I went in another direction and picked up NGK 95605 LTR7BHX Ruthenium HX Plug , which should be one step colder Ruthenium style NGK's.
I"ll let you guys know how it goes when I get them installed.
The SPD Videos are really awfully recorded. IMHO, Speedbuilt hit the mark, making a custom pipe seeing how its essentially a straight shot might be the best solution.
So i've started down the path of modifying the Ranger and one of the biggest things i'm actually struggling with is finding a solid Turboback setup.
Downpipes appear like SPD or AFE twisted series, but most of the "Catbacks" seem to bolt up to the midpipe section. Of the exhausts I can find...
Interesting guys, I appreciate the feedback, I realized I don't notice this much as I often remote start my truck and give it a few minutes to warm up and that quickly I think the issue isn't as prominent, vs just hoping in and having it happen.
Hey Guys, 19, Lariat, with about 15k miles.
I've started to notice, that when the truck has been cold\off for sometime and I reverse out of my garage\driveway I pull onto the street (in R) and shift in to drive, from a complete stop, the vehicle really "bucks\bangs" into gear, and the entire...
I have the same kit. Does anyone have issues with it popping off every so often? Mine doesn't want to stay attached at the body side. My install looks like every other one on this thread. ?
Sure i'm game.
1. 50 - Number of miles since last dumped the catch can (Have dumped 2 times total, each time it was very very little fluid)
2. Unknown, Not much. - ml / ounces of fluid collected
3. 5w30 M1 EP - Type and grade of oil I'm using
4. 93 Octane - Octane and type of fuel I'm running...
A lower NOACK is definitely appealing to me, I don't see EP in that list, and with a GDI engine the lower the NOACK the better.
I think my problem with AP vs EP is the cost. I can get the EP at my local Wally world for like 25 on sale, plus filter. AP is like double that cost, I guess...
My previous vehicle before my ranger was 14 Focus ST, with the 2.0 Ecoboost. I ran M1 5w30 EP since new at 14 miles, until I sold it at 109k miles.
The underside of the valve cover and the top of the valve train was spotless, no oil leaks, no issue, no burning of anything. Also ran a...
I don't mean to be that guy , but you bought a four cylinder turbo charged vehicle, and then you are upset because it sounds like a 4 cylinder turbo charged vehicle.
Outside of Boxer Subaru Unequal length exhaust systems I dont think your gonna get that v8 *like* sound from any 4cyl with a...
Information to be subjectively reviewed.
19 - Ranger Lariat, 29xx miles as of today. Installed JLT Catch can at 1,000 miles. Time with Catch-can 1,900 miles.
I installed mine and haven't really looked at it but once, and it was bone dry, smelled like PCV fumes, but nothing significant...
As someone who has run in many motors, transmissions and rear ends in multiple applications , whenever you have two new metal surfaces making contact you will have initial wearin and metal dispersal into the fluid and onto the magnet.
I always feel changing these fluids, and clearing those...
Bumping this. I am looking to do the same.
Does anyone have the fluid requirements ? IE , not capacities but fluid specifications.
Gl4, gl5, 75w90, etc?
Much appreciated.
Inb4 read the owners manual.
