Looks like you need to edit your profile options to allow private messaging?

You can also run it dry in the mean time, just pull the intercooler pump fuse so you don't burn it out.

I ran my dry for a few months waiting for the replacement...you'll lose HP due to the higher intake temps, but you'll be okay.

so far i only have one option for a new one. and that would be lurker. is there an aftermarket one that is better? if so any websites? would it be better to run it dry than to keep fluid in it and just keep filling up the resivor? if its better to run it dry where could i find the fuse for the ic pump?

if you keep putting fluid in it, you'll keep blasting it through your engine.

Dry just means higher intake temps and less efficiency = less hp.

It's actually a relay...do a quick search, there's a post I made asking about where it was and someone put up a diagram.

i think i can answer this one....no it will not fit UNLESS you have the adaptor plate that will allow it to fit...OR you find a lower and upper intake from the 01-04 and install it. from ford the cheapest i could get them to go down was 1015..shipped. i just had to prepay. i think that the first question i've been able to answer since i joined i know i'm still a noob. but im learning. this place is a plethera <sp? of knowledge you guys are awsome
