    Best ZDDP additive?

    I used to get the stp additive in the black gear oil bottle, saw someone say it has redic zinc content. Use sparingly. Was very common in discount closeout stores a few years back, seemed like they'd never run out, but haven't seen it in a while

    Recommendations for an oil with excellent “clean up” properties?

    I had done a few flushes with gumout multi tune up and added a bottle of lubeguard trans flush at idle before every oil change. Even poured atf and diesel in there. Was running supertech hm fs because cheap and changing oil every 1k from clogged filters. Pitch black and the car ran better after...

    Uv dye for specific applications

    Thanks for all of the replies. I went with acdelco for dexcool, as it was the only coolant specific dye i found. It says it is dye and water on the package, so hopefully safe in non-dex. This is all preparing for a flush soon anyways. I did try searching out the leak before the dye, and did...

    Cheapest full synthetic for a Gen 3 5.0 Mustang

    If it has been running blend since 2015 the syn may get very dirty very quickly. May do a few short changes to get the gunk out.

    Uv dye for specific applications

    I am looking for uv dye to add to my g05 coolant to find a small leak. I see there is gm for dexcool and then for coolant or oil. Then I see there is supercool multi use uv dye, but the reviews and comments caution against using it in coolant. Ideally I would like to buy one bottle and be...

    No I am not willing to buy them back due to them being cursed.

    Can car parts be cursed?

    I saw an ad looking for mustang wheels and gave him my old set taking up space. I had taken them off when I got a nail puncture. Got it repaired but liked the spares I put on more. This happened about 2 months after I had a new set of tires on. Notice the same guy now has an ad up trying to...

    Penzoil 173 for motorcraft 820 applications

    Yes i agree. There is quite a bit of disagreement on switching the 820 with a 500, coming down to concerns about the different bypass psi with different documents from ford showing quite a few specs. Penzoil calling for the same part for both applications is a notable revelation in the debate...

    Are all valve stem caps the same? Where do you buy yours?

    I used to use the red yellow and green pressure indicator caps and they saved me from running on a flat tire a few times. I had one fail running tires at 45psi and switched to aluminum. Plastic with brass insert is preferable if worried about corrosion but i have had no problems

    So we're all buying Toyotas now 🤔

    You should really lower it. I say keep it OEM with some ebay coilovers

    Giant rims and maintenance considerations

    I do have the gt500 strut bar and boss 302 rear sway off ebay. Driven it every day multiple years now with about $3k in the whole thing. Could have been worse I almost got a Pontiac Sunfire. Also i have a cold air intake, ecu tuner, ultraflo muffler and high voltage coil pack. I'd probably...

    Giant rims and maintenance considerations

    It did not do well against the Tesla suv. Did absolutely gap an s95 mustang and mini cooper out there though. Even the 300hp v8 s197 of that era isn't a fast car these days. They still look awesome, are tough and now cheap

    Penzoil 173 for motorcraft 820 applications

    Yeah that seems to be the consensus, but penzoil themselves is telling me to use the 500 part on the 820 application. See interchange chart here: https://www.oilfilter-crossreference.com/convert/PENNZOIL/PZ-173

    Penzoil 173 for motorcraft 820 applications

    The penzoil website lists it as the fit for my 4.0 ford, but it is listed as compatible with s500 but not the 820 specced. The housing is the size of s500. There is disagreement on forums that these 2 filters are interchangable. Should i trust penzoil on the matter or trash them?

    Giant rims and maintenance considerations

    Ofc its lowered about 1.5" now with the coilovers and looks a lot meaner. Yes, Sequoiasoon, it is really convenient to be able to get under the car with no jack. Suspension, diff, oil, atf chages a breeze. Im prepping the wheels for paint now. Going with a red primer and pontiac blue sparkle...

    Giant rims and maintenance considerations

    https://www.transmissiondigest.com/transmissions-oversized-tires/ Nice article on transmission digest, but it says to swap to higher gears. Sounds like it will restore the original acceleration, but work things even harder for worse reliability. As for the heat in the trans and bands and...
