Thanks AWAR! When you say the dash has to come out, do you mean the dark section around the gauges and stereo, or do you mean the whole dashboard (the tan part)?
Also, how long and how difficult it it to remove the HVAC box?
Thanks!
Hi everyone! I am hearing a clicking and occasional light thump under the dash. This only occurs is the temperature is change from hot to cold, or cold to hot. Most of the time the sound stops after a minute or so. Does not occur when the any vent selection change is made. I can switch it from...
Hi Hamfisted, I have an EB 5.4 with the dual zone climate control. Are the actuators the same part number? I just replaced the one on the top of the HVAC housing (kinda behind the glove box). Still have door bumping sounds. Maybe I changed the wrong one?

Good luck!
With 204k mi, it would be worth checking all the vacuum lines. Especially the big elbow on the back of the intake (I can’t remember if it’s connected to the throttle body or the intake manifold, buts it’s back there.) Check all the rubber elbows, hard lines, and connection points. There could be...
Finished. No more SES light or P0170 and P0174 codes. Runs great, but there is quite a bit of steam coming out the tail pipe. I'm hoping that it's from coolant that found it's way into the cylinders when I removed the intake manifold. I'll drive it around and check it tomorrow. Goes without...
Could someone help me confirm the torque specs for the throttle body assembly and intake manifold? I have found the following online:
Throttle body assembly = 7 ft lbs
Intake manifold, 1st = 85 in lbs, 2nd = 18 ft lbs
Thanks!
I recommend Crutchfield . Look for an install kit for the type head unit that you are installing. Way easier than trying to figure out and splice the wires.
I found a new Motorcraft manifold at a local dealer! $255.01 out the door! So thankful!
Inspecting with my novice eyes, the seals appear to be intact. No obvious signs of leaking. Hoping the plugs look normal when I take them out tomorrow.
So far it's not too difficult. It's meticulous, but it's...
