Ford is going to throw some penetrating oil on them, and hopefully loosen them up for me...I probably should've shot them up last night for them, while I was under there.

Just had the PTU fluid done at a shop, $180 bucks.

It wasnt as thick as it appeared base on color.  Not molasses

They got a whole 5oz out via the drain plug.

So they ended up doing a flush, which was fine by me.

yeah.....hence the forced flush.

He was a little shocked, but was not terribly worried since he was able to get the flush to work.

He was pretty happy he was able to work it out and get it serviced considering the condition of the fluid.

He definitely lived up to his excellent reputation.

Hope they get it done 4 ya.

Well they said they loosened them up, and the washers were a bit loose, but ended up breaking the 2nd bolt with a breaker bar when the impact wouldn't handle it

I guess as many of you know already i'm very critical about maintening my car from A-Z .
I used some Pledge(yellow bottle)which brings out the shine and covers up any scratch marks.
I spray it on a microfiber cloth and gently apply and then use a second dry cloth to buff out the shine and bring back the luster.  Z  :)

Lookin' good Z!  I find Plexus to be slightly better, but at a much higher price.

Back in my motorcycling days there were always cans of pledge around at events/races.  It's a popular helmet cleaner as well.
