Thanks guys.

No. I went up there and looked at the intake and it appears fine. I'm guessing that it was actually the intake gasket that blew? It is a damn plastic intake so who really knows

'01 LS8 with 113k miles. Was running fine the last time I drove it. Went to start it and there was a loud bang and lots of smoke. Car was towed to dealership and they said that the intake was blown. What would cause this? I don't want to dump a grand into a new intake if there is something...

Ok, I'll leave it in park. Thx joegr.

Update! I came home from work today and the starter was laying underneath the car. Apparently hitting it with a hammer and applying pressure with a bottle jack won't work....but let it sit for 16 hours and it will fall off on it's own.:confused: I never did put it in neutral, but will when I...

It is in park. Would that matter? I don't have a hoist so it is on jack stands.

Yep, those are the bolts I have removed. I'm at a loss. ???

I have removed both bolts (the top one is a pita). It's like it is frozen to the tranny or something. I tried whacking it with a hammer with no luck. So then I put a bottle jack under it and figured that would break it loose, but it actually just started to lift the car.:confused: The tranny...

New development: Just for fun I tried turning on the heater this morning, and it is blowing 70* air. I'm really getting frustrated...

Cooling system is completely bled. I have 60* from the driver's side and 80* from the passenger side. Better, but still not what it should be. Where is the temp sensor on the passenger side? I guess I will check that next. Thanks, Hunter

Thanks guys. Its a 2001 v8...I am bleeding the cooling system right now. Thanks, Hunter

Thanks for the reply. I had it checked for leaks before I replaced the dccv. The shop said there were no leaks and evacuated and recharged just to make sure. They wanted $1000 to replace the dccv so I just did it myself. So...I have a charged system, new dccv, and it still isn't working...

Like the title says I am having a kid any day now and of course my ac has quit working. It blows 65 to 70* air out of the drivers side vents, and 90 to 95* air out of the passenger side vents. I had this problem over the winter with the heater and it was the dccv. Replacing it fixed the...

Either way it blows. I would say screw it and go without a/c, but I have my first child due in 3 weeks and he is gonna need some a/c when we go cruisin for hotties.

I replaced mine 8 months ago...and now its not working again! Is there someone besides motorcraft who makes this part? Thank, Hunter

V8 or V6? V8 Have you flushed the coolant every three years? Flushed it in April when I replaced the dccv Have you checked the aux pump (if you have a V8)? I have not. Did you pull the hoses at the new DCCV and check for clogs? No. Did you follow the correct bleeding procedure after the...

The heater in my '01 has never been great. It takes forever to warm up and never really blows out hot air, just warm air. We are having highs in the single digits right now and I am freezing my butt off! Anybody know if this is typical of the LS, or should I be looking for a problem. I know...

I screwed up when doing my driver's side vcg's. I have 14 bolts hoding the valve covers on. 5 of these bolts are longer than the rest...where do the 5 longer ones go? I am an idiot and didn't make note of this when taking them off. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks, Hunter

Thank guys. I ended up getting it off! Now I just gotta get it all back together!

Thanks a bunch DM, I'll give it a shot! Hunter
