Looks great, it doesn't get any cleaner than that!

Owner's manual calls for a pan drop w/filter change every 30k. However, changing it early may be a decent idea to help get rid of the break in materials and then follow the owner's manual from there with a good Mercon V fluid. Personally I just do it once a year(about 20k for me) and so far my...

1966 Ford Mustang, 200 cui straight 6 and C4. Still have it too.

Keep us updated, it's always good to see old iron still being run.

My mistake,I didn't realize that some of Justrite's products are made overseas, their factory in Illinois makes the fire cabinets and several types of fuel cans. They had a large area dedicated to making 5 gallon cans that looked similar to the Type II's but apparently they're not all made here.

Justrite safety cans and fire cabinets are most definitely 100% U.S. made right here in central IL. I worked at their factory as a summer job while I was in community college, their based in my hometown.

Before BITOG I used Pennzoil because my dad ran that and QS and both of my grandpa's ran Pennzoil exclusively and it's still what I run today even after experimenting with Amsoil, M1, Castrol, and MC. We've always had good results with Pennzoil and never had any kind of oil related issues so I'm...

It varies depending on how much city driving I do, but lately it's averaged 1qt./3000 miles. I do think the PCV valve needs changed, but that's another project as it's a one piece unit with the driver side valve cover.

It's pretty close in my area between PYB and Castrol but Pennzoil seems to sell a little better. However a lot of the old guys will tell you about how Castrol is a "premium" oil. For diesel's most everyone seems to use Shell Rotella. 1. PYB 2. Castrol GTX 3. Mobil 1 4. Castrol Syntec

Walk23, I'll have to wait and see if there is any improvement as I just pulled these this afternoon. However, the last time they were changed I didn't see any noticeable increase in mpg. Vssjim, I have changed these plugs once already at 107k with the redesigned SP-515s and hi-temp nickel...

Cardenio327 thanks for the quick reply. I didn't know whether this was something to be worried about or not, as I've never had oil on any spark plugs that I pulled out of a modern engine.

These plugs are certainly different than anything else I've used. I think Ford's reasoning was that it would increase combustion efficiency for better fuel economy.

Hi all, I was hoping to get folk's thoughts on whether these plugs look acceptable for 55k of use, and more specifically about what would cause oil to get onto the plug from the #5 cylinder. These plugs came out of a 5.4 3V Ford with 164k miles. Not all of the plugs are pictured, as one had...

Wow, at 163k miles I couldn't be happier with my 04 F-150, although mine has the 5.4 3V. I bought mine in 08 w/77k miles on it so I don't know what was done before that but the brakes that were on it lasted until 160k. The only non-routine maintenance that I've had to do was a parking brake...

Illinois here.

Another nomination for Lawn Boy! I have a 1973 21" LB with the D600 engine and magnesium deck, and just got it going again a couple weeks ago after it sat for 2 years. I put some fresh fuel in it and was astounded when this 40 year old mower started on the first pull. It's mostly going to get...
