    Cyl 3 misfire (P0303)

    I may have missed it, and I just looked again but didn't see anything. OP what year is your truck if you don't mind me asking? And what part number of lifter did they use for replacement?

    Ford's new on-board 'scales'

    There is no way I can hold a candle to that sweet sweet dirt squirrel on his upper lip! I just cant pull it off. But I did come across your FB with your profile pic. Just a couple of favors though... please stop saying "meow" on guard. And when you're in the terminal please please for the...

    Ford's new on-board 'scales'

    Ok Mr (or Ms or Mrs) spikey haired RJ management. 🤣 We've derailed OP's thread enough. I like the idea of this new Ford feature. Could / should make a lot more people a LOT more safe by not being stupid hauling 4 tons in the bed. I just hope it doesnt' turn into a snitch. Sorta like the...

    Ford's new on-board 'scales'

    So if I have 175 customers and all together them and their carryon bags averaged out exceed the standard weight (which definitely happens)... You're actually trying to tell me that it's not exceeding the MTOW cause of " muh averages" and it's a matter of fuel burn now. Damm son... Hope you get...

    Ford's new on-board 'scales'

    Weird flex. Careful you may get put in your place private pilot. or if you are on the line...You sound like the type of pilot that would be ok with cameras in the ****pit. Most of my colleagues wouldn't want that. But maybe you are management. Eh dunno. And if you are a professional...

    Ford's new on-board 'scales'

    Hmmm.... "Sir the computer says you overloaded your vehicle. We won't be covering the transmission" Hope that never goes in that direction

    Cracked Exhaust? Really?

    Yup. They certainly are predictable. Comical... No.. Pathetic.

    Cracked Exhaust? Really?

    Uh.... Here's your mirror. Read what you woke... eh...I mean wrote... real carefully.

    Cracked Exhaust? Really?

    o_O Now hyperbolic attacks. Straight out of woke playbook. Nowhere did I see the OP "spaz in drama mode". Get a freaking grip Koolies are gonna Koolie...

    Cracked Exhaust? Really?

    Wow. Hyperbolic equivocation much. Despicable.

    Cracked Exhaust? Really?

    Yeah...the apologists will dog pile here. Then when FCA (or whoever now) starts quietly addressing the issue because it IS an issue and it IS a big enough problem... it's crickets from them. They have no leg to stand on and slink away. Pathetic really, what I've seen from some here. BTW I...

    Rebel Specific Prices Paid

    I was D@mned impressed and happy with Victorville Motors. I'm North County SD and called them up for a '21 Rebel level pckge 1 on their lot. It was exactly the truck I wanted. Called them and said I'll give you $47100 + TTL for the truck and I'll drive up today. He said let me call you back...

    Sea foam Treatment

    I sea foamed my 02 F150 by pulling it through the pcv valve hose into the intake then letting it sit for while then fire it up and go drive out the gunk. I did that at 75k miles and WOW nothing came out. Just the tiniest hint of the smoke. My lesson for me was... Top tier gas and top qual oil...

    rodent damage

    The bait stations and poison you can buy at local lowes / homedepot did not help with my problem. In fact whenever I found their nests...they were using the bait as after dinner treats. It wasn't until I had a local pest co come out and put there baits out that the problem went away.

    musty smell after turn off AC...

    Welp... Lump me in with this same problem. Bought brand new end of Dec 2020. Porkchop lives in my climate controlled garage. It seemed to be after using recirc ac? If I used fresh air ac then turned off ac I don't remember getting it. Which is why I haven't seen it till now? Cause haven't...

    Disable MDS

    Once again... You prove that you are 100% completely wrong and don't fully understand what you are talking about. First off, the guy in the vid even corrects himself down in the comments somewhere. Stating that with the block off plates installed there is pressurized oil reaching the lifter...

    Disable MDS

    Ah..the good ole Uncle Tony offense. Well for your edification and peace of mind, I'm not referencing or using any of his info from his videos. I'm using this guy's video where he shows how the mds lifter (AND actually it's neighbor cylinder non mds lifters) are NOT getting oil from the main...

    Disable MDS

    No doubt You are correct that the needle bearings are the failure point. And dirty oil and low rpm idle causing insufficient oil getting to the needle bearings most likely are the causes of the needle bearings failing. Coupled with the lifter being raised and flattened out angle wise, I...

    Disable MDS

    I think someone else already touched on it here. But be careful of continually running without mds enabled. From my understanding the main oil galley to the mds lifters is controlled by the mds solenoids. It servers two purposes...solenoid on, it will oil the lifter AND deactivate the mds...

    Locked out

    I use one of those realtor house lock boxes that they hang on the door. I hang it underneath the truck in a spot that can't readily be seen and lock a spare FOB in it. Just make sure that you hang it far enough from the cab that there is no way for the truck to sense it. Just test your spot...
