A big issue that I recently had, and it's only applicable to those who own a manual V8, was the clutch cable rubbing through a power steering line.

Where the clutch cable passes over the rigid power steering lines (LH Lock transfer line) on the steering rack, had rubbed through to the metal sheath on the clutch cable, which in turn has rubbed through the rigid pipeline.

The pipeline is easy enough to get out providing you have access to car ramps. Pipeline will cost $27 from Ford. I however couldn't get one soon enough, so I had it silver-soldered at an engineering firm who while I was waiting also gave me a beer. Happy days and it only cost $20.

I checked the 6 cyl versions at the wreckers and the same pipelines are configured differently on the steering rack. So you guys are safe. I'm sorry I didn't get any photo's - I was too busy running around trying to find a fix.
