It is your valve seals. the 99-02 mustangs and crown vics were notorious for the valve seals going bad around 100k miles. Usually when you would notice it would be decelerating,being stopped, and then gaining regular acceleration in gear. Mainly, it happends on deceleration when it is noticeable. that is your problem guaranteed and not your money back.

Nope. It WAS his turbo. I've already rebuilt it and it's on it's way back to him.

Will do I thought for sure it was valve seals too, but told Jen to just yank the turbo off to see what would happen. Immediately stopped smoking.

So he's gonna run it or wait for your built motor? I'd run it personally but one would understand if he wanted to stop wrenching for a minute.

Let me translate:

He received another distributor yesterday, but the rotor he took off of his old distributor would not fit on the new one. After fighting with it for a good 45 minutes, he decided to just stop trying and left the car the way it was. He will be looking for another rotor that will fit properly, today.
