Yeah, they said it goes behind the motor and by the tranny and they dont want to risk burning their hands doing it. All the Ford dealers I called said the same thing. They wouldnt do it on a Saturday either.

.7 hours was what it paid according to the service invoice they gave me but since it was a recall it was free.

didnt cost me anything and I just borrowed my dad’s car for the day and he picked up my truck.

And Dave- I swear I saw your old red coupe at Dakota steakhouse last night. If not your old car then it was another really clean red Jetta coupe.
