I just clicked the link and it still shows $44.99 per 5 gallon (one time purchase) or if you do the (auto order and save) it's $42.74 for a 5 gallon pail and I can pick it up at my local Leesburg, Fl TSC store. Not sure if it's a local store only deal or not.

Hope this helps others save some coin: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/traveller-all-fleet-engine-oil-sae-15w-40-5-gal-t8040070-1635837

Well after felling not so "warm and fuzzy" about the NAPA 5W-40's being only "recommended" instead of meeting and/or exceeding Ford's F1 specs and not wanting to even hint at voiding the warranty on this $90K truck(my very first new vehicle), I went to purchase some T6 5W-40 from Rural King...

I apologize for the "all caps" reply.

Since I still have some Delo 5w-40 synthetic that doesn't meet Ford's "F1" spec, I wanted to be sure the Napa 5w-40 HD synthetic did before purchase. Features & Benefits Warranty: Standard : See Manufacturer's Complete Written Policy Download NAPA Heavy Duty 5W40 Full Synthetic Diesel Engine...

Definitely want to stick with an approved oil, as I document what oil and filter were used at what OCI mileage, especially on this 6.7 PSD if any warranty issue arises. A couple years ago I went to just about every Advanced Auto Parts within a 25 mile radius of me and purchased all of their Delo...

I see this oil is produced/manufactured by Valvoline and is usually on sale at my local NAPA for $21.99 gal. I have a 2025 F350 with 6.7, so I need a Ford "F1" approved oil. I usually do 4-5K oil changes (I also have a 425K daily driver 2000 F250 4x4 7.3 PSD w/ 6spd that I also use this OCI)...

No sir! Shimming the injectors only involves removing the solenoids, not the entire injector, to gain access to the armature plate to both measure clearances and to modify the armature spacer plate for improved oil draining. Decent video showing basically the same procedure as the instructions...

If there is confirmed stiction issues, it may be time to shim the injectors. Yes, it's a thing...I did it on my 2000 F250 about 12 years ago when I had 250K on my 7.3's stock injectors. Really helped with start-up, running and slightly with fuel economy. I purchased a kit off of Ebay from USA...

FWIW, I have 415K+ on my 2000 F250 7.3 6spd 4x4 and I change it's oil at around 3.5-4K miles(yeah lots of oil and filters over it's lifetime)-just think about how much fuel has been through the original fuel pump at 14 mpg average :oops:. It still runs great, starts immediately, fairly...

I use a cheap AEM wideband to tune my Holley 770 and 870 on my '79 Ranchero, it has been VERY reliable, have had it 7 years with no issues. It has helped me achieve extra power and MPG out of my 472 BBF/C6 combo, with no OD, I got 15.2 mpg(doing 70-75mph) on a long interstate trip from central...

Nascar is looking more and more like the IROC series and we all know how successful that series was, even with the best drivers from around the world competing against each other. IMO, bring the cars back to resemble the mid to late 70's, even the early 80's look. No more crazy spoilers and...

Go to your local Lowes and pick up some L.C. Wax spray, it is made for lubricating aluminum products.

The reason I mentioned the XRF's is that I have used Spicer(non-greasable like stock bj's) and Moog's(greasable), but surprisingly they both needed replaced after just 20-25K miles, the XRF ball joints have been installed for over 75K miles and still no issues(truck has 318K). The XRF's are very...
