2004 atx base neon. It has a low idle issue that I can't seem to resolve. It happens mostly when the car is up to temp. The idle drops to 500-600 rpm and the entire car vibrates. Holding the brake and tapping the gas puts the idle back to where is supposed to be for a smooth idle. I dont have to rea...

I guess I'm the only one that uses a Motorcraft FL-910S.

Takes the challenge of guessing what filter i need when i go shopping because it's the same filter that my focus uses.

PO put in a POS anchor upper torque strut, which promply cracked when I tried to torque it to spec after filling it. Only mounts I've seen online are anchor and DEA ($19 + shipping). Are the DEA mounts any good? I may just pull one from a junkyard... Did you get yours from rockauto? also see my rev...

adding icing onto the cake:

the Anchor mounts are ripped already. F Theses Pieces of SHIT.

Well, for the cost difference...

I totally agree. You get what you pay for.

Anyone have oem part numbers and prices? Couldn't find them in the part number section.

here's a picture of the casting job. I looks like they used some sort of grinder to smooth out the seam. Compared to the OEM this looks like hell.

Scratch the surface a bit. Might be painted inserts. The out side piece that holds the rubber is metal... poorly casted metal

r/tguy02 wrote:yeah never seen one with a plastic insert, its no wonder it crushed, that piece is metal from the factory as it should be with that much torque applied to it.

out of curiosity was "anchor" the cheapest brand on rock auto for these torque struts?

The only brand.

Good guys at rockauto shipped me this wonderful engine mount for my girl's neon. Her's had ripped the rubber. In my Rockauto order I got both the Upper mount and lower. ANCHOR Part # 2948 Upper torque mount ANCHOR Part # 2949 Lower Torque mount The lower torque mount seemed to have installed just fi...

that was the old alt i smelt burning up.. Never adjusted the belts in the year or so sense I've had them off doing the T-belt.

DORMAN Part # 265801 $19.01 @ rockauto.com http://info.rockauto.com/RB/265-801-007.jpg WIX Part # 58934 $8.28 @ rockauto.com http://info.rockauto.com/WIX/58934.jpg Both work like a champ..

HAHA I found out what the sound is! Alternator took a dump. G/F was going to my parents house and on the way the battery light came on.. than all the other dash lights came on... than the odometer read fuse Pulling up in front of the house the car just dies. $200 to overnight a alt from rockauto.com...

wow just realized i posted to a 5 yr old post... epic

you forgot a filter brand... Motorcraft Small FL-910S Motorcraft Large FL-300 Yes they'll work and so will Motorcraft 5W-20 synthetic blend motor oil. I'm on my 10th or so OCI with a FL-910s - motorcraft oil combo. It's also nice going to Walmart and getting the same shit for my Focus too. Keeps my ...

please?

About a week ago I did find the make up tube disconnected and partially melted from the V/C. I put it back on and taped it up before our trip but surely that sound would've started well in advance of our trip. The sound only started *that i noticed* on Wednesday. I did get a chance to actually take ...

On the driver's side? :-k I would say it sounds like a bad pulley or pump, but that'd mostly be on the passenger side.... A leak in your vacuum lines could possibly cause a howling, seeing as how it changes when you put load on the system. driver side is where you can hear it the most. I'm not 100%...

kinda sorta no and yes... The part of the air box that goes down and into the fender got removed cause of hitting a fox 3 years ago. I removed that stuff 3 years ago and never noticed the sound until now so I'm fairly certain this isn't the cause of the issue.

Hey the neon is making a howling noise at idle. When we come to a stop it howls or when its in N right after we start it up it howls. It does this when warmed up or when cold. If i introduce a load, like turning the wheel all the way to lock it goes away, or when I'm cruising down the h/w or even le...

During the install of my Gates racing upper and lower cooling hoses I also used gates PowerGrip thermoplasic hose clamps. I used sizes SB41 for the upper and SB48 for the lower. These clamps are awesome. They act like heat shrink sorta. After placing them where you want them you use a heat gun to sh...

just finished a trip to the outerbanks with these. 13 hr non-stop (except for fuel up and potty breaks) and there holding like a CHAMP.


During the install these hoses fit very tightly giving them a feeling that these were made to be the best.

i take it as no one has a clue as to what the PID would be? Crud.

http://i.imgur.com/Wtd9i.jpg Picked these suckers up off of rockauto for less than picking up normal hoses. As per Gates website they are no longer being made. These look beautiful, are really firm and look to hold there shape very well. Nice shade of blue that doesn't go with ANYTHING under the ho...

I assume you have the 40TE, since you have an 04. I skimmed through the 40TE section of the FSM, and it looks like there is no such sensor on the unit. The only electronics whatsoever are the solenoid assemblies, and input and output speed sensors, the latter doubling as the VSS. What made you thin...

yes. to prevent cooler failure, again.

Read the transmission fluid temp (tft) with out having to waste more money buying an actual gauge. Some one some where has to know these. I know the car has one.

My overall goal is to get an aftermarket cooler I just want to make sure that the one I do get isn't over or undersized.

I got a set of gates hoses on the way cause lsat week while doing the t_stat I noticed they were deteriorating internally. Got a set of the gates blue"racing hoses". Got a set of belts sitting in the tool chest waiting for hoses so I can do them both at the same time. Most of the items on your sugge...

What should I check out / do before we go? so far we've gotten the cooling system flushed. will have a OC and filter before we go brakes were just installed this last spring regreased the lower ball joints with some nice JT6 grease tierod en...
