    Certified labs grease, primrose, chassis greases?

    I’m not sure what that response is for in terms of a sales rep. I think the company has been around for years. Like I said they’re just going to all the local truck owners and knocking on doors. So I’d like information in case they knock on mine. The water part I’m aware, I’ve never let that...

    Certified labs grease, primrose, chassis greases?

    This company has been hitting all the local trucking companies around me. Switching their grease over and trying to switch over oils. Besides their website I can find very limited information on it. I’m currently using Phillips 66 multiplex 600 for a full chassis grease and their claim to fame...

    Blackstone turnaround?

    4.5 weeks. Just got one today I sent around thanksgiving. Unacceptable in my opinion.

    2016 ford flex water pump and timing replacement

    I think the difference is in body design. Some have more room then others to do the job

    2016 ford flex water pump and timing replacement

    I’ve had ford techs chime in on both of my post. Waldo isn’t the only person who may know. And I scrolled that forum recently. There isn’t much action over there. I don’t think I’ve seen anyone so upset that I won’t join the 100th forum I’ve come along, I didn’t say I wouldn’t but I happen to...

    2016 ford flex water pump and timing replacement

    I’m ok with a melling chain since that’s who make oem chains. The rest I’m pretty sure I can get locally at Ford. I think I read the phaser bolts and crank bolts are torque to yield correct? So they need to be replaced regardless once removed. Unless your that guy that can yield them again 😂

    2016 ford flex water pump and timing replacement

    My only concern is that I get the right coolant out and back in. I understand there is a change over for coolant from green to maybe orange? And they don’t mix. I guess I won’t know til I drain it. Would you drain it, fill with straight distilled water, flush and fill again. Then final with...

    2016 ford flex water pump and timing replacement

    I am going to do an UOA next change which should be coming soon since the wife’s driving the wheels off it. But I agree what will tell a lot. The weep hole I understand you can’t really see. I’m not 100% certain if it’s location but I understand it to be hidden behind the alternator or ac...

    2016 ford flex water pump and timing replacement

    I just bought this 2016 flex 3.5NA car for my wife. It just rolled 100k and I wanted to stay on the PM side of things. I know the water pump and timing chains are issues with these engines. I was contemplating doing it myself. I am mechanically inclined and feel confident doing the job. I’m...

    Got to use woolwax - first impressions......

    I agree Krown goes on like a thin oil. I know all the vehicles I have used it on are rust free in all places. My 2010 ram has been done since .2013 and it is black underneath from the Krown collecting dust but if I wipe it off it’s super clean. I’ve heard of some doing a wash underneath to start...
