Does anyone know what that plug is for? The one between the Defroster and the power antenna switches?

3/4 Rear view, driver's side. I don't know why. It just IS.

Driver's side. No body side moldings over here. The rear door molding was coming off, so I pulled the rest off on this side. One thing, though ... I did NOT know that the rear door molding covered an access hole in the door skin!

I painted the deck lid reflector because the Mercury gradiation stripes were fading. I also shrunk the back-up light openings and installed blue bulbs.

Passenger's side. Notice the crease in the doors? I ran them across a STOP sign post in 2004. ARGH!

I need to resurface the headlights, and find a way to lift the bumper cover. Other than that, I like the look of the front in general.

Maintenance & Modification Logs
| Date | Type | Mileage | Title / Description | $ Amount | | 04/07/12 | Maintenance | 152598 | Vacuum Leaks No More
So, I found the vacuum leak and I bought a new PCV valve and some tubing to replace the hard lines coming off of the PCV valve.
Fixed the stalling, but the oil leak and the 'noid light remain.
PCV Valve: MGD PCV198 | 8.02 | | 04/06/12 | Miscellaneous | 152598 | Vacuum Leaks SUCK!
Swapped out the oil pressure switch and the oil filter extension gasket. Now my oil 'noid light is on, the drain pan bolt is leaking, and the engine won't idle.
I replaced the PCV Tee, and I pulled the vacuum line off of the driver's side valve cover. Talk about a BITCH to get back on! Now there's a vacuum leak somewhere! | 0.00 | | 04/04/12 | Repair | 152420 | Moar Parts to Repair Oil Leak
Had to buy a drain pan, 3 qts. Max Life oil, Fram High Mileage oil filter, and a gallon of anti-freeze, and an PCV tee.
PCV Tee: MTM 47072 (In the HELP! section)
Oil Filter: Fram HM2 | 55.95 | | Total | 63.97 |
