A milestone...if one likes the number 7.

 

[Grog6]

That's pretty low mileage.

Did you mean to do that?

Yes, at the end of the day for what I got it for I would have spent more buying the individual bends and pipes I actually need.

Those are the longest sink P traps I've ever seen!!

That's pretty low mileage.

Considering that I bought this car three years ago with 39,000 miles on it, I'm working it pretty hard...

I got Lazarus in '99, with 38k on it. I broke a rod last year at 550k mi. I hope yours lasts that long too.

I'd need about three more boxes.

I think the converter is coming apart in this transmission. Filter had a fair amount of debris in it as well.

I think I'm going to start posting every single T-Bird I see out in the wild. Spotted this one last night.

That trans is done. I wouldn’t even rebuild it, just get another core to rebuild.

That is from metal on metal; if the direct clutch is working ,(3rd and 4th work), it's the tc. it is not long for this world.
I'd recommend an 02, and get it rebuilt. You need a tc too. I usually use the one that comes with the 02 trans. flush the lines carefully.
I have seen them that bad, but the car came in on a flatbed,lol.
What year car is his on?

Is that not a urinal valve at upper left? Never seen one on a sink.

 

[1997ThunderbirdLXV6]

I've been perusing transmission schematics, and it occurred to me that the torque converter drain plug, if inserted too deep, could touch whatever the thing next to it is (pressure plate? lockup clutch?). That would cause massive metal shavings I'm guessing.

 

[dDUBb]

Flushometer .. for a urinal or water closet ( aka toilet ). That's where the flushing water comes from.



The trap is part of the porcelain.



This is a trap for a sink. You can pee in here also.

Got a new video card... Here is my setup now, an AMD CPU and an Intel GPU. Best budget build option it seems

Was sick of my Radeon RX7600s random game crashes. This Intel B580 cost the same as the RX7600, it's running faster, and has not crashed yet

I am impressed... hopefully Intel keeps making GPUs

Ive never tried their gpus but i built an i7 3770k pc and its been at 4.2 ghz on air for 8 years. Very satisfied.. and the most i do is play dayz or assetto corsa so i dont need the best pc ever.

Hell your mileage is lower than mine. Good to see some other granny tbirds around.

This is a 62TE in a 2010 Town and Country. Funny thing is once I put it back together with a new (unclogged) filter and fluid it ran and shifted great. Guy doesn't have a ton of money so we are weighing our options.
