I've used K&N filters since the early 90's. A few of my vehicles got over 180K miles with these filters on. So I don't see the issue with dirt getting into the intake. I had one Nissan 720 hitting 280k miles with K&N filter through it's life. One vehicle required filter cleaning every 3...

Blow it clean, water, soap, rinse and dry it out. Re-oil some other versions.

Happened to me. Used a tap to clean out the threads and bought new bolts from Ford. Loosened all the bolts and the subframe aligned perfectly.

I just slapped the jack onto the jacking rail. Works just fine in a emergency.

I have the Automotive Authority spare and had to use it two weekends ago. I got a big hole in the rear tire and no way to plug it up. I drive around with a small air compressor and plugs for quick fixes, but couldn't use it this time around. The car drove fine up to 80mph......I had to test...

That sounds like the BMS is the culprit. Like it produces enough "noise" to trip/interfere with the more sensitive electronics. Good to know about the AG batteries, and I'll stay away from it. Kinda pricey too for such little capacity.

Do you think something like a 2 farad capacitor in parallel with the AG battery would've helped. I'm thinking there was to much ripple current with that tiny battery under load, causing the havoc you were experiencing.

I don't drag race my Bullitt. I am just a spirited driver, that like to do a few hard pulls to 150+mph, taking fast corners, etc. Other than that, I drive my slow cars on the daily.

I got into Royal Purple oil through my drag racing buddies, 20+ years ago. I've always noticed a difference with the RP stuff. I've swapped back and forth with other oils and the RP to me feels better. It got kinda pricey once they went mainstream, so I started using Pennzoil engine oil. 23...

It depends what I feel like. Skip gears. Neutral and coast. Neutral ->Coast->Downshift. Brake->Downshift->Repeat. Stay in gear and coast. Stay in gear->Coast->Neutral ->brake. Brake hard->Downshift through the gears.

I stopped putting Costco gas in all my vehicles. All my cars drove like crap with the fuel I use to get from the Willbrook location in Houston. My SUV's were sluggish, my cars would produce a check engine light at times. And my carb'ed Nissan 720 needed octane booster after a fill up...

My Scion XB lived in your region for 20 years, before I brought it to Houston. No rust what's so ever underneath and it has 209K miles on it.

Filled up this morning and car reported 212 miles to Empty. Paid 2.71 for E85 this morning. Premium is at 3.85. I have never purchased any vehicle for MPG's. If I did, my wife would've looked like a beat up prius, instead of a Pagani. I crack myself up.

Steeda E85 and 93 tune. Mostly running on E85 as it has the mostest of the funnest factor. Tune passes the State inspection. 93 Steeda Tune is ok. Also tried the 5 star tuning 93 and E85 tunes, which are ok. Bullitt only comes in manual. Mods: Just the Soler throttle body, which made a...

The pigtail on top of the rear shock is easiest to see.

The exhaust note is unique on the Bullitt. Sounds like the one in the movie.

Fellow Houstonian here. I've seen quite a few Bullitt's in Houston. Some are goofy looking with mods, but most look stock. I'm biased, so my answer is go for the Bullitt. It's a fun car after some minor upgrades. The DHG color is nice. The intake manifold and larger throttlebody sets the...

Do this, but run with E85 and 8000 rpm limiter.

Been using radars since the early 90's. After my last Escort died on me, I decided to go with the Radenso DS1. Range is as good as the top dog stuff. Doesn't have arrows, but I never needed one in the decades I've been using radars. The DS1 with the Highway Radar app and the Saber plug-in is...

161MPH !!! That car looks like it sticks like glue. Engine sounds nice man.
