Congrats on your purchase. We had a 94 Taurus with the 3.0 Vulcan. Great car. We had an issue which I believe is common with age and miles. The water pump is mounted on a plate, which mounts to the engines block. The plate corrodes and will leak, dripping on the exhaust system creating a lot of...

I am not a fan of where Ford mounted the TFI on the distributor. But if you have owned this vehicle for years you are aware of the history of the TFI. On several vehicles Ford moved them to a cooler location. It could be other things. But I would double check it.

Burning that much oil your cat is getting clogged. This will make your car sluggish. I'm guessing you might still be running the original spark plugs?

You need a lot or property survey. Your realtor may be able to recommend a registered land surveyor. The property corner irons should not have been removed. Your county may have an engineering/GIS department which might have a plat or map showing your property in relation to existing roads and...

I would stick with a 10W30 for prolonged highway speeds.

Thanks for the share!

Do you have much engine movement when you put the car in gear? Just curious if worn transmission & engine mounts along with cold weather are contributing to your issue. Good luck.

I have had better results with a 10W30, yours may vary. With the miles on it you will have a clogged cat nearing 190,000-200,000 miles and don't forget the O2 sensors. Just drive it and monitor it and keep it topped off.

Change your coolant at the correct time (perhaps a little bit early) and you most likely won't need to replace parts. At least not at 60,000 miles.

This is neat. I'm thinking an old bike chain would work well. Edit: The image was a GIF video. It shows the chain being placed inside the wrench. The wrench then works as a lever, tightening the chain around the filter for removal. Sorry the GIF did not work.
