  1. Try parts.ford.com Enter your VIN for vehicle specific parts. My '07 F-150 doesn't have any kind of shield under the truck.
  2. That is correct. You only have one key, as the spare key is a clone of the first key. Possible? You need to do some diagnoses. Find out exactly why your car isn't starting. There are different scenarios. What if you lost one key? What if you lost both keys? A good tech, with the proper diagnostic tool interface, will be able to solve your problems. Or you can attempt to write the keys into PATS with Forscan. What can be done is to erase the key which is lost. What can be done is to write a new key. What can be done is to erase all of the keys, and then write new keys. Okay, so you lost a key. No big deal. Delete that key from PATS. Get a spare key made. Program the new key in.
  3. That lawyer ad keeps showing up as if the lawyer paid a lot for the ad
  4. Apparently, I don't get a golden throne. I get a link to turn off ads (which will probably give more ads), and a lawyer.
  5. If you're not fussy about global politics, how workers are exploited in 3rd world countries, and the sustainability of shipping consumer goods across the globe - I have a pair of these boots. I like them.
  6. Download the maintenance schedule for your VIN. That will give you an idea of what is recommended.
  7. I'm getting this torque wrench. The price is right. I hope it works.
  8. It's actually not mine. GBL did the writeup.
  9. How long was this forum down?
  10. You can follow the door jamb sticker. Double check the tires. Make sure that you do not exceed the tire's max PSI.
  11. I have a wagon. The headrests on the seats do a great job of obstructing the view. And with limo tint, I can't see much anyway. Which means that I've never intentionally turned on the rear wiper, or activated the washer spray.
  12. There are coolers which can cool engine oil and transmission fluid. With the tube & fin style coolers, I use a special kit for mounting. For anyone who really wants to add a transmission cooler, you will need to splice into the fluid return line between the OEM cooler and the bypass valve. Number 3 on the diagram.
  13. There's already a subforum and thread for wheel fitment. You need to compare your OEM wheel to the wheel that you want to use.
  14. I guess nobody is worthy of his intellect. In a way, I'm glad that I don't deserve it.
  15. I wonder why this guy even bothers. After he posts a bunch of stuff, he goes back to delete everything.
  16. Originally, all vans were imported to North America as passenger wagons. Then the seats, door glass, airbags, seat belts, etc., were removed. So it should be the same HVAC system, minus the duct work and vents blowing to the 3rd row seats. I'm not certain if the configuration for cargo vans has the floor vent under the driver and passenger seat which blow hot air to the 2nd row passengers' feet, or the cold air vents in the "B" pillar behind the driver and passenger doors. The HVAC system itself, should be the same fan, heater core, AC compressor, AC condenser, AC evaporator, etc. For commercial use, there are rooftop cooling systems. If you are building a camper van with a cargo van, there are rooftop fan and vent options. Hot air rises. Cold air sinks. A fan and vent should release heat, and circulate the cold air. Some are designed with a thermostat switch so that it activates as needed. https://youtu.be/fNNSVDdzUv4?t=95
  17. Here are a few videos which might help you.
  18. Go to another mechanic. A decent mechanic doesn't just put in a can of refrigerant and quotes $2,000. Assuming that the compressor is working, and not busted, how does the mechanic know that the source of the fluid loss is at the condenser? The AC system has a compressor and a condenser. Although either or both parts can fail; there could be a leak, or multiple leaks, in the lines or at the fittings. A tracer dye may help with finding the leak. In some cars. Fuses blow and relays go bad. Look for a mechanic who will do a little more diagnostics. Some shops specialize in air conditioning.
  19. 2013 model year is slightly different than 2014. Here are the OEM specs. You need to check the specs on the wheels that you have.
  20. For the next person who is having an issue with their van being "emissions ready", here are some Parameter IDs that you can use with FORScan. I hope it helps.
