And I would argue that repeated cold starts and shutting your engine off without a complete heat cycle does more harm than not pre-filling your filter.
For the pre-fill crowd…..
Make sure the tech is pre-filling it correctly. First, the guy in this video makes good points on how to introduce debris into your engine. Secondly…..Instead of tipping the guy, get him one of these. :crackup:
Pre-Filler Device
The connector was very tight. Use a bit of dielectric grease and it will slide together. Took me probably 3-4 times to get them to mate up. After that it works flawlessly.
The Shelby name plate on a vehicle does nothing for me. Carrol Shelby did some great things, but at this point, it is just licensing a brand. Like a t-shirt or hat.... that's it. I dont think ford needs the branding of Shelby to make a good car.
It is all what someone is willing to pay.
How the car is kept, maintained, options, color, etc... Even then, these aren't going to be collector cars, so the reality is, it may swing 1K in your favor.... best case scenario... with the right buyer. Not enough for me to purchase a car that...
Well… this post didn’t age well.
Didn’t drive at all yesterday.
Woke up this morning to clean my wheels and wash my car. Dead as a can be. Picked up a new battery, installed, checked for DTC. No engine light or codes.
Does anyone have experience with this kit. Either S550 or S650 experience? Positive or negative. Both short and long term. I have watched a few videos on installs and it shows to work, but no one comes back and talks about the experience 6 months or a year later.
I'm running an E85 tune and...
Can we just have a section on the forum where we all talk like boomers?
NOW THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT... GOOD TO SEE SOMEONE ELSE WHO GETS IT!! 👍
I WAS JUST TELLING THE WIFE (SHE’S A SAINT FOR PUTTING UP WITH ME AND MY CAR PARTS IN THE DINING ROOM!!) THAT THIS PLACE NEEDS A CORNER FOR THE...
I've driven an ecoboost as rentals when I travel. As of late I have probably rented 10 of them in the past 2 years. Carved up some roads, tested the limits. etc... Pheonix, El Paso, Charlotte, Nashville, etc...I'm not saying they are slugs, just stating factual figures that are published from...
I had to look at the graph a couple of times myself to translate what he was writing and what it said. He is basically stating....
0-70 is 6.4 seconds
0-100 is 14.6 seconds
That leaves the difference of 14.6 - 6.4 = 8.2 seconds for 70mph - 100mph.
I have been looking at efficiency over HP lately. Here's a list of areas I have been focusing on in this order. Some don't apply to my build but I listed them anyways. Some of this is extreme if you are using it as a daily. It is more track focused and expensive. I would look at bang for my...
Prorated batteries is common but it depends on the manufacturer and the tier inside their brand. I purchase and sell (~5MM annually) East Penn, Exide, Odyssey, Midwest, and a few others and none of these are prorated in my world. That includes traditional flood, high cycle, mixtech, and AGM...
