Well, Ken made a great suggestion. We need a chatty thread here as well. So here it is...Useless banter and pimp cups away.

Yeah he told me about that. I was confused at first..I was like How did he get your email? Then he told me he put an ad on CL. I was like oooh ok. lol

lol, small world ain't it. He's gonna help me install it cuz I have no idea wtf I'm doing. Duratec was very different beast.

Yeah really. Sounds like a plan. We gotta wait till we get our new intake first though..lol. I'm still waiting on an answer from cfm about my tracking number. I ordered the intake on Saturday and I haven't gotten one yet. If they don't email me back I'll have to call.

Just bought an 03 Orange SVT with 92k on odometer. Brining it back form Jersey this weekend. Gonna get stock intake from focus_family's husband. Nice guy btw, found his ad on CL
You've probably heard this already, but make sure the timing belt was either done recently or you do it yourself

I have a buddy at a Ford dealership that ran the VIN for Oasis and is gonna give me the report tonight or tomorrow. I was going to do the timing belt/tensioners, water pump, tranny flush, oil, spark plugs and whatever else to "spruce it up" ! Especially the timing belt. Even my old man is scared to touch that though, might have to actually take it to a shop! The OBD II scanner showed some exhaust codes, so gonna do Mil cheater for rear and bite the bullet for the front o2 sensor. It seems to have been riced a bit (ebay intake) and the exhaust is loud but stock, maybe he gutted the lunchbox or something.

Also gonna condition the leather/interior, detail, restore the headlights and grab a pair of Blazer projector fogs.

i ran oasis and the last warranty repair was in 07 at 16,000 miles

dalers website shows it having 48,000 miles.

i wonder why the CL ad says it has 8,000 miles


dont get me wrong. 48K is still low mileage for that year. def a nice car.

wait a sec i thought we had a deal setup for me to buy the intake[scratch]
I have no idea whats going on. My husband doesn't keep me very informed about what he is doing with stuff. I didn't even know he had posted the cl ad. Communication error. I'll talk with him when he wakes up this morning.

looks like you have it all covered then. If i remember right, Tousley Ford has Motorcraft o2s for around $50
