The Pirellis are a tremendous improvement on dry pavement. I tried flooring it from a stop, and no wheel spin. Amazing difference. I haven't driven them in rain yet. I will say that they tramrail a bit.
Reviews of spare parts for Ford
For the the rear right now I put on rancho rs5000x as they were less tha half price of the eibach. The rancho was ALOT more plush with the aal than Bilstein.
Rotella t6 5w40 all day every day. Run it in my focus st. I noticed less oil consumption, cleaner plugs and less soot just after the second change
I am running one of these from a crown victoria. The inspiration came from the fact that I have seen multiple crown victoria engine swaps to mustang newedges and even though people need to swap important and critical parts such as the oil pan, oil pickup tube, oil filter adapter, people tend to leave the idle air control in there from the crown vic and everything seems to work fine. The only difference I noticed was the the connector is oriented a different angle.
My car works fine as well.
I have used nothing but Mobil 1 FS for 20 years on all my cars and family vehicles. I’ve never had a reason to switch.
Used this in my last st till I sold it… had 235,000kms on it and still ran like a champ.
Go with an OEM unit by Motorcraft even if it's more expensive. Not somethin you want to do twice, learned this lesson with my Explorer. Threw on an aftermarket unit and it doesn't communicate with Ford's smart charging system correctly so it doesn't provide correct voltages as needed, therefore throwing a charging system warning constantly.
Awful design by Ford to put the water pump inside the engine. I almost bought one of these used a few years ago, but backed out after reading about 3-4k jobs to replace a water pump at 180-100k miles.
Pretty sure this is the motor that needs the engine dropped to do waterpump and timing components. Bad bad design
I had an account that had a fleet of these and they got tired of doing the water pumps and I was using oem motorcraft pumps and they wouldnt last, but they never turned these vehicles off.
