    GEN 2 FU Ford. The Raptor will be my last

    Don’t buy GM! I had 2 - 2016’s, a 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton, the electronics are junk on both of them. “There are 40 computers on the trucks and all of them are designed to fail in 4 years. You won’t be able to afford to replace them, you will have to buy another new truck.“ (that statement came...

    Wrecked Raptors

    Yeah, I was holding the tears back when I was watching Lanor burn. I like the wire idea, I will start doing that. if I would have known that they used those hose clamps on my fuel lines I would have made the Ford tech change them out. lesson learned, whenever you let somebody else work on your...

    Wrecked Raptors

    I had 9000 miles on a new motor that the local Ford dealer installed. I’m not sure what was there for the first 100,124 miles, but I’m pretty sure Roush didn’t use that style of hose clamp when they modified the truck. I don’t know how the Ford Tech got back there to put the hose clamps...

    Wrecked Raptors

    I figured out what caused my truck to go up in flames... the fuel line blew apart and pumped gas all over the engine and into the insulation on the firewall. (In the picture you can see the hose clamp melted into the valve cover) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Battery dead every morning

    My 2011 did something similar except all my interior lights would come on randomly day and night killing the battery. On the side of the gearshift there is solenoid that tells the truck that it is in park and it went bad. Ford replaced the whole shifter and didn’t have any more issues. Sent...

    Wrecked Raptors

    I’m not real sure, shortly after I left the gas station something made an extremely loud pop noise under Lanore like a hose blowing, and she started bucking and acting like the transmission broke. I coasted down down the hill to the first intersection and pulled up by the building. That is when...

    Need help with lean codes

    A short update, After a new intake and gaskets, new throttle body and 2 Ford dealers, my truck is still throwing lean codes and surges just as bad as it did. After wasting 4 hours of my time the 2nd Ford dealer said they couldn't flash my ecm on my truck and couldn't help me. I think the...

    Need help with lean codes

    Well, I just got my truck back from Ford, they think it might be the intake gasket..Ford said they couldn't get to it till later next week. If it is the intake gasket wouldn't it make one bank or the other max out on long fuel trim?

    Need help with lean codes

    I had it in to one of the better mechanics near where I live and he couldn't figure out what is causing the lean codes either. He said the fuel pressure was good and the long term codes are pretty much maxed out. Except when you give it some throttle then it richens up some and the short term...

    Need help with lean codes

    I went for a drive this morning and counted about 3 to 5 seconds between the sputters, and about 20 minutes before the check engine light comes on again with the lean codes.

    Need help with lean codes

I have replaced all the 02 sensors, MAF, plugs, wires and put a jlt catch can on.(hoping the old hose might be the vacuum leak) I have blown smoke in the intake and didn't find any leaks. I'm...

    Ford your service in the Middle East sucks! New truck fault!

    He is absolutely correct about the Ford dealers in the middle east! Horrible! It has taken them 3 days to change the oil in our company vehicles before! The front struts were leaking in my company Explorer ( had less than 3,000 miles on it) and after the dealer pre-ordered the struts they...

    What Programmer / Tune / Tuner??

    Rangerbj- What is a lot better? I only get almost 11 on a good day! Not to mention the throttle response is awful too. I've been debating on a tuner or just selling it.

    How to turn off ABS and traction control?

    Pulling fuses #36 and #47 will disable the ABS and traction control, but your dash will light up like a Christmas tree!

    Is there a way to reverse the anti spin button?

    LOL...Sweet, I should have known that a fellow law enforcement person that would come up with a good idea to disengage the tc! And when it gets icy I could put the fuses back in! I like it. Does that idea work for the ABS too?

    Is there a way to reverse the anti spin button?

    Ford made the traction control off button for people who made it through Drives Education 1 in high school and have went on to expanded on their driving abilities with more education. Thank you silentshooter, I hadn't thought of using a tuner to do that.

    Is there a way to reverse the anti spin button?

    I can't think of the initials for the anti spin button, but I would love to know if there is a way to make it so that I have to push the button to turn the anti spin on instead of turning it off. So that it is off all the time except for when I want it on in bad weather.
