  1. Synthetic Oil (Hybrid Maverick)

    Simple answer. Small picture.

  2. Blackstone Labs Oil Analysis Comparison at 10k Miles

    I was just wondering. I live 65 miles from Death Valley. It gets warm here. To me, it means that my engine reaches operating temperature 180°+ faster🤣 2 years ago I saw this on my Buick If I'm not mistaken. The engine is designed to reach and operate at temperatures close to 200°.

  5. Maverick Hybrid engine pre-heater, any ideas for a DIY solution?

  10. Anyone changed their spark plugs on the turbo 2.0?

    I try not to give a general answer or personal experience. I try to refer/post from the owners manual as much as practical.
  11. 👉🏻UPDATE👇🏻 Ford uses Torx PLUS ++ Here is the Difference

    I did exactly the same as you. And I don't own a torque wrench. 😱
  12. Anyone changed their spark plugs on the turbo 2.0?

    I'm guessing if that's the primary use of the vehicle that makes sense. Some should just admit they're seeking an excuse to just work on their Maverick.
  13. Anyone changed their spark plugs on the turbo 2.0?

    I didn't know if you were doing something like Lyft, Uber, GrubHub, farm...etc. type service.
