1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have 
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for 
interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and 
Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the 
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles 
for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all 
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary 
for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the 
three-month period ended March 31, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of 
the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1994.  
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and 
footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for 
the year ended December 31, 1993.

Certain items in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified 
to conform with the presentation used in 1994.


2.   ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK

In February 1994, Federal-Mogul sold in a public offering 5,750,000 shares of 
its common stock which generated net proceeds of $191 million.  The Company 
used approximately $190 million of the net proceeds from the offering to repay 
bank debt outstanding, including debt incurred for the acquisition of SPX 
Corporation's automotive aftermarket business in October 1993.


3.   EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

The computation of primary earnings per share is based on the weighted average 
number of outstanding common shares during the period plus, when their effect 
is dilutive, common stock equivalents consisting of certain shares subject to 
stock options.  Fully diluted earnings per share additionally assumes the 
conversion of outstanding Series C ESOP and Series D preferred stock and the 
contingent issuance of common stock to satisfy the Series C ESOP preferred 
stock redemption price guarantee.  The number of contingent shares used in 
the fully diluted calculation is based on the common stock market price on 
March 31, 1994, and the number of preferred shares held by the Employee Stock 
Ownership Plan (ESOP) that were allocated to participants' accounts as of 
March 31 of each of the respective years.  

The primary weighted average number of common and equivalent shares outstanding 
(in thousands) was 32,977 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1994, 
and 22,427 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1993.  The fully diluted 
weighted average number of common and equivalent shares outstanding (in 
thousands) was 39,365 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1994 and 
28,827 for the three-month period ended March 31, 1993, respectively.  

Net earnings used in the computations of primary earnings per share are reduced 
by preferred stock dividend requirements.  Net earnings used in the computation 
of fully diluted earnings per share are reduced by amounts representing the 
additional after-tax contribution that would be necessary to meet ESOP debt 
service requirements under an assumed conversion of the Series C ESOP preferred 
stock.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results 
         of Operations


THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1994 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1993

First quarter 1994 sales increased by 12.1 percent to $460.3 from $410.5 million 
in the same 1993 quarter.  Almost 9 percent of the increase is from sales of 
products to the North American automotive aftermarket.  The increase is largely 
due to the October 1993 acquisition of SPX Corporation's aftermarket business 
(SPR).  Aftermarket sales represent 63 and 62 percent, respectively, of the 
Company's first quarter sales in 1994 and 1993.  Excluding Europe, worldwide 
sales of original equipment products were up nearly 18 percent over the 1993 
first quarter.  This is attributable to the increase in North American light 
vehicle production for the 1994 first quarter compared to 1993.  Sales in Europe, 
excluding the April 1993 sale of a non-strategic business, declined from 1993 
about 6 percent, primarily as a result of reduced vehicle production in the 
region.

The Company's operating margin increased to 7 percent from 5.3 percent in the 
first quarter of 1994 compared to 1993, an increase of $10.2 million over 1993 
to $32 million.  The Company attributes this improvement to additional sales 
from the acquisition of SPR and cost savings from the integration of aftermarket 
businesses acquired during the last two years and global sourcing activities.

Pretax earnings grew to $24.2 million for the 1994 first quarter compared to 
$12.5 for the same 1993 quarter.  Net earnings improved 100 percent to 
$15 million or $.37 per common share on a fully diluted basis in the 1994 
first quarter compared to earnings of $7.5 million or $.23 per common share 
for the first quarter of 1993.  The earnings increase is the result of improved 
margin on higher volumes and a reduction of interest expense due in part to 
lower borrowing rates and less debt outstanding.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In February 1994, the Company issued 5.75 million shares of common stock in a 
public offering which generated net proceeds of $191 million.  The proceeds 
were used to repay $190 million of the $245 million outstanding on the Company's 
$300 million revolving credit facility (revolver).  At March 31, 1994 the 
revolver balance was $55 million.  In February 1994, the Company issued 
$4.5 million of industrial revenue bonds to fund the construction of a new 
manufacturing facility as part of the Lighting, Electrical and Fuel Systems 
consolidation began in 1993.  During March 1994, both Moody's and Standard & 
Poor's raised the Company's senior debt ratings to investment grade which is 
expected to reduce the cost of any future borrowings.

Working capital was negatively impacted by an increase of $60.6 million in 
accounts receivable during the first quarter of 1994.  This increase is 
attributable to strong sales in March, particularly in the North American 
automotive aftermarket.  The Company believes March aftermarket sales were 
heavily influenced by adverse weather conditions experienced throughout much 
of the United States in January and February resulting in increased March 
sales and a corresponding higher receivable balance.  Working capital was also 
affected by spending of approximately $10 million against rationalization 
reserves established in 1992 and 1993 primarily for the elimination of 
redundancies in sales staffs, overlapping warehouses, and distribution and 
administrative facilities of recently acquired automotive aftermarket 
businesses.

