Coming to this thread a bit late but how were you able to change #14 without removing the AC compressor? I can't tell how having the radiator out would help either? Need some advice on reaching this hose TIA.

I've got the exact same situation on my '91 3FE - valves done a few months ago, EGR delete, definitely coming from engine bay, sounds like right in front of me in the driver's seat. Recently had a guy fab me an exhaust section coming off the Y pipe, re hang, remove some rattling shielding and...

This is what has me nervous, I know that the PO was not into normal maintenance and I've done a lot of other work on the car to know first hand. Messed around with the kickdown and gas pedal cable last night, that was a nice suprise getting too aggressive with the pedal cable adjustment- turned...

I would hope that they put the right amount of fluid in when changing my fluid/filter. I'll check tonight after work using this method. It was done at a local "general" mechanic, I would say it's between quickie lube and dealer as far as quality of work performed. They did not adjust the kick...

I've read a bunch of threads but none of them seem to mention my collection of transmission "issues" - trying to determine what is normal vs what I should take it to a shop to get worked on. I have a '91 full time 4WD which I understand is the A440F auto transmission with ~247,000 miles on it...
