What's wrong with her? I really hate the thought of having to have a shop look at mine, don't like fixing what they screw up.

Yes, but unless you take a picture of it (with a cell phone) while holding a light on it, you cant see it, since it's on the bottom. Otherwise, you will have to remove the fuse box. I have read other threads that list this as a place to get the code as well as behind the back seat.

Undercoated the wheel wells & touched up a bunch of spots under the truck
I have a 2nd can but need ramps to get the truck up higher to paint
I used a floor jack to raise the truck up for easier access

Before & after -flash makes it look glossy, but its not
Will probably give it another coat after I take another look tomorrow

Put new weather stripping in my airbox to get rid of all those extra noises that comes with no weather stripping.

Took another whack at trying to get my windows to stop squeaking every time they go up and down. So annoying!! Yet again, no success.

Default My truck today? Fuel vapor recovery hose

I found the hose that pulls fuel vapor from the electric solenoid valve, just left of the power brake reservoir, was really rotted. When you touched it, it crumbled in your hand.

I bought 4 feet of fuel line from Auto Zone and routed it back to the manifold where it terminates. Is there a Ford hose for this? Yes, but this hose with the clip retainer re-installed looks good and is 10 times cheaper bought in bulk.

I also wedged some felt black material between those hard plastic trim pieces on the dash against the windshield. This will stop a bunch of hard plastic rattles once and for all, I'm sure. Best part is that you can't even see the fix.

I feel better now and so does my baby.
