tuned it. pushed it. replaced the charge pipe.

 

I hope you didn't have to push it very far. What kinda tune was that ??

 

Thought he was talking about a ford there for a minute..

 

Do you mean FORD spells Found ON Roadside Dead

 

Went out to Costco, picked up a new Kirkland battery.

Also put on a set of new StrongARM lift gate supports. The right side one failed out a week ago unfortunately.

Also, I blacked out my grille. Letting the clear coat cure in the garage overnight. Really cheap custom ($25 for the paint and a few bucks for a rubbing alcohol, etc to clean it) that I have put off for too long.

 

Q: Why do Ford's come with rear window defoggers as standard equipment?

A: To keep your hands warm while you push them.

 

I had a Ford once. F-150 supercab4x4, some one gave it to me, they bought it new didn't change oil for six years.Put new motor in it drove it six more years, no change oil. When I get it there is 1 quart in it, had to get some pliers to pull out the dip stick, it was like glued in there. Unbelivable engine noise, filled it up with a gallon of Lucas oil treatment. Ran like a champ worked the poop out of it for two years. It's final service was to get me 5000.00 down on my SS.

That poor old abused Ford served me fine, would take another one if you gave it to me.

OT..Drove one to Everrett and back, sat in the other one wishing it would quit raining..

 

1 qt of oil !!!! Amazing it ran..

Speaking of fords, I had a 1964 (Falcon) Ranchero, w/289, it did ok, frame eventually just got too bad for repair..

 

took it down ocean parkway at 120. cracked the stock charge pipe. its all good i really needed a new one anyway. I'm not too sure if this car is supposed to push 25lbs of boost though….?

 

it can if tuned. stg1 is usually a little lower, 20 to 23.
