    5w20 fully syn mobil 1. Oil Question

    On my '04 5.4 2v 4x4 changed the plugs at 100k and belt, 2 coils just went at around 180,000. Alternator and wiper motor changed early on. Blinker relay and twice on the heater motor resistors. Front and rear blend door motors. Brakes and tires. Oil and filter every 3k. And other required...

    End My Oil Crisis

    Well the ones I use must be some kind of black magic. All my Fords use only OEM parts (the old ones getting harder to find OEM) and filters. Changed the oil & filter every 3K with the proper grade oil for the engine with either Motorcraft Semi or Castrol dino. It came from the factory with...

    Power foaming a 3.5 ecoboost

    According to your profile you only have a 2000 Expy. Let those of us that own, drive and service the 3.5 Eccos comment. I find the comment on turbo and cat issues for cleaning entertaining to say the least.

    Multiple misfire after fill up - coincidence?

    Here's a dealer horror story I'll throw in. A friend of mine took his '12 Expy to the dealer because it would not crank over. The dealer told him engine was seized and quoted to replace it. He had it towed to an independent shop who found bad wiring harness behind the engine.....

    Power foaming a 3.5 ecoboost

    A couple of things...1: Sea Foam brand made for DI engines works just follow the directions and have a helper. 2: There is a dip stick on the tranny fill port to check the oil level. There is also a kit to convert it over to a firewall mounted traditional dip stick tube.

    It is either part of the '18 platform or my '16 is too low of a tier at XLT. I wish I had Boost and some of the others...

    30K mile preventative maintenance

    Buy the dipstick tube that mounts on the firewall from Summit Racing, also change the pan to cast aluminum with a drain plug. There can't get any easier than that.

    JLT Oil Seperator

    As I wrote my response I figured someone would bring this up. LOL. I guess next we can discuss fuel cooling ice systems get get every last bit of power gain...like we do on dragsters.

    JLT Oil Seperator

    Water vapor does nothing for performance, again you only want clean air and fuel in the engine to burn. Now that warmer weather is coming, my JLT will start producing straight oil again. Ever notice how oil fill caps get white gunk on the inside during the winter and not in the warmer months?

    JLT Oil Seperator

    Another way to look at it is the engine will be more efficient with a can. It will be ingesting clean air and fuel only. No un burnt by products from the crankcase which does nothing for performance.
