Sorry for the sophomoric question here. I ended up with this 2.5 gallon jug of 15W40 400 SDE on clearance for less than the sticker price. I know it's not blessed with the Ford specifications. My owners manual states to only use API approved symbol/CJ-4 motor oil, which it is. Would you happily...

Hello all, I just did my yearly UOA and received some surprisingly poor results from Amsoil SS 5w20 oil with only 7,622 miles on it. The oil was ran in a 2015 Ford F150 with the 5.0. My driving habits are 80% highway, 20% city, and low yearly mileage, but my average trip is around 20 miles one...

^ the rot in question. I checked the rest of the underbody and its crusty, but I can't find any other holes or cracks. I'm stuck with the car, so what do I do now? Ride with it? Patch it? It needs front suspension work badly, but I can't see how I can get that done before I fix this.

A little while ago I went on a short trip hauling a covered trailer with quads. It worked my F150 with the 5.0 a little bit at highway speeds, but the truck performed well. Following the trip, I hav noticed my average MPG has increased by a full 2 MPG. My driving habits are the same. Is an...

I want a good oil where I don’t have to do any mixing … will Lucas oil 10w 40 conventional with high zink ( hot rod and classic) work or is another brand of oil recommended ? Thanks in advance

How are these motors holding up at 200K to 300K miles? Do such examples exist? Are there any known issues with them on newer (or older) models? Google search seemed like a ghost town for any information more recent than early 2022. I've driven an Escape with one and I liked the powerband's...

Hello all, I used to own a Ford Fusion with the 6F35 and noticed the same thing happen on that as what is currently happening with my F150 with 6R80. As I accelerate and shift through the gears, the tranny shifts to fourth gear and shortly after the shift, the rpm will drop as I accelerate. To...

I have a V6 2002 F150 single cab two wheel drive. A few years ago I replaced my blown shocks with Gabriel Pro Guards. They ride very harsh, and stiff. I can feel every little pebble on the road and if I run over a leaf. I drive mostly on the highway, I’m looking for something more soft and...

A bit of a specific question here, but I've tried contacting Ford and they haven't gotten back to me. I purchased a 2011 Ford Focus recently and the guy I bought it from was unaware of the whole capless fuel system for the car. As a result, he snapped off the outer bit of plastic around the fuel...
