I f you're not a mechanic then you'll have to find one , one you can trust and if you don't like the price then they're probably who you should go with , do you have the tool for the ford fuel lines , can you dodge rust ?

Just get rid of the damn thing ! Ford will never admit it but this thing is just another one of their bad ideas It is NOT needed for the truck to perform well .Took mine off 13 years ago !
