Its too bad that you didn't make it. As you can see from the pic's we had a pretty good turn-out. I am not sure if we will be doing a cruise next time. We will have to wait and see what everyone wants.
Tell Jamus I want to see pic's of how he did the mod. Or I could just wait until next meet if he is to lazy to post pic's. LOL

you probably should change your fuel filter, "possibly" breaking something else is considerably better than the fuel pump eventually breaking because the filter will be so clogged, then you'll really be screwed.

Yeah, get someone to change the fuel filter. Even if something else breaks while its being changed, the fuel savings in the long run would far out weigh the cost of a replacement pump/injectors/piston etc.
If they are anything like the Tempo/Topaz filter they should have a repair kit for the fuel line in the aftermarket. I am not sure though. I haven't run into this situation yet.

ya im going to jack my car up and take a look at it sometime this week, i dont even understand what they can break the lines come off before the filter, and the bolt is just holding up the clamp...sounds like some lazy ford stealership mecahnics to me. but after spending 700 bucks to get my inner and outer tie rods and pass caliper changed i really didnt care
oh and aparently u need to really secure those lips down, a couple bolts didnt line up from the last time i had it on so i didnt bother and now the lip is on the 400 somewhere...if your in the fast lane and u see it next to the medium i would appreciate you picking it up :) lol
