When the engine really got hot is there a possibility you may have over expanded some parts and now the engine is sort of tight and is not spinning fast enough to start.
Check for spark and fuel delivery but ......................
Hello, The hitch extension is available I believe at Tractor Supply. It goes into the receiver just like the normal size receiver parts do and can be changed like current hitches. What you want is a drop hitch with an extension, or an extension that allows any type of hitch to be added to the end.
There are some hitches that have an adjustable drop end, but you will need to do some looking on the Web to find a 1 piece extension with an adjustable drop. You may have to buy a separate extension and plug in a drop hitch.
When you have a height problem between the towing vehicle and the load, sometimes you can change wheels or tire profiles on the trailer or camper to level the load.
Check out Draw-tite, Tractor Supply, and possibly Ranch-Hand products. There may be Hitch parts on sites for Construction trailer equipment.
4.5 qts. 5w30 (preferred) or 10 w 30 w/ filter change. Filter is wix 50140 oor Fram 3387a. You should be able to cross those numbers to whatever brand you have available.
Check to see if you have a local uhaul store. They usually have a hitch for any kind off car. If not , check Google for locating a hitch for your make and model.
the only way you will know for sure is to try it. chances are it should be ok. depending on how far you plan to travel, you may want to have a front wheel alignment performed WITH the bike on the back, because if the front end moves up slightly it may change your camber / toe, adversely affecting handling and tire wear.
Should come with complete instructions for your particular model car.
Have you purchased the hitch yet? Once you have the hitch and have reviewed the instructions, if you still have questions, please return and we will try to help you.
Please purchase your hitch from a brick and morter company in your neighborhood. An auto parts place iw where I would look. Don't try to save a couple bucks using mail order. It is hard to talk to the salesman of a mail order company with your concerns. You will also be assured of getting the proper hitch for your car the first time around.
Ford trans fluid has a slightly higher friction coefficient than does most other fluids.(allows less clutch slip on shifts) Your trans capacity is about 8-10 qts therefore what you put in is fairly diluted. If your unit has not been recently serviced, likely adding that fluid will actually be good for it. Either you will notice no difference or you may feel slightly firmer shifts. Although some people will likely disagree with this, I actually intentionally cross mix fluid in many chrysler and gm vehicles but you need to know what you are doing. Bottom line is don't worry about it!!! What is of concern is that you needed a quart of anything. Find where it is leaking and fix that!!! good luck
Drain engine oil and replace oil filter(your local automotive store will have a book telling you what oil filter you need to buy). You've probably been using a multi-grade 10-30 or 10-40 weight oil. Or a straight 30 weight oil. Regardless, replace that oil with one grade heavier, single-weight of oil. During warm months, use 40 weight; in the winter (depending on how far the mercury dips in your part of the country) use 20 or 30 weight. Slightly thicker oil won't hurt that worn engine, and if your battery is good, it'll turn over fast.
