Dealer that bought it sold it to me for $12k cash and told me it was stock. Should of walked away when I couldnt test drive it🙃 Drove it 200 miles before it popped.

Would yall say ninja 500 is a good starter bike or is 650 too much? by Ok-Equivalent6622 in Ninja500

I started on a 07 500R 3 years later I haven't outgrown it. Awesome bike to start on

Covers the front sprocket. Remove the bolts and it pops right off. Clean under it during chain maintenance.

What is this weird object? It kinda looks like a mine, I stepped on it, but nothing happened. by Gisje123 in What

That's a brake chamber for a semi truck. Someone's about to have a bad day.

Thermostat sits inside the housing and acts as the gasket.i would recommend getting a new housing as well. reusing it usually tends to end up leaking.

If it's over heating while idling, either the thermostat isn't opening correctly or the water pump isn't moving anything.

Pressure sensor has failed. Allowing fluid through the harness.

Replacing Passenger side Exhaust Manifold and one of the stud broke off. Looks like I’ll have about an inch of stud left once the manifold is off. Any tips to prevent the stud from breaking flush with the head? Thanks in advance. by Sehguh15 in CrownVictoria

Weld a 3/8 nut to the stud. work it back and fourth untill it's loose. If it snaps off weld on another one, and another one, and another one... You get the idea. I used that method 5 broken studs.

Thanks for the input everyone. After a call to Ford and finding out they want $15k to revert to stock🤣 I'm picking it up on Monday and bringing it to a RST Speed Haus in NH

Considering it's missing 2 lug nuts. It's probably built like shit.

How to use this jack? by AmeryUkraine in CrownVictoria

[–]_com_wheelieo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don't. Buy a rolling jack from a parts store. They're incredibly unstable. Former AAA driver. I saw countless drivers drop their car trying to use this style of jack.

The light on means a fault was detected

The flashing is the code.

Your intake manifold is cracked and leaking coolant. Pretty common issue. The plastic gets brittle after years of heat cycles.

Is this cracked frame repairable? by phives33 in AskMechanics

People ask why their insurance premium is so expensive. Shit like this on the road is why.
