    D2 2003 mystery plug

    Fixing something is never a waste of time. I would prefer that a plug associated with the security system is not dangling around loose in the wheel well area.

    D2 2003 mystery plug

    Thank you sir, I believe you are right. 666 seems a bit ominous :) I looked through all 999 connectors in rave and missed that one. Now to find where that fucker plugs in, looks like I need to pull the rear trim panels.

    Headgasket issue with pictures

    I paid $180 to have the heads machined and a valve job done, well worth the money.

    D2 2003 mystery plug

    D2 2003 mystery plug dangling down in the right rear fender, about 4" to the rear of the gas filler tube. What the heck is if for? It is not the tail light.

    Found my mold problem. What's the most likely source of the leak?

    My D2 did the same on the driver's side. Water is supposed to drain at the bottom of the A pillar, but was damming up and then leaking through holes behind the trim panel in the foot well. If you look under the vehicle you will see a pinch seam at the bottom of the A pillar, pry it open with a...

    CKP (Crankshaft position sensor) clip

    Keep in mind that most vehicles at the u-pull would have been stripped down to the point that you can gain easy access to the connector, it is worth taking a look even if you just see how and where the harness runs. I think you are going to have to pull the upper intake to get better access. You...

    Engine Question

    Major differences between 4.0 and 4.6 would be: Heads if 4.6 has SAI - the 4.0 heads will not have the SAI ports. You can swap the 4.6 heads to the 4.0 engine and that solves the problem. 4.6 rotating bits: crank, pistons, connecting rods and cam are different. The rest is the same. You can...
