Post Looking for help

Hey, posted this at the corral.net

Hey fellows, I drive a 99 Lightning, and I am looking for some help. You see there is this small intercooler leak that we all seem to be having. Ford keeps on saying that there will be a fix, but we see nothing of it. I feel we might have to organize like the 99 Cobra owners did when the hp wasn't quite there.

Here are a few links

Or this
"intercooler leak" <-- search string at F150online.com

From our FAQ page
http://www.webtechnik.com/lightning/...t.htm#IDAQB1BB
I can be reached at tundra_svt@yahoo.com

I greatly appreciate any help, and happy motoring! Looks like your 01 Cobra is gonna happen, now I cant wait to catch a light with one.

Forgot to add that 88% of us with 20k miles have already encountered this problem.

From my list that everyone contributed to. Scary, eh.

Some other numbers 60% of all that responded had the leak

average mileage of Lightnings with the leak = 14.5k miles

average mileage of Lightnings without the leak = 11.23k miles

Ofcourse, not everyone posted their mileage, nor has every lightning owner posted whether or not there is a problem.
