  1. Battery Saver Mode while on Trickle Charger

    It's normal. The system works two ways: - Battery depletion. At a given State of Charge (SoC), the car will begin shedding load and go to sleep, to protect the battery. The objective is to have at least enough power to start the car - Time. Even if the battery is at an optimum SoC, the car...
  2. How Much HP Can a BAP Support

    I feel there is a direct relationship between combustion gas temperature and coolant/oil temps, but the amount of heat transferred from gas to coolant/oil is not much. The spent fuel charge is a gas. Gases, being less dense than liquids, are not capable of transferring as much heat (energy) as...
  3. Raising ride height on Dark Horse to avoid scraping?

    One item to consider is changing your tire size. https://tiresize.com/comparison/ Moving to a 285/35/19 square setup will do a few things for you: - Increase the overall height of the car - Allow you to rotate tires - Preserve the stock rims - Give you greater options for any brand or type...
  4. Tire Leakage

    Yes, how many tires are losing pressure? Northern CA. I checked Madera's weather. The daily highs have seen a drop of 30 F in the last two weeks. If all four tires are down, I suspect it's the drop in temperature. Thirty degrees is a pretty good swing.
  5. Dark Horse break in period?

  6. Does Ford sell Oil filters????

    For general parts, I'm only aware of the manual methods to spend points: - Visit the dealer, receive from stock or place an order - Call a dealer and place an order for pickup or delivery FordPass, the app or the business model, isn't setup to access to millions of parts on-line. Or handle...
  7. Stupid question about funnels to use for fueling?

    In your trunk, check the highlighted area for a white funnel. Some parts stores will also sell similar funnels, often yellow in appearance.
  8. Thoughts on Warm up Times?

    I store my vehicle in the Winter. From Spring to Fall, After startup, I wait for the fast idle sequence to end. About 30 seconds. I don't feel there's a benefit to waiting longer. After that, I drive the car "normally". No hard pulls. No high RPMs. "High" defined by something greater than...
  9. Brake Fluid Warning/BCM recall. I need guidance.

    - The mustang6g site could offer still more asisstance - The information the body shop gave you was incorrect - The initial feedback from the dealer is correct - Get all recalls cleared before proceeding with diagnostics and repairs - If there is any outstanding maintenance to be done...

  11. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    It's a topic of debate, similar to octane, oil brands and what the Coyote tick is. The procedure is for starting a car if the engine has been flooded with fuel. It spins the engine, the injectors staying off. Oil pressure can build as a result. I store my vehicle and do not pre-oil it when...
  12. Clutch Hydraulic Line Peak Torque Limiter

    My bad. In removing the spring, I thought it took you towards the direction you were hoping for, but didn't get you all the way there.
  13. Clutch Hydraulic Line Peak Torque Limiter

    I can't speak to the innards of the valve. But a hollow joint could limit fluid flow. The smaller or larger the orifice, the lesser or greater amount of fluid volume passing at a timed interval. You've removed the spring and gotten close to the feel you're looking for. IDK if any of the...
  14. Mustang owner's color preferences

    I keep some simple statistics as part of an Mach 1 registry. While mild-to-wild colors were available from 21-23, the following are the combined percentages of black, grey and silver cars: 2021: 71 of 100%. Five other colors covered the remaining 29%. 2022: 52%. Six other colors were 48% of the...
  15. To Supercharge or not to Supercharge...is that even a question?

    Given the situation you described, boosting your current ride doesn't seem worthwhile. Considering the mechanical aspects, you will probably need to make some adjustments to suspension and tires, to work with the additional power and use it effectively. You're flipping cars every year. Either...
  16. Oh Oh Oh O’Reilly’s has Techron BOGO

    Older cars with carbureted systems, Techron can work quite well. At idle, we used to pour one bottle down the intake, the engine just about to stall. The bottle empty, we'd turn the engine off and let it sit for an hour, the idea being the concentration would help clean up the intake system...
  17. Carpe Diem!

    I can think of a few factors as to how the RTR is being valued: - The RTR trades infrequently. The market or guides might not know how to price the vehicle - The spec and performance of an RTR model and how it compares to the GT and DH - A now two-year old car and what's probably the greatest...
  18. Center Console Cubby Light Does Not Turn Off ?

    I found threads as far back as eight years discussing this topic. Feedback was anywhere from 5-30 minutes. Some posted schematics, highlighting how many of the interior lights remain on (like the trunk) for some time, even with the car locked. These circuits are timed to shutoff. I could not...
  19. Worth Upgrading from 19s to 20s? Ride Comfort Feedback Wanted

    I'm attaching some reference links. These are not DH-specific, but will have feedback from others...
  20. Keeping instrument cluster cool

    I've thought of two ideas. 1. Ceramic tint across the windshield. In the US, tint across the windshield is often illegal. But it can be purchased in shades that are 70 and 80%. It'll help keep the area cooler than it normally would be. Consider tint in the other windows as well. 2. When...
