Man, I try to offer something to fellow CEGers rather than try and rape someone on eBay, and I get harassed - sheesh! :rolleyes: You guys must be bored when you have nothing beeter to do than pick on a helpful CEGer rather than just let something slide. C'mon John be nice!  Anyhow I will take this oppurtunity to let Greg L, Chris A and Lee E know that I finally sent out your DMD's yesterday while under a good dose of Vicodin  *Happy, happy , joy, joy, happy, hapy, joy...* Why Vicodin you ask? Well, I got my upper Wisdom teeth yanked on Monday and thus I "stayed home" yesterday. Man was I zonked out, but sh!z did it hurt, I still have stitches in my gums! I got them pulled in the chair while conscious with just local anaesthetic - can you say ouch? The worst was llisteneing to the doc file done my jaw bone tith a file after it snapped a little! The doc said they had the biggest roots he'd ever seen on Wisdom teeth. I may take a pic of them and post it for you sickos to look at, in the Pics forum, later today. hehehe Peace..............

So far, all I've seen is a bunch of smoke and mirrors. IF the dual mode damper is so important to the long term health of the 2.5 motors how come it's not installed on the Cougar? Surely Ford wants to minimize warranty claims. What about other NA apps for the 2.5, like the MPV & baby Jag?
Frankly, I don't care if your name is Henry Ford the first. Give me some good solid info. to help me change my mind (which to date I've seen very little). Saying that a bearing failure is symptomatic of a bad damper design is a real stretch. Which bearing(s)? What was the nature of the bearing failure-spun, seized, scored or...? Was it isolated or pervasive? How about the crank-was it cracked, bent, broken, or...? Under what conditions did the failure occur? How many miles/hours of run time? Etc., etc.
When/if you can answer these questions, I'll have the requisite ammo to reconsider my original position.

Peace..............Ok Staz I'm hoping you didn't sell the one you promised you would hold for me for this week. The Money Order had already went out on Monday Morning. I notified you Saturday that it would go out as soon as you gave me the OK.

Bradness: The part was not installed on the Cougar for one big reason: It was discontinued. I have not collected data on the other applications the 2.5L is used, so with the difference in tuning/rpm/HP I cannot say that the damper will help them or not. I refuse to put any more data reguarding dampers on the net. Ford put it on the Mondeo and every other 2.5L powered vehicle in Europe. It costs them about double per damper to go to the new design (testing/retooling/other stuff). I highly doubt the with Fords current economic status they would simply waist their cash on something to lower cabin noise a few db and lower seat of the pants vibration transfer a few g's. However if you wanna pull your head out and think about what noise and vibration is : The noise/vib's are comming from the engine. The crankcshaft to be more precise is the cause of them. If the crank whips around in the block enough for you to feel it, then WTF do you think it is doing to the engine. Smoking causes cancer, do you believe that or do you need to get it first hand to believe it? Don't bother trying to argue this stuff.........the data is out their.
