paulymano is on a distinguished road
I have a 4.6is 2003 with 117,000 miles. I recently had to replace the crankcase ventilation systmem and the oil separator because it froze up on me and created major havoc. If you drive in short distances in the extreme cold, this is a known issue. I also had to replace the valve cover gasket. Additionally my clutch fan went out and had to be replaced. One of my O2 sensor (right side pre-cat) went out and had to replace that too. Total bill over 3K. Not very happy about that and for a moment thought about getting rid of the 4.6is, but realize that I love my ride. Going to keep her running until she's on her last leg.
