I've never had a 5.0 with plastic timing gears. Quote Selected

*S.O.S* I Need help! Reply #20 – July 18, 2006, 10:12:41 AM In my book any ass rapage is to much. As for the plastic gears I've seen cloyes sets that the gears are basically hardend card board. Those where for the old chevy 250 I-6. That one blew my mind. Quote Selected

*S.O.S* I Need help! Reply #23 – July 18, 2006, 08:23:15 PM Just an ignition switch? That should only cost you about $500 or so. Hah, just kidding. They charged my mom about $250 to replace the ignition cylinder in her '00 Focus, so I'm guessing around that area. Unless the ignition switch costs a LOT. Quote Selected
*S.O.S* I Need help! Reply #24 – July 18, 2006, 08:29:28 PM In my Cougar, it was just a case of rotten gas. Shot down the intake got it fired, that told us enough, we just pumped the tank somewhat dry and added new. Mine sat for 15 years. Quote Selected

Either way, if we could have diagnosed that, we would have fixed it, but we didn't. Quote Selected
*S.O.S* I Need help! Reply #28 – July 19, 2006, 02:00:35 AM , I never realized you had to pull the wheel to change the ign switch. Quote Selected
