    Ethanol/Exhaust Question

    Will ethanol typically fill up a catch can quicker? I almost overfilled mine after having been used to running regular 93. The contents of the catch can was a lot more viscous, almost like there was water in it. For the first 10,000 miles it was more like a thick chocolate milk. Could very well...

    Ethanol/Exhaust Question

    I just mean that it’s generally louder, tends to pop and crackle more. “Low speed operation at partial throttle” is pretty dead on. It’s super loud primarily after switching, then seems to settle down. Wondering if maybe the ECU is adjusting. Or maybe I’m making shit up. No difference in regular...

    Ethanol/Exhaust Question

    I am running ZFG 93, noticing a huge difference in exhaust burble behavior with E30 in the tank. Not overly concerned about it, just wondering why the E30 makes so much more noise at parking lot speeds. A full tank of 93 (E10) hardly burbles at all. Bonus question: any technical reason to avoid...

    Help with potential exhaust issue.

    I don’t know about the fiberglass, but my thermals had metal on metal scraping noise intermittently too. It was the muffler hanger and the “hook” on the muffler scraping together. I moved the mufflers forward so that the bend in the hook was further away from the hanger hole.

    2023 ST climate control display

    That sucks. Each generation seems to pinch more pennies.

    Harsh Shift Into Drive

    Normal. I started letting mine come up to temp before shifting out of park and it shifts smoothly. These transmissions are quirky

    2023 ST climate control display

    I think they deleted this in 2021 in favor of just moving it to the corners of the display. Not sure about the red LED. You mean the ones on the physical buttons? My 22 has those

    Didn't know about the reverse mirror capability. Sounds pretty cool, gonna try it on mine later.

    FS [SOLD] Steeda Springs - $280 | Free Shipping to U.S.

    Bought these on the forum and never put them on. Like the previous owner, decided to go with H&R's. $280 with free shipping, will ship to anyone in U.S. The previous owner sent these in an H&R box, and I will be sending in the same box. Verified these are the correct springs with Steeda support...

    After Recal of Rear Axel

    A few of us have gotten rear controls from Tascaparts.com. https://www.tascaparts.com/oem-parts/ford-control-lb5z19980h?c=bD0xJm49U2VhcmNoIFJlc3VsdHM= I wouldn't worry much about the rear axle bolt unless you're going to add a lot of power to the engine. In that case, a brace isn't a bad idea...

    New Pirelli tire

    Looking forward to hearing about these. Hoping for decent winter performance with a W speed rating :)(y)

    Hard launch transmission disengages

    Same. Do you have any rough shifts in normal mode? Normally the trans shifts from 3-5, but if you get the throttle just right you can get a 3-4. Buttery smooth in normal mode.

    What did everyone buy this week?

    Hard launch transmission disengages

    No idea, just didn’t want to throw him under the bus unnecessarily by not being clear. His exact words: “It’s not making the 1-2 shift at all. It looks like a transmission issue. Please check the fluid level in the trans.” Didn’t follow up after checking trans fluid. Kinda doubt the dealer...

    Hard launch transmission disengages

    Just to clarify - he didn't see the failure in logs I sent from another occurrence that did not involve the wrench. I haven't sent him logs that capture the DTC -- that won't show up until you repeat the failure several times.
