    Throttle position sensor reset?

    Old thread! I've wondered the same thing. Some people swear it improved their vehicles response. The know it all tech types say it's not real and it's a placebo effect. I say if you think it worked and you went from sport to city on pedal commander then it did something positive. The question...

    Power loss after running

    it's just weird man, are there any codes? I just can't imagine it's the turbos but you never know. Also sounds like when your catalytic converter is clogged but I can't imagine it could be that already. Gotta be something dumb. Have you tried doing the throttle reset? Not sure it would help but...

    Power loss after running

    Now that I think about it My son had the same issue on his ford focus st. It was the plastic pipe intercooler piping that came loose. Check all intercooler piping and make sure the clamps are tight. If the problem was there prior to replacing the BoV chances are it's an intercooler pipe that's...

    Casey’s gives me bad gas

    I'll be there in Desmoines tomorrow. I may just go ahead and try their breakfast pizza hahaha Anyway that sucks when a state can't get at least 93 octane. When I travel from texas to Oklahoma for an event I gotta bring my own gas, they don't have anything higher than 91!

    Casey’s gives me bad gas

    You must be up in the Midwest lol possibly iowa. I keep hearing about their breakfast pizza but in the year I keep traveling there on a monthly basis I've yet to try it. Casey's is like the 711 of the Midwest lol

    Thermostat going bad?

    Too funny about Birdnard haha Anyway as far as the posters question goes...definitely purge all air out as it could be the culprit but if the issue just started randomly one day I'd be willing to bet the thermostat could be maybe sticking. Replacing the thermostat is the cheapest, easiest way...

    GEN 2 anyone running a 170 thermostat?

    Thank you, that's good information. I remember when people removed thermostats altogether lol, cars were less picky back then I guess.

    Power loss after running

    Ah that makes sense. Is there a chance it is defective or maybe something came undone or loose? You're definitely on the right path with the boost leak imo

    Power loss after running

    I don't think you should hear blow off valve even after let off since it's not an after market blow off valve type but actually a recirculating bov ...thoughts ‍♂️

    Power loss after running

    maybe a blow off valve? Weird that it only does it after warming up but it may be that it's just getting worse and randomly going out.

    Power loss after running

    Definitely a boost leak

    Towing a large boat with the gen 3

    I had an F350 King Ranch 2wd with the 6.7 power stroke diesel. Loved loved loved it. 8ft bed and towing capacity to do just about anything. Looked awesome too. 2015 model so not the newest or baddest but man she was awesome. Go F250/F350 power stroke Diesel. It's just a better engine...

    GEN 2 anyone running a 170 thermostat?

    Hello all! So I didn't update my comment above on the thermostat. Actually after much research on thermostats and their function I decided to stick with what was already installed in my truck which was a 192 degree. I went with a gates 192 since A: I had no reason to change that, I hadn't had...

    Mishimoto radiator question

    Well that really sucks because I just finished my Mishimoto radiator install on my Gen 1 I'm literally finishing the burping process and now I'm wondering if my radiator will be crap or maybe they did something different or better since 2022 that may make a difference today. Did you ever get...

    6.2 Radiator Leaks & Excessive Coolant Pressure

    Received Mishimoto unit today. It is pretty, I hope it works as well on my raptor as Mishimoto has worked on my other boosted cars. It's a pain in the @$& to install though. I got as far as removing the factory unit and cleaned up to continue the job tomorrow or whenever. Then I hit the pool...

    GEN 2 anyone running a 170 thermostat?

    Good stuff, in the process of switching oem radiator to an all aluminum 3row unit. Doing a complete flush, replacing hoses and going with 160 thermostat.

    6.2 Radiator Leaks & Excessive Coolant Pressure

    Crap...I just ordered The Mishimoto radiator for my 2013 screw $668 on Amazon. I have Mishimoto radiators in 3 other cars all either supercharged or turbo and never had an issue so I've always thought Mishimoto was good quality. I thought certainly better than oem being all aluminum and 3 row...

    Signed up for the EXO run 2/28-2/22!

    I'm headed to Baja on their 3/17-20th 2023! I just registered so I haven't received any confirmation from them. Looks like they stay pretty busy. Did you guys have the option to rent the Radio and GPS from them? Was there 93 octane along the way, just curious if I'll need to get a different tune.

    Transfer case or trans sounds?

    So not sure on yours, hard to tell sound from the video but recently like days ago my truck started making a sound in between shifts that after researching turns out to be "torque converter shutter" very common in our trucks Only does it when I first drive the truck intermittently and after...
