Default A little work on my 03!!! Pictures

Earlier today i decided to change my transmission fluid along with the eaton oil change as my car recently passed 100k miles.

B&M fully synthetic ATF
Mobil 1 Synthetic 10w-30 motor oil for eaton
Motorcraft fuel filter

i failed at changing my fuel filter as some sort of tool is needed to remove the filter. anybody can help with what kind of tool i need, it will be a great help.

if you notice the passenger sidescoop missing it's cause a crazy female driver collided with me and is currently and ongoing process with my insurance.




old tranny fluid





stainless steel bassani



















there's a 97 gt somewhere in some of these pictures as its currently awaiting for registration renewal, it is non operable.

hope you enjoyed my thread

go to sears or autozone and tell them your trying to take off the fuel filter. i don't know exactly what its called, but it clamps around the line and you push it into the retaining clip which spreads a spring and wala it breaks loose. same as ac lines, and fuel lines

Bro, You need to seriously power wash that motor! I just did mine. Sprayed the whole thing down with simple green n let it sit for 2 min, then power washed it.

not to be rude but next time put 2 jack stands under the front end. Especially with the 1 you are using being so far out im 100% sure i could have walked up and with little effort had that right side tire back on the ground and the left rear in the air.

Also having only 1 jack stand and it being on an unven, sloped surface it could have easily shifted to the side should you have hit it wrong, grabbed the wrong thing to pull yourself out from under it and kaboom youre stuck under a car with severe injuries.

steigemeirer refills the eatons with mobil 1 10w-30, so i went ahead and did the same.

and C.O.Cobra, yes, i know it's in need of a wash. car isn't my daily driver so it usually collects dust. But it will be washed this week.

and the smell of the supercharger was horrible, probably smelled worst than skunk smell.

smelled like rotten blue cheese.
