struggles to turn-over. When trying to restart, the ground wire from the battery cable to body heated and burned up. I replaced the entire battery cable.
I cleaned the ground points to the body and frame. The ground to engine I could not reach so I added a second cable from the battery-to-frame over to
the block of the engine. The issue still remains. If cold, the engine starts up quickly. Once warmed up, struggles and burns up any small gauge ground wire to body.
I need to wait about a half hour before the engine will start without issue.

Few cars polarize the staff here as does Ford's high-performance pickup truck, the SVT F Lightning. When we say polarize, we're not talking about the marketing term a GM exec might throw out to explain why the Aztek looks the way it does. ("The Aztek's style polarizes people.") No, the Lightning has broken our staff into those who think a high-performance pickup is dumber than bottled water and those who think it's cool.
Case in point: At our 10Best eliminations for , where we grade each vehicle on a point scale, Patrick Bedard gave the Lightning a three. Brock Yates gave it an We expect the Lightning evokes a similar reaction from you, and for , the Lightning either gets dumber or better—it's got more horsepower, a shorter final-drive ratio, and subtle trim changes, including a new grille and front bumper, and clear lens covers for the taillights.
Introduced in , the original Lightning followed a tried-and-true Detroit formula: Install a big engine in a small body. Small in pickup-speak means a two-wheel-drive regular-cab body, into which Ford slipped a hp, liter V Performance was good for a pickup—0 to 60 in seconds, seconds in the quarter at 86 mph—but nothing special in carland.
Twelve thousand of those Lightnings, priced at just under $22,, were sold between and After , the Lightning went on a four-year hiatus until a new model based on the current F debuted in
That new vehicle used the same two-wheel-drive standard-cab layout—although at a higher $31,plus sticker—and knocked some of us off our feet. It could roar to 60 mph in seconds and still tow a pound burden and carry pounds of stuff. Others thought that making a pickup go fast, despite its speed-sucking flaws, such as major weight and a raised center of gravity, was a complete waste of effort.
Ford and SVT didn't try to convince the world that the Lightning made sense and produced a total of only of these hot-rod trucks in and
Thanks to a 90mm mass airflow meter (10mm larger than last year's), a larger intake-air opening in the fender well, and a higher-flowing intake manifold, SVT engineers have netted 20 more horsepower and 10 more pound-feet of torque from the supercharged V The horsepower now stands at a massive at rpm, and torque is pound-feet at rpm. The Lightning runs $32, -- only $ more than last year's model -- and for that money, you get more horsepower than in any other production vehicle sold in the U.S.
For power freaks, the good news is the new Lightning has a shorter final drive— vs. —and that means acceleration times have improved dramatically. Sprints to 60 mph now take seconds, second quicker than in the previous Lightning. The quarter-mile now whooshes by in an amazing seconds at mph, faster than an SVT Mustang Cobra and only a few ticks behind the $55, Mustang Cobra R, which performs the feat in seconds at mph. Top speed also crept up 3 mph to
Although the brakes remain the same four-wheel-disc setup, our test truck needed 12 fewer feet to come to a stop from 70 mph than did the '99 model, which needed feet. Work the brakes hard, though, and they fade more than we like.
Unfortunately, a week of snowstorms that coincided with the Lightning's arrival prevented us from obtaining a skidpad number. We expect the new truck, which other than a switch from Monroe to Bilstein shocks continues to share the suspension and tires with the old one, to hit the same g on the skidpad.
Speaking of snow, although the Lightning's smooth throttle tip-in and excellent-shifting tranny—the best in Ford's stable—do their best to dole out the power smoothly, the high-performance tires and forward weight distribution make it a sheer horror in the white stuff. Just park it when it snows.
On drier roads, the Lightning still has a stiff ride and a heavy feel, although it's less ponderous than every other pickup. Throttle response is, well, lightning fast, and only when you try to really hustle it through hard turns does the truck's suspension reveal its primitive pickup origins.
Many of us think the sheer thrill of the Lightning's thrust makes a strong case for this high-performance pickup. But that does not answer the question: What does Car and Driver think of the Lightning? That, of course, depends on whom you ask.

Zimin obeyed. Then the prince, spitting for grease in the major's ass, began to slowly enter him. Zimin nervously crawled along the bed, but the prince was larger than him and with the weight of his body he simply pushed the major. Into the bed, never ceasing to try to fuck him in the ass.
Finally, the defense was broken and Zimin, instead of pain, began to get pleasure from the fact that the mighty, hot member of the rod of the young prince fucks.
