We ran only Fram (PH-8A) on our 1971 Ford LTD until the 1990s when we sold the car with 230K miles on it, and it had just started a light main crank bearing knock.
I am stock turbo FBO (engine wise) FiST, switched from Powerstop Trac Day Spec to Hawk DTC-60 with good results.
The OEM Ford belt I replaced in a 1992 Escort looked better than that when I did it a year ago. Quality matters.
I replaced the original belt on a 1997 ranger 2.3 last month it looked about the same and had 126,000 miles
I drive a ford cmax energi (4500lbs). I first went to the AS05 when I got sticker shock for replacing the low resistence michelins it came with. Been through 2 1/2 sets in 100kmiles. They have been consistent and even wearing. Just replaced 2 with the AS07. They are quiter yet the tread seems much more aggressive. Might just be because I was down to racing slicks. Actually looking forward to snow driving in a few months. Just have to turn off the traction control.
I had installed a 4bbl. carb, intake manifold and a set of shorty headers.
I run the Continental DWS06+ on my Mustang and have been very happy with them. They're not quite as sharp as the Michelin Pilot AS3 that they replaced, but that's ok for my daily driver. Adding 2 psi over the factory recommended pressures helped firm up the steering response and ride enough to keep me happy.
A bearing went in our original alternator so I replaced it with a Valeo brand and it's pretty loud when it clicks on. It is loud enough that I'm wondering if I got a bad alternator --or is this normal??
It's the typical whirl or whurr noise --it's silent, and then you can hear the whirl or whurr noise when the alternator clicks on. It seems mechanically and electrically fine: It's doing what it should be doing electrically (charging, correct voltage, the battery is happy, the car runs better with this new alternator, etc.). It's just loud.
Replaced it with OEM ford windshield and was done in a few hours. Got a chip on the way to snow and by the first night it started cracking across middle of vision. Windshield was exact OEM match. Even had the 75 yr sticker lol.
Burnt out 4 motorcraft Starter Solenoids on my fox body in like a week.
