Its because they picked 1234yf refrigerant for CAFE credits. R134a is 30% more efficient and also 100% compatible while being 8% of the cost of 1234yf as well. If you ever have to open the system you may as well replace the fittings and put 134a in. "The R-1234yf CAFE credits are 13.8 g/mi for...

Ford gives priority to sold orders. Which gets dealers better allocations. They also have less wiggle on the back end on a sold order so some dealers would rather make bank instead of numbers. Some dealers are positioning to volume dealers rather than greed dealerships.

You are lucky some methhead didn't just crawl under and drill the tank to drain it. Or cut off the DPF think it was a catalytic convertor.

If its actually heating oil it's not pump diesel or kerosene. It's usually a heavier more viscous blend and it also has a TON of sulfur. https://blog.ansi.org/astm-d396-fuel-oils-standard-specification/ It depends on the S# and the higher the number the cheaper it is.

There's a little flap by the headlight plastic. Lift that up. your cord should be in there. Follow the wiring up.

A diesel engine can run on any combustible fuel. You could even tweak them to run on gasoline or propane with the appropriate changes to the fuel air mix and compression so they don't detonate prematurely. Bunch of guys at my old state job bought rapeseed oil( canola oil ) by the tanker. It was...

It should come on at whatever you've left it at when you turned it off. Exception if the battery is low/dead or dying, then it will all be off.

Most washer fluid has a large portion as alcohol to help with evaporation and a solvent and antifreeze. It also keeps stuff from growing in your tank. I would bet someone topped you up with plain water and it's been growing and fermenting in there.

I've seen trucks come in with different colored seats and trim. No ones cares at all anymore about quality. It's just ship product let someone else fix it later.

Most of these devices, when they work, just instantly kill whatever they are plugged into. It's not hollywood with smoke and flames. Just suddenly dead. Screen shuts off or freezes and that's it. Won't turn back on. Just dead like a dead battery. There's no obvious this thing just fried my...

Just put an airtag in it, or an old cellphone that you can track that's wired in for power.

I'd make a USBKill type capacitive discharge on the +12v line of the ODB port. Have a hidden button to disable/discharge it. Plug in something without hitting that button and poof goes the equipment.

The air shocks are huge. Tells are: No sticker on the back window ( RAM AIR SUSPENSION ). No toggle on dash. No button on the keyfob. Look closer at the window sticker. Often one package will say NAW package name. That means one package deleted another one.

They are "regulated" in Florida. They are valid in Florida. Just have it sent to your other home in another state.

Yeah it sucks. People can't handle distractions, much less while driving. The # 1 rule is don't hit anything. The second one is pay attention at all times. This guy failed both. The trailer on the other side is less of a threat than the travel trailer stopping in front of you. Even if you were...

He was paying attention to the other trailer on the other side of the road and stopped looking at you until it was too late. I saw that coming, but he didn't. Not much you can do to avoid being hit from behind. Not stopping on the road is a big one, but not much choice when you've got a trailer...

Who would buy a 3500 and not tow anything? Soccer moms who need a dually for cred?

They also make cable ties with blocks, you can put on the screw. That would probably work to hold it well enough.

Could you just use a good zip tie? maybe one with the metal tooth to bite stronger.

The older ecodiesels did this and several of them caught fire. STOP DRIVING THE TRUCK!
