Thanks. I have relatives in Saint Cloud, so whenever I get up there I'll give you a shout, or just let me know if you know there's something going on between here and there sometime, we could meet up.

Good luck with the manual swap, I didn't want to go that route because I hate the thought of changing the wire harness and ECM (even though I would have been more familiar and comfortable with the driving part of it all).

Do you mean the "lock" and "unlock" function of the collar? I thought that would let the sheath loose to pull the cable free of the collar, I guess I misunderstood what it does. If there is a "next time" with a Focus ATX swap, I'll know what to do. Thanks again.
