Sounds like your mileage is right about where it should be per the sticker. I assume the reason for you to switch to 87 octane is just to save some money? Just curious why use premium for the first few thousand miles?
I will look for the ready to use. Not sure if I should fill to max fill line or maybe just halfway inbetween the mix and max lines? Honestly I don't think I've ever put coolant in a car before which I guess is a good thing:)
Ahh you at 76 and @DCS at 77 are just a couple of young fellas enjoying life. Here's to hoping both of you have many happy miles, smiles and years ahead piloting your Mustangs:)
Are all you guys running premium (91 or 93) octane in your manual GT's? I have an A10 GT and just did my first fill up last night - went with Shell 93 VPower so we'll see what happens. I'm pretty sure the dealer filled my car up with regular 87 octane but per the car it said my average on the...
Well I think that's still better than my coolant being at the min level since day one. It doesn't appear to have gone any lower so that's good but I'll have to keep an eye on it.
I've had my car for a few weeks now (same color as yours) and my coolant level (when cold) has been at the min level since day 1. I guess as long as it's not below that it's ok but I would think it should at least be in the middle of the min, max lines if not higher? Seems strange as @DCS...
Glad to hear that my battery appears to be in good shape. Do you remember how much per gallon you paid? For some reason the premium gas around me (in Michigan) is normally at least $1.00 more than regular 87. It only used to be around a .20 upcharge for premium around me before COVID,etc.
The 13.5V reading was with the car running. I just checked and the NOCO has moved onto the 2nd red block so as least I know it's working and it must be charging the battery. My fuel light came on and chimed and alerted me when it said I had 50 miles until empty. I'm going to fill it up with...
Yup started at the first right light on mine and I'll keep an eye on it and hopefully it goes up. Do you remember what the voltage was on your battery before you started charging it? Mine was 13.5 but I know it was lower than that a few days ago when I checked it. Knock on wood no issues so far...
Well I just put it on the charger a few minutes ago so we'll see what happens. When I pulled my car in the garage it said my battery was at 13.5V which I think is good? No harm in making sure she's fully charged plus I can make sure the new NOCO I bought is working, lol.
I have let it sit for a couple days without driving it on a few occasions but not bad I guess. Does the NOCO tell you the % charged when you first hook it up? I'll going for a little drive in a bit and I'll check my battery voltage before I put it on the charger.
Thanks for the info. Any issue with leaving the hood open for a couple days if that's how long it takes to charge? I don't recall there being any sort of light that comes on when the hood is up?
I guess I'll have to figure out if the charger is working once it's hooked up Hopefully I don't get...
I just bought the NOCO 5A unit and I plan to try it out this week (hopefully I don't get a dud). Anyway I've never used one of these devices but I remember reading a post possibly by @DCS about how to hook it up without removing the battery cover (I think). Hopefully I can find that post or...
