Yep!

I’m sure this has been asked plenty of times before but I’m asking again haha... I’m looking for a bit more straight line grip but I don’t want to ditch the factory 2015 pp 19” wheels. Anyone have any recommendations on tire/ size that works well on the factory setup? I currently have 275/40/19...

I’ll add to this incredibly nebulous conversation/issue. I’ve had three coyote mustangs over the last 7 years. All three ticked... I’ve read hundreds and hundreds of pages in forums searchIng for an answer... there are just about as many answers as there posts about this issue. All I can say...

Don’t have it off hand... but I do know it depends on whether your car is auto or manual. Different part numbers due to cable/wire length....

That is bank 1 sensor 1 (passenger, pre-cat)02 sensor heater element

P0050 is bank 2 sensor 1 i.e. DRIVERS SIDE, pre cat just did mine...

that’s really helpful actually! So I am running retail pump e85. I didn’t know there were lubricity additives in pump e85?? Good to know!

https://www.sae.org/publications/technical-papers/content/2000-01-1917/ A lot of work has been done in this area in regards to diesel. Oilnews.com has a lot of info as well

Just to reiterate I’m not an expert haha... but my take on it is that it would really depend on how much heat/boost you’re making. If I was tracking a pd blown car that’s normally a daily driver I’d probably swap oil for the day. That said, do I think the car will blow up if you don’t? Probably...

I’m no expert but I’ve tried to read as much as possible on the subject. The consensus seems to be keep it 5-20 or 5-30 unless tracking the car. Oil weight has more to do with temperature....With modern synthetic being highly resistant to mechanical sheer there’s really no reason to go much...

Just had a sensor fail.. same issue with the heater failing but on bank one... just threw a new sensor in..all good now. On e85 for only 1k miles

If this in fact for a daily driver I probably wouldn’t use 5w-50.

I’ve been running with no lube for over a year. I’m sure it would be fine for a couple more years as well but I’m looking to get oem level reliability out of e85...

I’ve heard a lot of people use mmo. So I’m sure it’s not a huge deal but Marvel mystery oil says to not mix it into anything above e30 I believe. It’s not actually soluble in alcohol.

I totally know what you’re saying ... and in regards to most fuel additives I would agree with you... but fuel lubricity and how it correlates to top end wear is fairly easy to quantify. People much smarter than me have written quite a bit on the subject.

For whatever it’s worth...I talked with Lucas just a few days ago and they said their ethanol shield stuff has very very little lubricity. And their dedicated upper lube product is not soluble in alcohol so it can’t/shouldn’t be used. It seems there are not many options with out going into race...

looking at that front end... I would imagine so!

That’s good advice/info.. the article was definitely emphasizing methanol but was stating e85 as a solid compromise. That’s why I wondered if running e85 along with water/methanol injection would be effective in combating high cylinder temps under high boost.

Any thoughts on my situation with the head temps dropping? I know alcohol is an excellent charge cooler but I was under the impression that it also help control cylinder temps. Not that I had a scientific reason why, I guess it was just an ... whether it be the effect in latent heat or just the...

one other thought: it’s my understanding that specifically water injection is extremely effective in controlling cylinder temps... anyone have first hand experience with this?
