  1. Operating temp takes a long time

    Looking at the System Operation page of the cooling system. The engine and heater coolant are separete. The quote below is from the Service Manual. Like SK47 stated, the heater is getting warmer coolant before the rest of the cooling system does. "Engine coolant flows primarily from the engine...
  2. Operating temp takes a long time

    The OP didn't say that this is a change from what he is used to seeing, or something that he has just now observed. He didn't state what his outside temps were during this observation. I know for me, that when outside temps are in the 40s. Going from my home to the freeway on ramp is a mile and...
  3. Look under back seat

    The tank has the LPFP, which is electric and is on the drivers side. The tank also has a transfer pump that is a jetpump. It transfers fuel from the passengers side to drivers side of the tank and is located on the passenger side of the tank. The HPFP is located on the R/H side valve cover and...
  4. what exhaust you guys running with catless headers

    I don't have headers, but am catless. I have the Borla Touring with the resonator. Deep exhaust note, with no rasp. It's at the max of my comfort level, in terms of loudness.
  5. Remote Tuning Vs. Dyno Tuning

    No, the results should be the same between dyno and remote. The big difference is that doing pulls is cheaper, but you are doing it on public roads and are subject to being busted for speed. Dyno pulls adds cost, but not subject to a speeding ticket. I've not done one in my Mustang, since I'm...
  6. Best O2 spacer/mini cat 15-17 GT

    Vibrant J shaped defoulers is what I use. I use the middle sized orifice, with good results. It now seems that Vibrant sells the orifices separately for another $12.00 per defouler. Don't use a knock off, I learned the hard way a few days ago.
  7. Remote Tuning Vs. Dyno Tuning

    Remote tuning, you do "Pulls" and datalog. You send the data logs to your tuner, they look at it and will tweak it. You then do another pull and data log, send it to them, etc, til you are maxed out. Dyno tuning, you do the pulls on a dyno and typically the tuner is in the car with a laptop and...
  8. Have you ever broken a defouler?

    I've been using the middle size orifice, with no problems in around 10K miles. YMMV.
  9. AC clutch kicks in then immediately disengages

    Sorry for the small pics. I don't have a free converter to change pdf to jpeg, so I had to take windows screen shots.
  10. Have you ever broken a defouler?

    I got the Vibrant J shaped defoulers from Summit Racing yesterday. I was assuming that the three orifices and snap ring would come with it, you have to purchase the orifice kit separately. Luckily the ones from my knock off fit. One set of three orifices and the snap ring has a MSRP of $12.00...
  11. What the ####!!!!!

    That would be easy if the home was on propane. Not so easy when you are handcuffed to one piped in natural gas provider. For me that would be PG&E, no other options.
  12. What the ####!!!!!

    Oh boy, did this thread go sideways. Sorry OP.
  13. What the ####!!!!!

    If that's what you want to term it, so be it. Works for me.
  14. What the ####!!!!!

    Yeah, I've been called a "Cheap Charlie" many times, the savings all add up. But I have no problems spending 3+K for a custom forged receiver M14, carbon road bikes, etc.
  15. 93 Octane tester???

    I have no clue as to it's accuracy. I found one brand Oktis-2, which has a price range of $140-$351, depending on retailer. The others were in the thousands. Update: According to a Youtube video of the tester mentioned above. If the fuel has ethanol in it, the reading is inaccurate. That...
  16. What the ####!!!!!

    Here is a screenshot of my Dec bill for gas. Total for gas and electricity was $63.43
  17. What the ####!!!!!

    When my HVAC system is due for a replacement, I plan on going ductless/minisplit. Those systems are basically a heat pump. I have it in one of my rentals and works great. Each room will have an air handler and one condenser can run IIRC up to 3 air handlers. So, basically each room will have...
  18. What the ####!!!!!

    We've been doing this for about 5 years now. I love the cold. The wife and kids never complained at all. The thermostat for upstairs and downstairs are set cold, but since each room has a space heater, they are usually around 65-66 degrees for a typical occupied room. It's important to keep the...
