-> WC>I wish I dcould FORGET that car, too many repeat problems to mention.
-> WC>Short version extremely expensive "active alternator coil
energizer"
-> WC>solid state regulator replaced three times.

-> For the Regulator yuo should have went to your Friendly NAPA Auto Parts
-> Store. FORDS were famous for their voltage Regulator problems and NAPA
-> had a third party one buint ofr sale that WORKED.
-> The problem was that the Engineers listened to the Bean couintewrs and
-> built it with the absolute lowest (Cheapest) parts avaialble.

-> AND Fpord learned NOTHING form that experience as Later they had the
-> same thing(Premature Failure of Factory Parts) happen to their Ignition
-> Modules.

-> WC>Three front ends, three transmissions and 4 fuel pumps, ect.
-> WC>Under 80,000 miles, Windsor not Cleveland 351.
-> WC>Others shared my experiences with that model.

-> You must be VERY HARD on Cars. That is very unusual even for a FORD.

The tipoff should have been purchasing it used at a DEALERSHIP 
for a mere 13,000 miles on it for a negotiated 1,300 dollars.

Worst mechanical device of any sort I ever owned.