Net cash used for investing activities consists primarily of capital 
expenditures for property, plant and equipment to implement process 
improvements, new product introductions and to generate cost savings.  
The Company expects capital spending for all of 1994 to approximate 
$55 million and believes cash from operations will fund all capital 
expenditures.  Other cash from investing activities consists primarily 
of cash received from finalizing certain aspects of an acquisition made 
in a previous year.

EXHIBIT 10.26    EXECUTIVE LOAN PROGRAM
                 -----------------------        


                            ARTICLE I
                             PURPOSE
                             -------

        The purpose of this loan program (the "Program") is to 
assist key executives of Federal-Mogul Corporation ("F-M") in 
retaining F-M stock and stock options by providing them with a 
source of liquidity.


                            ARTICLE  II
                            ELIGIBILITY
                            -----------

        Except those who are non-employee Directors of the 
Company, the senior executive officers ("Executives") and members
of key management of the Company are eligible to participate in 
the Program.

                            ARTICLE III
                          LOAN CONDITIONS
                          ---------------

        3.1    Loan Amount - Each Executive may borrow up to the 
sum of (a) fifty percent (50%) of the spread between the 
exercise price and the fair market value of the F-M Common 
Stock underlying the exercisable, vested options held by the 
executive and (b) seventy five percent (75%) of the fair market 
value of the restricted shares held by the executive, which 
values shall be determined by the plan administrator in good 
faith as of the day immediately preceding the date of the 
issuance of the loan.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the 
maximum amount of any loan or loans outstanding to any one 
executive shall be One Million ($1,000,000) Dollars.

        3.2    Loan Term - The term of each loan would be the 
earlier of (a) the termination of the executive's employment 
with the Company (whether voluntary or involuntary or as a 
result of retirement, death or disability), (b) the exercise 
of the F-M stock options held by the executive or the sale of 
any restricted shares held by the executive and (c) five years 
from the date of issuance.  The loan will be payable upon demand
of the Company upon maturity thereof.

        3.3    Interest Rate - The interest rate on each loan 
will be established by the plan administrator based upon various
factors including comparable interest rates charged in 
connection with brokerage margin accounts and other loans of 
similar size and characteristics.  The interest rate will be 
variable and will be set quarterly. Interest must be paid 
annually and any unpaid interest would compound quarterly.

        3.4    Security/Offset - In order to obtain a loan under 
the Program, each executive officer must execute all of the loan
documents required by the Company (e.g., a promissory note, 
assignment of proceeds, etc.).  An assignment of proceeds from 
the sale of shares of stock acquired upon the exercise of options
or sale of restricted shares must be executed or collateral must 
be pledged to secure the loan.  Collateral can include, among 
other things, the common stock of the Company owned by the 
executive.  The Company shall have the right to offset from the 
amounts owing by the Company to the executive any amount of the 
loan that remains unpaid.  The Company has the right to require 
an additional assignment of proceeds or additional collateral 
if the Company determines, in good faith and in its sole 
discretion, that such additional protection is necessary.  
If an additional assignment or additional collateral is 
required and not provided, the loan shall become immediately 
due and payable.


                          ARTICLE IV
                    MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
                    ------------------------

        4.1    The Program shall be administered by the Vice 
President and Treasurer of the Corporation, who shall have the 
power to make all determinations needed in connection with the 
Program, to adopt forms of loan documents, to exercise all 
rights and powers allocated to the Company under the Program 
and to do anything else which is helpful or necessary to the 
proper operation of the Program.

        4.2    The Company reserves the right, at any time, to 
amend, modify or terminate the Program, to discontinue making 
new loans or to cancel any outstanding loan by forgiveness of 
debt or otherwise and to require the executive to execute 
substitute loan documents.  

        4.3    The Program is strictly a voluntary undertaking 
on the part of the Company and shall not constitute a contract 
between the Company and any individual, or consideration for, 
or any inducement or condition of, the employment of an 
individual.  Nothing contained in the Program shall give any 
individual the right to be retained in the service of the Company
or to interfere with or restrict the right of the Company, which
is hereby expressly reserved, to discharge or retire any 
individual at any time for any reason not prohibited by law, 
with or without cause.

(1)  Amount represents the additional after-tax contribution that would be necessary to meet the 
     ESOP debt service requirements under an assumed conversion of the Series C preferred stock.

(2)  Calculations consider the March 31, 1994 common stock market price in accordance with the 
     Emerging Issues Task Force Abstract No. 89-12.

(3)  Amount represents the weighted average number of common shares issued assuming conversion of 
     preferred stock outstanding.

(4)  Amount represents the additional number of common shares that would be issued in order to 
     satisfy the Series C preferred stock redemption price guarantee.  This calculation considers 
     only the number of preferred shares held by the ESOP that have been allocated to participants' 
     accounts as of March 31 of the respective year.

(5)  This calculation is submitted in accordance with Regulation S-K item 601(b)(11) although it 
     is contrary to paragraph 40 of APB Opinion No. 15 because it produces an anti-dilutive result.
