Hello all. My name is Chris, in Lititz, PA and I have a 1995 Supercab XLT 3.0 automatic 2wd with 238,000 miles that I was gifted by my brother in law after he blew a head gasket and didn't want to put anymore money into it.  I replaced the passenger side head because it was cracked. I replaced the cam synchronizer, oxygen sensors, thermostat, spark plugs, plug wires, brake drums, some brake lines, brake pads, a bracket for the shifter, the dashboard light bulbs, the radiator support, the drivers door window regulator, still need to replace the passenger side window regulator, replaced the power steering hoses, water pump, egr valve, exterior drivers door handle, tailgate handle, door latch switches, window washer/wiper/turn signal switch. I need to replace the fuel filler neck as it leaks when the tank is full and is causing a vapor system fault code. Saturday it started running rough due to a cylinder 2 misfire and a bank 2 lean condition. The check engine light blinks when The throttle opens more than about 20%. The blower motor quit also. Horn doesn't work either. I'm sure I'm forgetting something as I had been working on it for about 2 years. I'm running Evans Waterless coolant, Mobil 1 high mileage oil. The Mobil 1 did clear up a noisy lifter but I still have either a lifter or something making a quieter tapping noise. I'm planning on replacing the lifters and pushrods. Planning on replacing the rocker arms with 5.0 Windsor arms for a bit more lift. Pic is after a test fit for the new radiator support. Left side middle leaf spring is broken, I have a new one just need cooperative weather to fix it.
