Vacuum pump method does not work well due air leakage into the hose at the bleeder fitting. Sealing the bleeder fitting is a pain honestly. Here’s what I do. With a medical syringe with a small hose attached to it, I remove the old fluid. The Ranger master cylinder has a small hole that I...

I just replaced the brake fluid today on my 2019 Ranger Lariat. A few hours and $12 for the DOT4 fluid. Truck a few months short of 3 years old with 35,163 miles. I have a brake fluid tester (OEM Tools) and it showed 0% water and the fluid color looked just slightly amber. Its a closed...

i have similar experiences. I do my own oil changes with a full synthetic oil. I add 6 quarts as not all typically drains out in my experience. Run the engine and check for leaks. Then check oil after cleaning up area etc. at least 15 mins pass. Checking the oil shows almost at hash mark upper...

Made in China I earlier bought the McGard lug nuts and subsequently removed them due to smaller cone seating surface.

Bought these off Amazon. I bought the chrome but they also offer black. Seem good quality and match the OEM for key dimensions...

Just received my most recent UOA from Blackstone Labs. I expected the fuel dilution to be higher as a result of lower temperatures. I'm not pleased with the increased fuel dilution but have decided to monitor the wear metals count going forward. The powertrain warranty is 5 years/60,000 miles...

In the package you received there is a yellow sheet of paper that has the voucher ID

Back in the day in the Artic with radial engines, we would use fuel to dilute the oil to thin it out at the end of the day so the engines had some chance of starting in the morning if external heating not available. Typically radial engines used 50 or 60 weight oil. There was an oil dilution...

John Cadogan on AutoExpert.com explains the issue from an engineering standpoint. My experience mirrors what many owners post. I check my oil regular with the truck is same place in the garage after sitting overnight. During warmer weather, I noted very little change on the dipstick level. My...

Hi Phil I too have multiple sets of SAE and Metric tools in both 6 and 12 point. I even have spline sockets that often will work on SAE and Metric. Seems we needed them on certail aircraft I worked on early in my career. I started out in the aircraft world back in 1966 and we typically used...

This thread is the one i meant to post. I had the McGard black lug nuts installed. After reading this thread, I went out and looked at my wheel and lug nut installation. Didn't like what I was seeing so I removed a few. Pictures in my post. Subsequently, I went back to the OEM lug nuts...

Just came across this thread. I replaced the OEM chrome lug nuts on my 2019 Lariat wheels with black ones purchased from Panda Motoworks last year. McGard Premium lug nuts had the correct thread and cone angle as the OEM. I confirmed before installing them. After reading this thread, I went...

I had the local dealer install the Ford leveling kit about a year ago. I reminded the advisor that the cruise control radar unit and headlights will need to be adjusted per the Ford work instructions. The work order receipt stated installed the leveling kit, wheel alignment and adjusted...

I have a 2019 Lariat and was getting the flashing light response from oncoming drivers. I had the Ford Performance leveling kit installed by the Ford dealer. The work statement from Ford requires headlamp adjustment. The document from the dealer stated this was accomplished. Yesterday, I...

I agree. I love this funnel plus it fits my Mazda. I don’t mind spending money on a product that works so well. I also have a collection of funnels that I used in the past and never found one as good as this funnel for my Ford and Mazda vehicles.

I updated my map version NA119 several days ago on a road trip. Took close to 2 hours before I got the message ok to remove the thumb drive. What actually needs to be done is NOT reflected in the install instructions on the web site. I did wait for 2 Synch restarts per the install instructions...

Thanks. I'm doing that now. Just wish the Customer Support Rep knew that. Save me a bunch of time and frustration
