  1. Dreaded Water in the Spark Plug Wells, Advice Sought

    I assume you're changing all plugs? You can do just the rusty ones abd the boots. From what I saw on mine, water did not go high enough to damage the COP. So we replaced the water damaged boot. I bought the cover myself for $176 and am going to install it myself and try to waterproof the spark...
  2. Heat Not Working in Automatic

    Yea mine does that too. I don't like the automatic vent settings for heat or cool. Would like both to do dash vent and feet vent. But heat does windshield and cool does directly into my eyes!
  3. Ford Protect vs.....

    Anyone have input on the Carmax warranty? I bought mine through them and added in a warranty from them.
  4. Stage 1 Finished

    Looks good, How do you like the Bilsteins? Thinking about getting those myself. Any mods you needed to do to make the tires fit? Whats the offset on those wheels?
  5. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    So I'm interested in getting this. I was under my truck and saw how stupid hard it is to get to the current dip stick. Does anyone know if this will cause an issue at the dealership if I want to have them do a fluid change in the future? I assume warranty is not voided by this, but I just...
  6. Remote Transmission Dip Stick Aftermarket Support?

    How well does the dipstick on this seal up? Is it just an O ring holding it in or does it screw in?
  7. The Dreaded Water in Spark Plugs (TSB 21-2147)

    Pretty much my experience too today. Had to pay like $200 to replace rusty plug and coil boot. No engine cover provided under TSB or warranty. I'll need to buy that on my own. Yea I'm a little pissed at how this truck was made and how they won't fix this after. Pretty much have a truck I...
  8. Genuine Ford Parts, Accessories & Ford Performance

    Hi Benny, I need to get the engine cover to cover my rusty spark plugs. Can you help me out? Additionally I need a part (coolant tank reservoir for battery) for my mom's Ford Fusion Hybrid. Any discounts available for smaller parts like that?
  9. Nearly flawless Ranger

    Have you checked plug number 1? I've heard conflicting reports if the cover actually solves the issue. I'm thinking about pushing the dealer to give me one under the TSB but I want to see if people with the cover have had this issue.
  10. Nearly flawless Ranger

    I thought my truck was flawless until I checked in the #1 spark plug well....
  11. The Dreaded Water in Spark Plugs (TSB 21-2147)

    If only the dealer techs knew what you knew.
  12. The Dreaded Water in Spark Plugs (TSB 21-2147)

    Was it penetrating fluid? Not sure how brake fluid would help. In any case, I need to try to remove the rust flakes in there before changing it. Maybe a magent or blow them out, but if some rust flakes get into the cylinder that shouldnt be too bad, right?
  13. The Dreaded Water in Spark Plugs (TSB 21-2147)

    Thanks! No CEL yet but again, might show up when it rains. That plug looks so bad I'm really concerned it may break if I ever try to replace the plug myself...was thinking about doing that at 50K miles....
  14. The Dreaded Water in Spark Plugs (TSB 21-2147)

    Welp, decided to check my spark plugs with a rain storm coming next week. First plug was screwed. Boot was HARD to get off. Mine looks pretty bad. So far I don’t think I have drivability issues but we'll see with the rain coming...Sometimes I do notice some jerkyness while driving. My truck...
  15. Hum/droning noise at 70+ mph

    I think I may know what sound you are talking about. I bought my ranger used and do notice it while cruising at certain speeds or when throttle is at certain positions. I just thought it was this TSB...so far I'm not really concerned about it. I just think it's a weird quirk of the truck...
  16. Brake Pads

    Are y'all running ceramic pads, semi metallic? I assume cutting rotors with pad installs?
  17. I have joined the 100k miles club

    What engine cover did you buy if not OEM?
  18. Odd ignition chime tone

    I don't think it's battery related. I had the same thing after I got a new battery. I think it has to do with the UI software booting up. Or possibly if the door is open it won't make the sounds through the speakers like normal.
  19. Blackstone UOA results on factory 9-10k mile OCI

    Got my oil analysis back. Only minor concern for me was fuel and the oil viscosity. No idea what oil was in it as I bought it used and this is what came out.
  20. 98k and cracked gasket, told I need new engine

    Could your issue be related to this? Where there is a small slit milled in between cylinder walls and it makes a weak spot? I thought Ford revised the block after 2019.
