Daughter #2 is moving to Portland OR. That's a whole bunch of miles from her dug in the Texas soil mechanic. I'm in the process of "updating" her 95 Cougar 4.8L single cam motor in prep for me not being there when it pukes and dies/or will not start one rainy morning.
I'm replacing:
Water Pump
IAC valve (cost more than the Water pump!)
Serpentine Belt
Rear Tranny Seal -- slight leak
I'm thinking about replacing:
Plugs and wires have about 50K on them. Platinum 4 plugs.
Alternator -- still charges
Battery -- about 2 years old
Servicing:
New Coolant
Oil/filter Change
Clean and re-oil K&N air filter
New Mercon V in Tranny
Any other suggestions? The car has 105K miles on the odo.
