Will do, just probably wait until its back together in couple of weeks, before being taken apart again at the other end for the 6 focus box speed conversion.

sc - you'll need to let us know how the manual conversion goes.

What are you doing RE the ECU? Are you keeping the AWD?

Here's what's in store if you have rotten fuel lines.

Krusted any rust spots (rust killer), tretrosealed underside everywhere and replaced all fuel lines.

Surprised how much rust was lurking (only surface) if left much longer would have needed welding.
