  1. Only dumb people buy Ford Mavericks.....

    I Remember when having 550HP was considered fast. I still have this one. But my 18 GT puts out almost double the HP. Things are just different now. My son's GT500 is stock, since he's in Commiefornia.

  2. Only dumb people buy Ford Mavericks.....

    Sorry, non ethanol won't work without spending $10+ a gallon for race gas. My entire fuel system has been replaced with parts designed for E85. An old shade tree mechanic probably wouldn't understand. This is how most do it now. I can't even buy ethanol free gas in my area.

  3. Only dumb people buy Ford Mavericks.....

    Mine has all the same intake plumbing as a stock '13 GT500, but, has a (aftermarket) smaller pulley on the snout, and a bigger pulley on the belt drive. I also have a bigger inter-cooler tank, radiator and pump than the stock 2012 (not sure compared to the '13?). Then, mine was tuned with all...

  4. Only dumb people buy Ford Mavericks.....

    93 octane is only good to 10PSI.

  5. Only dumb people buy Ford Mavericks.....

    ...laced gas. Always try to find non-ethanol gas and pay the extra, especially for my GT500 which has to use 93 octane due to my bigger blower/pulley and tune. And yes, understand the HP advantage of ethanol and still dont like it. My daily driver and tow vehicle typically get gas where I can...

  6. 👉🏻UPDATE👇🏻 Ford uses Torx PLUS ++ Here is the Difference

    Of course everyone should have this set: :cool: EDIT: For anyone who's curious, that is a "30pcs alternator freewheel pulley removal set." I just grabbed it as an example of 'special tools' that very few of us need.

  7. Engine oil leak

    Mangled a few brain cells reading that one. Steve

  8. Engine oil leak

    ...side of pan under motor, leak off of timing cover, back side of engine, so glad he mentioned it, as it could of gone many thousands of miles before drip would of showed up on drive, take right tire off, u can see crank pulley , timing cover etc, looks like major job? They got truck repairing now

  9. eCVT Transmission - Engineering Explained

    WestCoast, what year Rogue and how many miles? My daughter has an '18 with 80k miles. We did the dealer tranny flush at 70k but I'm curious if there's anything further we should be doing...

  10. eCVT Transmission - Engineering Explained

    ...tranny, I almost walked away. A little more study revealed the brilliant engineering of the eCVT (and how different it was from the belt-and-pulley CVT). I spent some time watching the above videos and reading more about eCVT. It's freakin' brilliant. With very few mechanical wear...

  11. Which is more efficient way of accelerating?

    As someone who has put around 200k miles on Subarus with their CVT, the reason so many of us get defensive is that it that the HF55 feels nothing like a traditional CVT. Power is immediate. There is no rubber band effect at all. Just linear power delivery.

  12. Which is more efficient way of accelerating?

    ...controlled continuously variable transmission (eCVT) which is a robust, beltless system with a planetary gearset, not a traditional pulley-and-belt CVT, making it highly reliable. This efficient design blends power from the 2.5L engine and electric motors, providing smooth, seamless operation...

  13. Interior light going off

    “In the old days” with a newish battery not holding a charge I’d clean the terminals, tighten the clamps, test the liquid inside the battery, look at a stretched belt, tension pulley, etc… Now, maybe a - “bad charging system” - ?

  14. Connecting a winch to bed options

    Instead of a winch I saw a trick where you hook a pulley to the bed, tie a rope to the deer and drive forward and it pulls the deer into the box. Iam sure you could Google it.

  15. Facelift 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD is a lot quicker/faster than 2024 FWD Model (acceleration figures by Car and Driver)

    Ford and Toyota literally call it an E-CVT. CVT Simply means the ratio is continuously variable. That's ALL. Belts and pulleys vs the motor and planetary gear is simply the METHOD by which the CV or continuous variable ratio is accomplished. As a Ford technician, I call it what Ford calls it...

  16. Facelift 2025 Maverick Hybrid AWD is a lot quicker/faster than 2024 FWD Model (acceleration figures by Car and Driver)

    ...so different that to call them both CVTs is about as needlessly misleading as you can get. The mechanical "belt & continuously variable ratio pulley" CVT transmission is lighter weight than a hybrid-electric drive & battery, but completely unlike the hybrid electric drivetrain the...

  17. Oil change monitor says oil life is 15% after only 3000 miles driving

    ...the Honda forums the mechanical CVT transmissions in vehicles like Honda, are extremely sensitive to old ATF fluid. Mechanical belt & clutch pulley CVTs are lighter & get better fuel efficiency than standard clutches plate automatic trannys, but they have much lower holding torque & in normal...

  18. Hybrid Transmission Design

    Toyota and Ford codeveloped their hybrid drivetrains and shared original patents. Ford did not copy and Ford did not borrow the technology. Those patents are no longer relevant. This is on the HF35 (we're now on the HF55) but Weber Auto is the best at helping you understand

  19. Hybrid Transmission Design

    Thanks for posting that which may be considered "old" information for newer members who had the same questions about the transmission on the hybrid.

  20. Hybrid Transmission Design

    I've been on this forum from the very beginning, and I don't remember ever reading anyone having a problem with the eCVT used on the Maverick. It's the one thing without recalls!
