I just did 100,000 mi. Tune up to include : timing belt, pulleys, water pump , hoses, belts, plugs, wires, o-2 sensors, rotors, calipers, pads ( all 4 wheels), shocks, transmission flush and fill with new filter. Now I want to change all of the sensors but I don't know what or where they are. Since I am not doing the work could you give me a list of all the sensors. Also can you recommend anything else I can do, I changed the antifreeze and thermostat too. The truck runs great and was garaged up to 89,000 miles. I have kept service up and there was a carfax when I bought it. Anything you can recommend would be appreciated. I would like to keep it for a couple more years. Thank You.

You have already done everything that I would have recommended doing at that mileage. As far as replacing all of the sensors, it really isn't necessary as they will be replaced as needed. In my professional opinion, you'd be spending a lot of money for no reason if you wanted to replace all the sensors before they were bad

Thanks for the diagrams, they are a big help.
Is there a way to adjust the shift points on the transmission, it has overdrive and shifts fine on an open road but if your on a road where the max speed is 50, it wants to shift into overdrive but due to speed it will slip in and out of o'drive. Will this eventually ruin the tranny and can I set shift points all the way thru the gears to shift earlier. I would not do it I would take it to a trans. shop. Thanks Ralph

So glad you were able to use the pics. The trans shift points are determined by the transmission control module. I used to have a ford that did that. There was nothing to be done so I would just shift into drive in those situations. It really doesn't hurt the trans but I know it's annoying. I'll do a little more digging to see if there's not a more unorthodox way to solve this
