    GEN 1 Premature spark plug failure

    how about tune? Advancing timing causes heat issues, and do I have to say one of which is detonation.

    110v outlet

    Small problem with the thought for charging those two 75 AH deep cycle batteries. You would have to let your truck run the whole charge cycle. Sorry for the bad news but trying to charge two deep cycle batteries off your one non deep cycle battery just won't work. It is like trying to hook...

    GEN 1 Premature spark plug failure

    Interesting I have never seen that kind of failure in a spark plug. I have a 2005 5.4 f150 and have went thru 2 spark plug changes on that vehicle. What kind of plugs are those? On second hand I took a closer look at those plugs, OEM? Unusual the electrode would fail that way. Almost looks...

    Looking to buy used raptor

    Find out when or if shocks have been rebuilt, check 4WD and listen for popping-snapping, IWES are a weak spot, look under driver door for damage to wire harness at that location; common mods are tune of some kind, exhaust "preferably stainless steel", CAI, if you plan on off roading and putting...

    Tuning advice for a beginner

    Search the appropriate forum sections. Exhaust, engine performance, et. al. for the mods you are considering. Yes there will be lots of reading but you are not the first and what you learn will be worth the time and your hard earned $$$

    Back up Camera Issues

    Interesting you mention that the picture is reversed. As what should be left is right and vice versa. That is an indication the processor is not handling the signal correctly. In a purely analog system," think old CRT tube tv's" signals are processed from top to bottom left to right. A gun...

    Back up Camera Issues

    I would look for damage in the wiring harness from previous 4 wheeling. Common spot is drivers side by front door. Hangs low at that spot. Sounds like poor signal and the processor is having trouble with it. Explains the poor picture and blanking you are seeing.

    Back up Camera Issues

    Define flashing, picture then no picture, until image degrades. Or picture then white screen/black screen? FYI I am unsure of this trucks system but there are basically two types of imagining systems. Analog and digital. I suspect the systems in these trucks is analog and not the best...

    Pedal Commander???

    Jabron the PC does two things. It provides multiple slope and intercept changes to throttle response. If you are not technically inclined, the the romper room version is mush pedal further. It also eliminates delay that the ECU implemented to make driving safer for your everyday John or Jane...

    Best Raptor Compliments

    My fav is the stare. Sometimes followed by a compliment but its always the same envious look. You know they are thinking that lucky SOB.

    What is the most ridiculous (in a bad way) mod you have seen on a raptor?

    IDK but that looks like a F150. it making me sick looking at it.

    Thinking about trading in your old for new?

    I have to wonder how much more that powertrain platform can be pushed. Has ford engineered it close to its max? Bigger turbos and what else breaks? Versus the 6.2 which in my opinion has a fair bit left in it if one cares to put the money in it.

    I hate jacklegs. For god sake it would have taken the same amount of time and cost less to have done it right the first time.

    100 K and still going strong. First owner had issue with brakes from a lack of care. They would not move fully and it screwed the rotors and calipers up. He had them all replaced and promptly sold it to me. Had minor issue with fan controller failure. Nothing major and still loving it.

    Prayers for 2017 SnoBall CoDriver's Son

    Very good news indeed. A positive attitude makes a big difference in recovery. It sounds like the young man can meet adversity very well. He should have a full and successful life.
