Tyler,
I own a 2019 SuperCrew 4x4 XLT and I do not have any issues with fuel in the oil. Just be mindful of the spread of 'issues' on the internet; they trend substantially bigger than they seem because, like you allude to here, issues are what people post about.
As for my positive thoughts of...
I think when I looked at the 2021 Order Guide the STX 'special edition package' was available after you already added the 'STX package.' This $995 option is on top of the cost of the STX. I am just pointing that out for clarification. The write up does not include the dependency and makes it...
Phil,
Battery Management is also used as a battery monitor for 'other' things besides charge/discharge management. If the battery has a sufficient charge the alternator can be managed to lower the charge being produced to save fuel. In addition, the battery state is used to determine if...
Hey fellow Deeetroiter!
I was out playing in the snow last night also. Advanced Trac off and the donuts were just fine.
As a side note, and this probably could use a separate thread. Pulled into an unplowed parking lot with 6" or more snow. Others had already been there and kicked up some...
Ah, gotcha. These things are common in the motorcycle universe. I wonder if one of the cheap kits would work. It's just a 12v light. Anyway, ya'll confirm it is an option and, therefore, not on my truck!
Found this one today. The third brake light flashes 3 times before staying solid? Someone needs to check this because it is difficult to do this alone...
Gorgeous Torino! I had a 1970 GT Convertible that I had no time to finish restoration on so I sold it to keep from feeling guilty every time I looked at it...LOL.... Oh, is there a Ranger in there somewhere too?
The way I always looked at the resale equation is the 'value' of a Lariat vs. an XLT (or even nan XL) will never be as good as the price difference when you buy it, a Lariat will definitely be more appealing and will likely sell quicker than the others.
If it was a dealer installed item they may. A customer added item they will just shy away from as what appears to be happening.
Since the PCV system needs to handle both normally aspirated mode and intake pressurization mode they have gotten substantially more complicated than 'the old...
Wade,
I have been scrounging through the internet looking for "ecoboost fuel in oil" posts and came across this:
https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/trailers-transportation/340718-ecoboost-fuel-oil-issue.html
It is a post from 2015 on F150 'ecoboost' (it does not say which engine...3.5L or...
It is actually worth quite a bit of fuel on the EPA test cycle. It may be a bit annoying but my Fusion does not have it and sitting at traffic lights the little meter on the cluster for average fuel economy can lose a lot with the car idling. With the Ranger it 'freezes' the number at where it...
The dealer can do a powertrain self test which can measure the cylinder imbalance from a performance point of view. If the injectors check out on the injector test, and the plugs are fine, then the test checks compression and combustion stability. If there is that much blowby of unburnt fuel...
No but it make a BIG difference if I have to stop for fuel on Tuesday or.....well, Tuesday. LOL...
No, in reality, it is just a habit left over from driving my old tech cars that actually had something called a gas cap. Right now, out of 4 cars (family needs transportation too) and 2...
