One member says you got ripped off,not sure if he was meaning the car or what you just had fixed. If he new any better he would realize you did not get ripped off on the price of these repairs. Maybee he/she will understand that once this happens to them.. He should look up the part and read up on what has to be done top get at this part...
Where behind the engine are these plastic pieces or better yet do you have the part numbers or pics? I got 140,000 on my "95TI and never had this issue occur yet. Are we all doomed to have this occur to us?

Forget it...I found it on another thread.....Thanks all
