^^^Wow. Is this on a new truck or did you buy it used? Smart move taking it to the dealership!!!

^^^Advance Auto has that tool for $19.99. O'reilly has that tool for $12.99 with free next-day shipping to the store. Ordered it!

What, no furry dice hanging from the rear view mirror or lights in the wheel wells?:D

Noooo, it makes you a candidate for therapy! Just kidding. Extra front illumination is real smart in rural areas where two lane highways are so prevalent. Here in northern Nevada US-93 is a perennial killer. It's a main north-south route for all kinds of traffic including 18-wheelers south...

This one looks like it might work. It's good for filters as small as 2 1/2 inches in diameter, and the filter in question is 2 5/8 inch. Anybody got one of these...

Thanks, @Nex . I'm going to be looking for another kind of wrench for that filter. The problem is its size. It's only 2 5/8 inch in diameter. And then there is the access to it. Just like the transmission dipstick on my GEN1 Raptor, access to the filter on the Toyota Venza hybrid was not a...

So, first oil change on my wife's new Toyota Venza hybrid. The oil filter is tiny and it was stuck tight. The boys at the assembly plant really got me. Apparently they didn't lube the oil filter gasket, and they torqued it down with the aid of a team of oxen. The confines are too tight to...

Well, you'll have to pull the fuel tank guard, run the truck, and see if you can determine whether the true source is a hole or split seam in the fuel tank, a split in the high pressure fuel line, a failure in the return line, or a gasket failure where the fuel pump is mounted in the fuel tank...

This is not a recall, it's a lawsuit. I urge caution here. These are lawyers. Think Camp Lejune. "Did you use the water at Camp Lejune from 1953 through 1987 to wash your truck? You may be entitled to significant compensation! Paint damage, body and frame rust, windshield damage, and...

Unless you smell gas in the vicinity of the exhaust pipes at the rear of the vehicle, then tightening up the slop in the exhaust system is not going to solve your gas odor problem. To be certain that you don't have a leak in the high pressure fuel delivery system there is a dye that can be...

This is a real puzzler - one for @FordTechOne.

Mr. Ford Tech One has an exceptional knowledge bank and is quite willing to share it. He makes valuable contributions on FRF. But in my personal experience he is not fond of the 6.2L V8 "boat anchor."

I disagree with the assertion that black is the fastest color. Invisible is the fastest color, followed by stealth, and camo.

BINGO - maintenance records. My wife recently traded in her 2013 Ford Edge with 200,000 miles on it for a Toyota Venza hybrid, and I presented the dealership with a single-page record of every oil change, air filter change, transaxle/transfer case/differential fluid change, spark plug change...

Same here.

A standard denial. You should be in politics. "I did not have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinsky." - William Jefferson Clinton

It'll take heavy equipment and a fleet of flatbeds to clean up that disaster. Yup. We had two record-for-the-date snowfalls last week with a storm total of 13.1 inches. The Sheriff's Office search and rescue team was going to have field training tomorrow but it was called off due to the range...

What a despicable mess. The state ought to clean that up, get rid of all that rusting crap, and restore the area to its original natural beauty.

A small community of us on FRF, unknown to most, are trained photo interpretation techs. If you would like to provide photos of the driver's seat, passenger seat, and the area where the seats interface with your anatomy, we'll be glad to render our opinions on this matter. Failing that, I...

Excellent information. Very glad you posted this! BTW, my 2011 GEN1 does not appear to have that Hall effect battery sensor on the negative cable.

Your turn.

Double-check the area around and under the "goosneck" where the engine thermostat is housed. Mine leaked there because there was a little corrosion on the gooseneck that prevented a good pressure seal between it and the hose. I think that a crack in the reservoir or radiator is more likely...

The HUDs available from F150LEDs display digital MPH and a bar scale representation of RPM. One other digital parameter can be displayed - your choice of engine temp, battery voltage (more about that in a minute), time of day, fuel burn rate, or lap time. Only one of those five choices can be...
