It is hard enough so they won't be stolen but much easier to change compared to the 2.5 if that becomes necessary.

That is absolutely correct. I am not sure what is in the converter but Ford buried it far enough in the TC to make the converter thief steal the whole vehicle so they would have enough time to get the converter. You folks with the !.6 turbo need to be a little more nervous!

The converter on the 2.5 and 2.0 non turbo TC is part of the exhaust header The location precludes any body with a saws all and a floor jack being able to get any where near it, sleep tight! I suspect the 1.6 turbo is similar but I have not checked it out.

Injectors maybe but not the plugs., I If the clutch was slipping it would rev past 2000. You need to start with a scan tool or forscan! Keep us in the loop, I am not much help as we have no diesels here.

Don is correct about the scan tool. When you drive it does the left disk end up hotter every time ? If it does then you need to take a ride and get the brakes hot and get home and lift the wheel while it is hot to feel if there is drag. if so crack the brake line to see if you get a spurt of fluid and a release of the drag. Because you replaced the hose it would be very rare to get a bad hose, it would point to the ABS unit. If you slack the line to hose connection first you would test the hose also. The plot thickens, keep us posted.

you live in the north east what does the disk look like? Picture of the disk would be helpful.

?

What about Barn Doors?

Looks like the sliding doors are short, I might be out.

That is probably correct for most. The only issue is how hard the cooler lines are to disconnect. I pull the lines most of the time. The lines on my TC were enough of a pain that the drain and fill was easier for me , having a lift and a step ladder!

I would be surprised if the vehicle was driven during the flush. The reason for the flush is to get most of the fluid in the converter exchanged. When the last 3 quarts of fluid is added let the TC run for 15 min that will bring the fluid up to check the level.

This will do a good job.

If the temp was 210 or higher the fan would be on, check the switch or temp sender.

I suspect the module that control the ac is stopping you. If you removed the Rear evaporator then you will need to block it off and recharge the system.

If you leave the TC idling does the gauge rise more than normal , When you are driving does the temp rise when you slow down? This is where I say either Forscan or a good scantool would be very useful.

Same here , I have no idea on a solution but is is good to know I am not alone!

Remember the propane cylinder has a safety pressure relief valve and if the temp and pressure exceed a limit the tank vents. If the tank is inside the vehicle it needs to be in a vented gas tight box .

Did the engine turn over be for the pump was worked on ?Looks like you should take the pump out and see if the engine turns over freely. Have any pictures?

That's healthy, still not holding my breath for the US version. Too bad for me.

Cool which engine?

I guess people who want Red TC's!

Always liked the look of those. Did you win on yours?

The Oem O-ring plug on my 2014 2.5 liter has 19 oil changes on it and is holding up very well.

Do you have a picture?

That could be a good thing but only if it fits your needs and the price is right.
