I used a new heater core from an Econoline van, put hoses on it, connected it to an above ground pool pump, draped the core over my generator muffler that heated my hot tub at a festival in winter.
I used the Ford coolant and haven't had a problem for the 2k miles I've done with it.
Always read your manual/mfr suggestions for battery charging and longevity.
For Li-ion you generally should charge no more than 80% (some mfg hide 10% via software like Ford, so you charge to 90%). Also, limit fee cycling these types too, regularly you should DC to about 50% max. Occasionally deep cycling and full charging is fine. Should limit DCFC also.
Had to replace the plugs and ignition coils last summer and that fixed it.
Had to replace the intake manifold, other than that top drawer.
2005 CVPI...180,000 mi....spark plug blown out of head. The Crown Vic was purchased at auction for $4200 a bunch of years ago with 100,000 miles and was very good to us until about a week ago...original engine, suspension parts, transmission and very few repairs.
If it is a rebuilt/reman you violated the cardinal rule...."never ever buy a Reman Ford compressor".
2004 Ford Mustang; passenger side exhaust manifold
My neighbor had a Ford mustang and he had to jump start it about once a week. I checked the alternator and it had power when the car was off. Bad diode.
LHM Ford pulled this on me recently too. Had a bunch of 80k mile maintenance done that I didn’t want to do myself, and the guy called me up telling me our cabin air filter was filthy and really needed replacing.
