Ford parts reviews

I've used LiquiMoly on euro Diesels before and used 15w-40 oil on my 6.0 Powerstroke this past oil change but really want to get some feedback before I change my oil again.

I swapped all this, gas pedal, coil packs and checked all plugs, throttle body with TPS and IAC all as one unit, fuel pump, filter is already new. I did one thing at a time then test drove it, nothing made a difference in the issue. So I thought let me go back to the 2008 MAF, (had the 2006 MAF in it), I'll clean the 2008 MAF real good, and run with the Cone style K&N filter off. It took a few miles but it was a near instant fix, it ran perfect. I stopped and put the K&N Cone style air filter back on and drove 3 more miles, and it started to act up again and stalled on a slow turn. So I put the OE Air Filter box and tube etc.. back on, and WALLA!! It runs perfect. It was totally an Air Delivery issue!

My cats got stolen so I replaced them myself and had to custom weld the exhaust.

when doing research I noticed the lb/hr rates for injectors vary somewhat widely across the whale model years. Bought OEM injectors and behavior went away. the injectors that came out were the wrong lb/hr (you can differentiate by colored tabs on injectors there are several forum posts on injector identification). ECM could adjust but it didn't like it. Would intermittently but not consistently throw bank 1 and 2 lean codes.

Bosch wipers hand down. I even use them on my F-150. I'd rather pay more knowing what I'm going to get.

I have Blizzaks ws80s on my Focus ST, and hakkas on my wife's Edge. When the Blizzaks are done, Hakkas are going on.

My previous car was a Legacy wagon on studless Hakkas . Driving in crappy Alberta winters was a complete non-event.

I use a Group 27 battery in my Mustang and have found Bosch to work very well for me.

Newer ford alternators essentially “talk” to the pcm. Cheap aftermarket alternators do not do well on these cars. Replace the alternator with a better quality alternator

on the Ford 4.6 around 175k you need to do an engine out service to fix timing chains because a nimrod at Ford put them against the damn fire wall.

I know someone who had a blow out running his RE-71R's in the winter, apparently
