the power train is great, if you floor the gas that little 3.8 V-6 starts spinning making power, no rattles, no squeaks, spark knocks, vibrations or other drama. Only thing is the rest of the van isn't that great had problems with the HVAC (3 times) windows quitting and other issues indicating build quality ain't that great. My only hope is that all the unionized dirt bag workers that Ford had to lay off have leaky roofs on their houses so they can set on a wet couch, it's be just like the joys of Ford ownership. Next truck will probably be a Toyota, next van a Honda. I'm tired of supporting these drunken whiny union bums that helped get Mr Sorrento elected to the white house so they can STEAL money from my retirement accounts (value of stock AND bonds)so they can continue to show up for work drunk and not do their jobs building crappy vehicles and whining that I shouldn't buy a "Foreign" car.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
