There are so many other things that can leave you stranded besides a bad crankshaft in modern vehicles but you are worried about a crankshaft.
You should be happy about the 8/100,000 ratio. Drive the piss out of it for a couple thousand miles and see if the crankshaft blows the motor at...
There are already holes smaller than these large 1-3/4 size size holes that would plug up much easier with salt.
The idea of more air is to keep the temperature below the fire temp so more air is good if it doesn't get hot enough to fire.
My idea of this thread was adding photos of the work...
date done 7/14/22
done at Oroville Ford
Dropped off 11am picked up 3pm.
Comment: They took me home and picked me up when done.
First class dealer no dents/scratches or grease left on truck. Always look before leaving.
Work order only says drill 5 holes and remove 4 blinds
I am not sure...
Here is my 2 cents.
My truck is at the Ford dealer as I type this. Been there since 10:30am. Not sure when they got to it and not sure when it will be done. In my state of CA if you don't do a recall you don't get to register your vehicle again. Instead of bitching or worrying about it, I...
I ordered my Maverick in September with a check for 500.00. I also went back to dealer about the end of September because 1.9 financing was ending on 10/4. I asked if I could lock that in ahead of getting my truck. He said he would check and get back to me. He texted me the NEXT day. Not...
Mine had 14 miles on it when I went to look at it and sign the papers and leave but I asked my Salesman Tomy if he ever drove one yet, He said no. I tossed him the keys and said, "let's go for a ride". He drove it about 8 miles more. Thanked me for the chance to drive it. I have dropped by...
If you think the gas pedal looks cheap, look at the intake manifold on the engine and it gets hotter than the pedal. My wife's 2003 Focus had a plastic intake and it developed a vacume leak. Took it to Ford dealer. They broke the original plastic intake manifold fixing the leak. That...
My 2016 (6 years old) Prius gets it's oil changed for a low price of 70.00 (parts and labor) every 10k miles since new. I check it under the hood maybe 1 or 2 times between service. I pull the dipstick, check level, get some on my fingers (no sex jokes) and rub them together and look and smell...
I wonder who will be servicing those 100 O'Rielly Mavericks.
But I really don't care. If I could buy 100 and turn 99, that would be better than Bitcoin back when it wasn't falling.
if it were my hybrid doing that I would try the same route for a week using a different mode. rain mode, eco mode, normal. Put a note on your dash to remind you what mode you are on and when you started using the mode. Then see what happens. It may just be programming and an upgrade should...

I had a neighbor cat coming in my back yard crapping and getting under my shed. I trapped it for 2 days then washed him well with water. Set him free and I've never seen him again. You could trap it, put in under your tonneau cover for a few hours while you drive around. Walk around your...
My first bike, my dad gave me his 1941 knuckhead Harley 74 in 1963 when I started high school. It had 4 speed shifter on left side of tank and foot clutch. Today my 41st bike is a Honda Rebel 1100 with 95hp and dual clutch automatic and gets about 50+mpg. I would rather die riding than die in...
You got a good start but think cleanliness everywhere.
My Mav is my 67th car/truck. Motorcycles are 41. So you can guess I have sold a lot of used vehicles. My last car was a 2005 Honda Civic loaned to me by a relative. Was dirty, unused lately but they wanted to sell it after I was done...
