Really. Just in case anyone doesn't believe it I'll snap a pic of it next to my car.

[edit] and all stock except for the Kamei lip, that he also bought in 1981!!

265k on my 99 V6 stock motor and rebuilt transmission haha with some tune up it runs strong still!

 

[f23.Tetsusaiga]

i dont have a cat and i have no 02 sensors so i think thats why i have blue smoke. either way, i dont care.

and yeah, i wont be purchasing another 25 year old ford til i can actually afford to maintain 2 vehicles and have the time and space to work on them

O2 sensors / catalytic problems do not result in blue smoke. That'd be oil.

I'd check the compression, to start with.

Just hit 140K...

Still the original engine & tranny ← But started to notice some rough shiftings occasionally, so it might a time to replace the AT fluid.

Was almost one year ago, so I guess I have 5 more years till I hit 200K.

just rolled over 150000 yesterday, surprisingly. i'll probably give it one more oil change and that will be it til it dies
