[QUOTE="Sonicsunspot, post: 1593327, member: 38903"] Searched the forum but didn't find anything but references about this. I have read in a couple threads that when starting a Gen2: [LIST=1] [*]pushing the gas pedal to the floor & holding it [*]pressing the start button for 5-10 seconds [*]steps above force oil to the top of the engine [/LIST] First, I am curious if this IS true - where can I find some details on what is actually happening? Second, this seems like a really good thing to do, why didn't Ford simply design this into the overall startup of the truck? It doesn't seem like a few seconds to potentially extend the life of the engine is a bad thing. I am pretty sure most of us don't jump in like Starsky and Hutch and roar out of the driveway. Appreciate any info that can help me understand this more. [/QUOTE]
