I discovered back in the 1980's that Fel-Pro is the best aftermarket gasket company around.

Great job 👍. All in less than 9 minutes 😅. Do you still have the F150 ? Have a great July 4th weekend...Thanks for your contribution so we can be free ✨🇺🇸✨🎆✨. I was wondering if you have had a experience with F150 2015. V8 Nat. Aspiration engine. I recently had the ...Low Oil pressure light go on. And check engine light...gauge goes to normal when starting..Drops low after about 10 seconds...I'm thinking it's. Oil Pressure Sensor Switch...Or in need of oil change. Thought I'd ask you 🤗. I haven't driven it until I can change oil and the switch this week...

My daughter's 2002 Ford Ranger 4.0L V6 was showing a lean code. I used my neighbor's cocktail smoker to introduce smoke into the intake manifold. The vacuum leak was coming from the PCV hose nipple on the passenger side of the engine. I replaced the O-ring for $0.75 at NAPA. The smoke machines make it easy to find vacuum leaks and yes, you can use a cocktail smoker.

My 2013 tahoe got a lean code for passenger side bank cat. if it ran in v4 mode more than v8 , so I got the range finder to run in v8 mode at all times, no codes for 30k miles so far. Everyone told me To flush injectors and seal intake , Than someone said my cylinders were f’ed , they might be but now it runs good with no CEL now

There’s much easier ways to disable DOD. It costs a tuner 150 in credits to turn off dod and zero out allowed slip. I would not recommend just plugging the tower oil holes.

you can't really expect the factory to install quality parts on their engines, Something has to fail so you either spend a lot of $, on dealership repairs, or preferably buy a new vehicle with a different set of failure factory parts. There are a ton of failures for them to choose from.

Glad to hear you are working to delete the AFM on this one, the Achilles Heel of this otherwise good engine. It appears you still got a good deal despite the extra work needed to get it in better shape but that's how the market is going right now: better and cheaper to repair good quality used than buy new most times

The plastic only holds the siliconized seals that seal the intake runners . The Felpro gaskets i used on my ‘07 Silverado Long Block were also Plastic and silicone . The Key to success with these is Proper Torque values and sequence must be adhered to .
