True. I have one on every car I own, and I’m never considering another brand.
That narrows it down to that specific PCV side. If crankcase pressure was high your front valve cover would never be dry. I’ll bet it’s the catch can. Because even if the baffling of the cover failed somehow that shouldn’t matter if you have a catch can.
Ya know I cleaned the can while trying to resolve this and I could've sworn there was some kind of media in the baffle. Figured that'd be dumb and moved on. I'll try reinstalling the factory hose straight from pcv valve to intake and see if keeps huffing oil. Planned on returning it to stock for its tour of dealers next week so if that solves the issue it's a win win lol
Nice! 4.6L? Just make sure the timing chain guides aren't nuked. Going from my SHO to the Merc has been a complete handful. However, stepping back in time with the truck really makes me appreciate the simplicity of older vehicles.
4.6, so quiet I can't hear it running over the ac blower motor. Still going to do the timing chains around 150k just to stay on top of it all. I was thrilled to do my first brake stand in years. She was a one wheeler but broke both after I started rolling lol
The older I get, the simpler things make me happy.
Amen, I was about to put a touch screen in it, but my wife talked me out of it "you wanted simplicity so embrace the simplicity" so for now thats what im gonna do. back up cam is going in the mirror, my parking garage at work is too tight to not have one, but im living in 08 otherwise lol
I embrace touch screen aftermarket radios. It is really nice having that type of new tech in the truck.
I'll get there, but taking a break from all the screens will be nice. I already bought a kenwood for it lol
You should go all out and get a vintage pioneer with the flip face and dolphin display.
My brother has that one in the "Premier" line up, big car audio guy back in the day but since he still uses it 25 years later I don't think he'll part with it. Couple fosgate 12s in the back with pioneer mids and head unit, over shot 2008 by about 4 years but those were better times lol.
Hopefully you did alright on her. As they say, someone else’s problem now.
I was stuck on black on black until I found this one and the "stone" interior, kinda tan, kinda gray, kinda brown, but the seats are gray.
You might be on to something there. Prior to my first SHO I bought a 2013 MKS in gem green. Lasted about two months till the dealer bought it back. The trunk leaked and after them twice not figuring out why they gave up and took it back.
