    Those are good older cars! Did you replace the motor with an aftermarket unit or OEM part? One thing I have learned is with some components, getting the cheapest one can line you up for doing the job again in no time.

      Aftermarket. OEM was over 5 times the cost for each, like hundreds a pop. Aside from that, just wanted to replace it for the sake of fuel economy. Thing gets 18 highway, that’s less than my dad’s huge f150
