Spent most of the day in a teams meeting and staring at a computer. Ran a service call for my side gig after that for a second opinion on two cracked furnace HX’s
What are you working on today?!

Learn how to crimp properly and also don't poke for power and if you poke a wire make sure you weather proof it after.

Dude even used the heat shrink crimp fitting, just didn't heat it to weather seal it. Nice

Jagoff says "make the ding go away" for the brake warning light...
Look at it for an hour. Find out the brake assist motor is not being activated.
Throws a fucking fit. Says 'I just wanted you to make the ding stop by cutting the chime wire'.
Yea no boss... We don't play like that. You have 2 choices pay me the hour I have and take it, or use the energy I still have to move forward and actually fix the problem...

This happened to a potatoes chip fleet a few miles away a few years ago. Over night 7 of their vans sounded like race cars.

21 terrain, no heated seats, no communication with seat module. Only code is a u0100 that ain't gonna tell me dick and an antenna short to ground apparently. All the fuses check out good except no power to rear defrost, the horn fuse? (But it still works) or escl. This was on the floorboard.
And then I find this missing a nut.
And now I have a bunch of codes for esc and restraint system and still no comm with scm
This is one of those times I wish I paid for alldata to get pinouts on stuff. It'd make playing find the gremlin a bit easier.

Wife let me get started on putting a sub panel in the garage after the kids were down. Spent about 2 hours running conduit so far. The main panel is total opposite side of the house from the garage. I had to take down a ton of drip ceiling but got a lot done. Ran about 70’ of pipe. I’ve got to make the last bend into the main panel still and the conduit is into the garage below where I’m mounting the sub.
90% sure I’m going to put in a 60A circuit even though I don’t need it. I want to get my compressor on 240v, two circuits for outlets and a 40A for my garage heater.

Finally got the nose off, old J nuts way better than new stuff. Can't teardown further until I grind off the bumper carriage bolt heads.
I should pull all the tin off so it's easier to work on over the winter....maybe even get the 79 f350 from suspension on, and have disc brakes!
I haven't found any 8 lug crown vic ifs, so ttb it is...
I forgot how roomy this thing is cleaning out to pull trans tunnel, also checkout minty oem "lunar blue" vs cheap metallic blue earl scheib...

Pulled apart and resealed the top end of an atlas that filled the plug holes full of oil and took a couple coil packs with it. Got a feeling there's a crankcase pressure issue I could t find since it pushed oil out of the plug on the cam solenoid too. But for now it's not running on 3 holes and I got the lady goin again for pretty cheap.
Why anybody would wanna swap one of these in somethin is beyond me. Sure they probably make some jam but the awkward fuckers take up a lot of real estate and they aren't super fun to dig into

Swap? Someone's been watching the Nivlac57. As for me I'd do it because in the Eagle it's probably easier to L6 than to V8.

Tryin to get a gen 4 swap running. Kind of a mess. One of the main power wires started fucking smoking when I put power to it so it's all coming out and starting over with a stock harness. Not about to try and fix a melted mess on top of somebody else's backwards wiring.
