    Sprinkle 1/2 cup over the 'Bird once a week to resolve or prevent any malfunctions. Also, eat 1/2 cup once a week to avoid doing stupid things.
    'Works for me!

      I long for the day I could repair 90% of my car's ills with a screw driver and a pair of pliers.
      Give me back my 1973 Pinto so I can drive it more than repair it. Four-speed, of course.

      • Picked up a cabin air filter today and changed that out, might be time to get it out for a little run around town this evening.

        • Detailed the tbird yesterday (minus new wax) the sand top cleaned up really well this year. I was a bit worried as it had several more black fold lines, but they all came out. It definitely doesn’t look like new, but for almost 20 yrs old - not bad. This morning going in for an oil change. Next a new coat of wax and it’ll be ready to go. Need to think up a road trip.

          • Nice wagon Robert. I also had a '75. Dark maroon and no side trim. Took out the 4 cylinder and replaced it with a v6 automatic. I enjoyed driving it also, but it was a first car for my 16 year old son.

            • Replaced the aging and half-failing LED bulbs in my "supplemental parking lights" with fresh LEDs.
              These are wired to be on as DRLs whenever the car is on.
              I also replaced the headlight bulbs with Philips Crystalvision Platinum "whiter" halogens. Not as white as LED, but not jarringly yellow either.

                    • Had the radio replaced today (the old one was failing and causing a parasitic loss and dead battery problem).
                      New one is Pioneer with bluetooth, backup camera, single CD/DVD, and Android Auto.
                      I had to paint the trim insert panel myself to match the gold colour of the sand interior package, but I got it pretty darn close.

                      Here's the before:

                      Here's the after with the unit turned on:

                      It's only just installed, but I'm pretty happy with the upgrade!
