Re: Code 171 Repair - Parts Question

Glenn, FWIW, I used an ebay product made by Dorman. It worked fine and has been running fine. I just did the repair a couple of weeks ago so only time will tell.

Ed, picking up your reply, I'm not sure the gaskets were the problem in the first place. I always thought the isolator bolts were the main issue. My gaskets were in great condition and I felt a bit wasteful throwing them away and replacing them.

By the way, Glenn, the kit from Dorman has everything and more you need. If you only want to replace the isolator bolts, then it might be worth getting it at the ford dealer. It cost me $91 with shipping to get the kit off ebay. The bolts at the Ford dealer is $8 x 8 = $64. That's a whole lot cheaper than buying the kit.
