A custom tune and removing the nanny plug took away that low RPM bog on my '22. The only drawback from removing the plug is the accelerometer on Track Apps doesn't work.

Believe it or not cars ran fine since the early 1900's with the owners keeping track of when their next oil change should be. This oil monitor thing is for the idiots that can't seem to do that on their own. Don't be that person. Decide on a "mileage between changes" that you're comfortable with...

Pushing your cars handling to the limits out in the country slaloming thru winding, curving roads and almost swapping ends (I've heard that a few times on this forum) could also kill an innocent oncoming driver. Street racing isn't the only foolish thing you can do in your car to ruin lives.

This has happened on every daily driver I have owned for any substantial period of time. Domestic, foreign, battery covered, battery not covered. It doesn't happen until the battery is older and it's not long after that the battery fails, at least in my experience. This is something I check and...

I have a 2022 and switching to 93 made no seat of the pants difference. (ran as much of the 87 out as possible before filling up with 93). Not saying it didn't make a little more HP's, just saying it wasn't noticeable. However, after getting a 93 octane tune I can tell a difference at lower rpm's.

I see. Didn't realize they had taken trans out at dealer.

Are there any independent transmission repair shops around you? If so, call and see if they are familiar with your transmission. I've rebuilt a few old "non-electronic" transmissions, but I'll be the first to admit I have no experience with the modern stuff. The torque convertor is a means of...

Took this on a cold November drive in Illinois.

Did you mean 74 to 78? Surely we are not crapping on early Fox Bodies.

Is throttle mapping the only thing that changes from one mode to another? Does any timing get added?

My wife and I were at the Corvette Museum in March. She snapped this picture. Whether or not you like Vettes, I think this museum and the assembly plant tour are well worth the money. (Wow, it is almost the exact same picture)

Was going to do a 1/4 mile run, got thru the choices of "0 to 1/4 mile", "automatic start", but when I "pressed OK to continue" nothing happened. I've got the nanny plug out, so I'm hoping that is the reason.

If someone were to run their engine with no coolant in the overflow does not at all guarantee a ruined engine. The amount of liquid in the overflow compared to what is in the engine is like spitting in the ocean. Besides, a light will come on the dash indicating a hot engine long before any...

Lets say that you already drove your Mustang in a manner that would cause Ford to deny a warranty claim or cause an insurance company to raise your rates. Would it really do any good to disconnect TCU now, when they have already collected the data? {Kinda like the whole once it's on the internet...

Leaves here in central Illinois are about a week away from full color.

Those settings make things worse in my car.

This is the one I used. Search Amazon and you will find it. There are several different brands, but they all look exactly the same. I used a 1/2' drive socket and ratchet, no impact, to keep things nice and smooth as I compressed. FWIW I don't plan on ever using it again as the other method was...

OP, I applaud you for learning to drive a car with a transmission that YOU are in control of. After reading some of the threads on this forum it seams that some people think that they should be able to just cram there foot to the floor and everything works perfectly, like no wheel spin and no...

Ended up trying it both ways. Used a version of the two-piece spring compressor on first side that I purchased off of Amazon for about $45. It had a brace that goes between both pieces, and it worked very well. I installed the new BMR spring by bolting the upper mount back in place and then...
