Well at 150,340 miles the 3.9l died, from what i can figure out lost compression in two cylinders, was running on that for a bit, and god knows what else, i guess this just may be a blessing now i can work on getting the 5.9 put in it, for now im rollin around in a 96 taurus. itll get me around for a while.

Well the truck had a long life and with some work it can live on even better so hang in there and get that 5.9 swap done and make her rip!
