Same car, different question:
Mechanic says bad head gasket and diag. misfire codes 1 & 6, tested ign o.k.
I believe I have the standard v-6, 3.0 but will confirm this, (as an earlier answer stated) that the 3.0 vourtec engine would prob. be over my head.
I am thinking about taking off heads myself and take too machine shop for inspection etc... and replacing head gaskets.
I will go too the library for Chilton's info.... I tinker on cars and do basics, have torque wrenches etc... just not much engine experience... I think I want too attempt the head gasket replacement, at least I could open it up and have my fam. relation who is a mechanic take a look at it (not Ford Mech, is V.W. mechanic)
Car has 100,000 but was babied all the way, and looks good also.
What do you think, Go for it?
My Olds Shilloette has 264,000 and never any problem, my 2-subaru's (tinker on) 150,000+ when I bought them and replace bad motor, so a Ford with 100K and bad head gasket suckss
