    Ford 1.5L (4 cyl) Ecoboost, replace head gasket?

    My mom has one with the 1.6 and 6 speed in an Escape. I wonder / worry if the engine's going to pop or the transmisison is going to fail first.

    Ford 1.5L (4 cyl) Ecoboost, replace head gasket?

    I thought the cylinders moved around too much because it's an open deck causing the gasket to fail prematurely?

    That tri-fuel generator looks pretty good.

    Two Stroke Oil Question

    If you were in the US , I'd say Supertech TCW-3 is an option . There's also a name brand one (I think Pennzoil?) for nearly the same price.

    Slight rust on camshafts

    I've had the heads off the original engine from my Grand Marquis in my shed in super humid central NY for 3 years and there's no pitting on the cams.

    Does Size Matter? Engine Displacement….How Low Can They Go?

    Sooo ... stock for stock, our 2019 Sentra with a NA 1.8L and CVT was quicker than my 4.6L v8 Grand Marquis 0-60. Now that I've swapped out the rear axle in the Marquis, I think it can finally do 0-60 in under 13 seconds and beats the Sentra.

    Ford police vehicles

    Does LAPD still have a parking lot of unused crown victorias? They will probably be running crown victorias after the last civilian ones have been destroyed by Garett Mitchell🙄 One of our local towns has a few patrol vehicles dedicated to a unit that's some sort of volunteer police. I don't...

    1995 Ford Ranger Worn syncros

    What about my external slave ZF-5 🤣. Which apparently doesn't exist. All that's available are ones without bleeders. Just have to press the clutch 5000000 times?

    What do you folks use for rear brake calipers?

    Thankfully nothing of mine has retracting calipers or threaded pistons. So I just use a c clamp.

    They have internal slave cylinders - is it even possible to bleed without pulling the transmission?

    1973 New Yorker is rear-ended by Kia Forte

    Apparently it was staged. The Kia hit a chevy truck head on that was turning infront of it. The people with the newyorker just baacked up to it.

    1973 New Yorker is rear-ended by Kia Forte

    I think the big mopars back then were Unibody. Chrysler was an early adopter to unibody.

    New Rider - Thoughts

    Zero turns are nice but if you have any wet spots in your yard they like to get stuck. I had to keep the old rider around for springtime mowing.

    Two-piece rear main seals

    I'm just happy to get the top half in without tearing or ripping it. My jeep 4.0 had the winged seal on it so I didn't have an option to offset.

    1973 New Yorker is rear-ended by Kia Forte

    The Kia absorbed all the energy for that driver. Hopefully the full accident. Otherwise, the driver of the Chrysler is going to be feeling it in the morning.

    How to identify a Continental brand serpentine belt?

    It's not actually Rockauto warehousing and shipping the product. They just dropship from 3rd party warehouses with published inventory. I buy a lot of stuff from Rockauto and have relatively good luck. However, if I see it's coming from United Auto in Lakeland NY, I can guarantee I will not...
