I am loving the m1 0w40 euro in my 4.0 mustang. That walmart 5qt for $11.99 was a great moment. The car begs for throttle so smoothly.
Your 4.0 is a different gen and issues but it may be the best oil for any application.
Seemed to clear up the whisps of smoke i figured was valve cover leak...
I bought my mustang like that. Uninstall the seats, rip all of the carpet out. May have to pull up the center console and deal with rusty seat bolts. Threw it all away. Aftermarket bucket seats and brackets for about $400.
My 07 had leaf clogged drains in the bottoms of the doors, engine bay...
Maxlife atf was the best when it was $17.99 gallon and full synthetic was an upgrade.
The main Point is the maxlife technology which nowadays depends on if you are over 150k miles and how many extreme conditions you expect.
I'll deal with the friendly folks at the ups store all day for amazon returns, the local walmart customer service center is like an alien planet warzone
I drained a GM 6T70 a few months ago and filled with redline d6.
I later siphoned out a quart and a half to add royal purple max atf and lubeguard red.
This leaves me with under 4qt of previous fluid that was dark but smelled fine.
I recently got a cheap case of lucas low viscosity atf...
Marination does something, i have heard of it as a type of slow cooking. Alcohol and acids are standard, but i had a great pot roast done in coca cola.
I vote for Lucas transmission fix. It is very thick at any temp which concerns me about what it will do in extreme cold. Some swear by it. I used it once and that trans died a few years later.
Bar's leaks transmission fix is one I haven't used yet, because I have no leaks.
Slick 50 recharged...
I live in the tropics and drive coupes.
Last 20s I bought were Hankook Ventus, cheapest set of 4 I've bought since I had 14s on the 88.
Installer said they are suv tires, I said better for potholes. Counter girl said we needed to talk in the back by the oil recycling.
I am using the tp-link taso kasa that will record to sd card. It is cheap and will keep about 2 days of recording with the 24/7 function. I am not entirely happy with the flexibility or software for it, so watching this thread.
