  1. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    Do you think the oil evaporates off of the engines internals after two weeks? Or during an oil change? What do you think you're accomplishing by putting oil where there is already oil?
  2. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    Also, have you ever watched those engine tear down videos where the engine is broken, they've been sitting in a junkyard for a year or two...when they take the engines apart the bearings all still have oil on them...
  3. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    The oil pressure sensor is right after the oil pump. If you have a garden hose, you have pressure right after the faucet but that doesn't mean you have water coming out of the hose. Oil pressure is driven by RPM. 5,000rpm is higher than idle. Starter turns the engine at what 200rpm...
  4. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    Except that you don't know that it actually does push oil through the engine. You hear someone say 'oh I do this flood mode thing to get oil going before I start it...', but is it even true? You said 'it says', but you still haven't said what it is/was. Owners manual? Ford service...
  5. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    Where does "it" say this, anyway?
  6. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    If it got to the top of the engine, they wouldn't say to use another method pop a valve cover off and try
  7. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    He just a said it doesn't spin fast enough to get the oil through the engine. Do whatever you want - it's your engine
  8. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    It's the same oil pump design. go to 12:30 of this video
  9. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    So you're ignoring what ford tech instructs you to do? Why? Sounds like you're the one disregarding information. it's not a small block ford with the old, different style oil pump.
  10. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    It's in some years manuals, and it's flor clearing a flooded engine, not building oil pressure We had this discussion either here or on 6G and there's some goober that does it when he hasn't driven the car for a few days...
  11. What fuel treatment additive should I use for winter storage?

    E10 is weird I can leave it in my riding mower all winter and after a couple cranks and a puff of smoke it starts just fine I've left it in my push mower for two years and it's fine my snowblower, though, if I don't drain it, it turns into goo in the bottom of the carb in just a few months...
  12. NHTSA Document - Explains the FORD/Whipple calibration hold.

    That information came out before Would be nice for a simple explaination of a real world example of what it was actually doing wrong
  13. Startup after sitting LONG / Oil pressure

    You cannot build pressure by turning the engine over with the starter on a modular engine. It's a Gerotor oil pump. Doesn't turn fast enough, ford even says this in the engine docs. It's not like the old style engines and oil pumps. You can pre-lube it with a pump
  14. 2026 Ford Performance Whipple availability???

    Might not be for a couple months
  15. To Supercharge or not to Supercharge...is that even a question?

    They don't make any low end power and the gearing of the manual is too long. Sure, all you have to do is downshift but the Whipple changes the powerband way more. A10 with the centri is fine. You'll still be a lot lower in rpm with every shift in the manual.
  16. To Supercharge or not to Supercharge...is that even a question?

    Neither of them make boost at low throttle inputs I personally wouldn't want a centri with a manual, but you should try to drive both setups before you buy.
  17. Leftover 2024 GT Premium good deal?

    I would want 15k off MSRP at the very least
  18. I don't have a laptop.

    $80 T460 or Dell something or another on eBay
  19. *Update* Dark Horse with Steeda X pipe with TotalFlow mini race Resonators and Corsa axle-back

    3" is a waste IMO if you're going to just put a 2.5" on the end of it, but again there's only one way to see the actual numbers. and guys are making big power through the factory 2.5" mufflers Getting rid of that 2-1/4" section has to be a good size gain but again... Where are the Engine...
