What did you do to your GT350 today?

Learned the hard way you can't get Seafoam into the tank without using a funnel.

does the fuel system actually call for seaform? wasn't there something in the manual about not doing any additives or treaments and such?

Willing to learn kind of reply...

I store everything for the season with some Seafoam in the tanks.
Bikes, cars, snowmobiles, mowers, snowblowers, weed wackers, boats...

What a stunner!

Which polish and coating did you use?

Thanks, used Menzerna 2500 compound and polish and Rupes Yellow and white polish and pads. Topped with Griots 3 in 1, cars garaged kept, had a Gyeon Coating on it before, just did like it wasn’t slick

I put fuel system cleaner and fuel stabalizer in the gas tank at various times, and never have any problems. Might have problems if I didn't use those additives.

Gave ole dirty gurl a bath..well...more like a gas station scrub

Tried the "waterless wash and wax" out and I'm pleased with the results. Also, first time cleaning her up in the new garage

Took a ride out to a local winery with the wife yesterday. The strategy is to take the backroads pretty easy on the way out and then make sure she has 2 glasses of wine so I can be more aggressive on the way home.

Afterwards I cleaned the car up - first wash since coating. I can just dry it with a leaf blower.

My 11 year old was prepping for Forza Horizon 5 while I cleaned up the car. He said he was working on his "Heel/Toe". I laughed and said, not in sandals....

Emptied out my Ford oil seperator today on my 2019 GT350 with 5,400 miles on it. Siphoned out 1 1/2 ozs of oil. That's after 6 months, 3,700 miles, and driving a lot in the 7K-8k rpm range. And btw, no noticeable decrease in my oil level during that time. I think that's a pretty good indication of a well running engine, not burning any oil.

After four years of ownership I did my first line lock. I liked it so much I did it again. Only reason I did it was because I have new tires waiting in the wings.

Picking the rocks out of the fenders before she goes to bed. I feel like I am brushing its teeth.

Take the rear belly pan off too…

I bought these--work great and great quality. No more rocks kicking down the side of the car. https://www.auto-fanatic.com/product/shelby-gt350-shelby-gt350r-front-track-splash-guards-pre-order/

These rock guards are much simplier, and cheaper, and work just as well to keep rocks from going through to the back fenders. https://www.cjponyparts.com/jlt-per...ir-gt350-gt350r-mustang-2015-2020/p/JLTRB350/

So today I did an oil & filter change, and the NYS inspection, at the dealer, in preparation for winter storage. I have no garage, and no place to work on the car myself. While for an other car, this should be a no worry event, with these cars at the dealer, it's always a nerve wracking ordeal. At least they have only one particular mechanic, who is allowed to work on this car. And he is very good, in that I've never seen a single drop of oil spill from the bottom of the car after he is done.
But knowing I was going for the inspection, I knew what to expect. First, as is almost universal, the service manager tells me my tires(SC2's, 5500K miles) are bald. Not even close, as I tried to explain how these tires are even new. Luckily the mechanic knew, and said the tires are perfect.
But also knowing they have to remove the tires to inspect the brakes, I brought my no-mar lug nut wrench, and my torque wrench. And told the mechanic I had both in the front seat, and the tires should be torqued to 150lbs. When the car was ready, I saw the wrenches weren't even touched. Luckily no damage to the wheels. And once I got home, I double checked the wheel nuts, and sure enough, none were at 150lbs torque, and some weren't even close. So I took care of them myself.
Unfortunately, you have to watch carefully everything the dealers do, and sometimes just have to do things yourself. At least I can relax for a year before doing it again.

Those aren't going to do anything to protect the paint down the sides of the car.
