UM NO! 
Good thing I have an EVTM Paper manual for the 96.
That wiring harness looks just nasty! Could take a full day just to figure them out.
Air box could be re-used silver duct tape over the holes. Trust me it works!
Accordian tube looks ok, don't see any extra holes, just plugged up factory ones. Maybe get a metal CTA intake tube just incase.
The MAF might be ok as it looks like the CNG is behind the sensor. The joining of the 2 parts might be the problem though.
Mark I can't remember, but when we had the LIM off to clean it I don't recall CNG on the fuel rail. Could be a T lower down?
The problem I see is would they have flashed the ECU with CNG codes?
If no wires are going to the ECU harness then we should be ok there.
I belive someone still needs a cruise control cable....

I think I have some cable somewhere if anyone knows where to get some splice connectors. As for the air box I'm pretty sure I still have my stocker kicking around. Just need to go hunting for it.

Ok I have a mod to do. How about a head gasket?  I have just finished buggering around with the car trying to source my coolant leak. Well From what I can see it may be coming from the block by the thermostat. Is it possible for a head gasket to let go to the outside of the block vs internally? It may still be a hose but its looking less and less likely by the day for that. It of course is in a bad spot to see what is going on. I need one of those mirrors on a stick or something. I took some pictures but Keith still hasn't shown me how to upload them.  Anyways....... As for you Keith while I was in the garage I found my old V6 air box and acordian pipe. I also found the pictures that we took last year during the UIM cleaning. This may answer the CNG supply questions. On the upside to my night (look at the time I just got done farting around with the car.) I removed my old air resonator that was atached to the air intake pipe. I was getting tired of moving it to try to find my coolant leak and or replace hoses.

Mark that sucks! Keith I think you may want to replace that cruise control cable now. If you haven't seen SVT ST PETE's clutch pic's look at them.  Cruise cable broke. His broke and pinned open the throtle.

I don't think I'd have the same problem, but yes. maybe since we're working on it I might wanna replace that. I'll go to ford tonight and find out.
Mark, we'll get that done. our hours are screwed, so I'll have to write a detailed how to for you.
Rob I'll try and call Coreys today to see if they have a 99 tan dash in stock.

98 dash. Not 99 Keith. Also Rob is going to double check but if I'm not mistaken all dashes are interchangeable. Since he has both cars.....

I give up the car is going into Ford tomorrow to have them source the problem. Wish me luck. I really hope it is not a Head Gasket.

So were at 12 people with the ladies? Just have to check as I need to order the chicken breasts from my supplier in a few days.... Don't worry I will get extra.  These will be my contribution to the Que! So no one needs to bring Chicken! I know it's BYOM, but I'll get the poultry. If I can't make it, someone better pick them up from me...... So far so good though.

Yes Jenna is coming. Lets get a list togeher of what people are bringing. For the record Jenna and I will be on the good ole Atkins kick at that point but meat is good. Maybe some bring dessert and others snacks and what not. What do you think Rob?
