MY motor between 91 and 93 is noticeable. Even when both fuels have ethanol. Takes a few tanks to notice. Could be picing up some more horsepower.

This is still a great car in itself. Had audi's, bmws, gto's, a transam, even a 70's meredec benz 240d with a modified 300 turbo diesel. You doing fine with this car for sure. Tempted to try the intercooler modification myself. Car is in the garage for the winter. But, want to play around...

This is my 1st modern car I put away for the winter. It is also my 1st summer car at house without a heated garage. What are you guys doing for the winter? I am running it once a month, and driving it in and out of the garage to move the rotors around and tires. I run it with the back...

It helps some. I do it for my dailer driver and pickup truck. It works on rust. Doesn't do much until you have rust to saok it in. I am doing it to prevent the car from rotting out underneath. If your trading in the car in a few years, it might actually hurt the value. Overspray on oil...

GT and eoboost that much different to insure? Paying an extra $10 a month over other cars in house. ecoboost is enough trouble for me. Add another 125hp and no lag. I drive 110 miles round trip for work through rural roads with potholes and plenty of little rocks to chip paint. Got my...

Mine went down a bit too. The car has been in the garage since mid november though. Need to trickle charge the battery this week. Took it out a week go to wash it.

With the older version of the mustang, how much ws ford charging for their tuning from the dealer? I cant believe how low a rpm this motor does most of the time. I have been going between normal and sport mode for driving. Just wish the shifts weren't so crisp in sport and the motor goes back...

Looks wise, my 2024 is starting to grow on me. Was tempted to buy a used 2020 ecoboost with the performance package in dark blue, no stripes. I drive backwoods roads to work, thought the stiffer suspension would be a beast with all the potholes and crappy road repairs like culvert replacements...

13% difference in rpms / torque. If v8 is similar in modes to my ecoboost, just change driving modes. Not sure what is available in what, but would go 3.55 if it was the convertible. What are your plans for the car? There's a thread about this from febuary. I have never peeled out with...

Saw cobb just got hit with a almost 3 million dollar EPA fine. Wondering if this will be trouble for the future of tuning packages. Another outfit who does diesels got a bad fine too. Wanted to buy a 2020-23 used, but the rpices were high compared to buying a 2024 on a good deal.... Saw ford...

Update. Doesn't seem any worse. Did notice it's a little bit lower than it was before. Close to the min mark. Checked it cold, not ran in a day or two. Pinkish color reminds me of dow o-ring grease I used when working on gas turbines at a power plant.

Hard to tell for sure. Going to figure out how to see the transmission fluid color. See if there's some foaming in it. Was playing with sport mode vs normal. Might leave it in normal for awhile. Also using the highway to anoter job site vs ounty route to my main job site. Since the cooler...

Anybody know the transmission fluid color in the 19r80? Muck in tank looks reddish. Wondering about the cooler too now.

Dont want a problem, but my pencil grinder can come out the toolbox while the heads on the bench......... Been a few years.

Not too wild about my coolant overflow tank 2024 ecoboost 2200 miles. Oil looks ok, no foamyness in there. Keeping a close eye on her. Might remove the tank and clean it and see if it comes back. Tempted not too, if I need it as evidence to do some cylinder head work, gasket, crack, etc.....

Ill ask. The gas station is a little over a year old, so no old tank atleast.

Found a gas station selling mobil 93 for4.15 versus the 4.65 much elsewhere here in upstate NY. Half of the gas stations here sell 91 non ethanol as their only premium option. Gonna give that a try I drive aroud 110 miles a day for work. Got sick of cheapie economy cars. Got maybe 2 months...

Any update on this? Been about a year. Lotso freasons turbo motors go. Used to have several 2.2 turbos from chrysler I played with in the late 1990's early 2000's. Putting alot of fuel in a little volume. Cooking vales, cooking pistons, head gasket can't take it. Don't know much about the...

Thought I was out of luck. Work to home is a little over 50 miles. Its only ecoboost, but it is real easy to do 80-85 without knowing it. I literally do 90% of my driving with cruise on.

I got 1200 miles so far. Seems the car does not do as well with 90 octane non-ethanol gas. Mom n pop gas station has it for 60 cents cheaper a gallon. I prefer gasoline from sunoco overall. My local convient store (stwearts) far as I know sell 87 and 89 sunoco and 91 non-ethanol gas. Seems...
