  1. Think I found my turbo underboost issue!

    If I were getting on the throttle to get up to highway speed, I’d see around 9psi. I’d see 3-4psi if I was passing someone. Eventually during a drive the accelerator pedal would get “soft” and a little laggy and then it would never go above 0.5-1psi. I assume the ECU just opened the wastegates...
  2. Think I found my turbo underboost issue!

    I’ve been getting a persistent underboost error code (P0299) but am currently working on dropping the trans to rebuild it. To drop the trans I need to remove the exhaust and I noticed this lovely situation pictured as soon as I removed the fender liner to get at the bolts above the cat. The...
  3. 5 years later, still my First Edition

    Glad it’s been a fun ride! I’m still in my First Edition, but it’s been a nightmare. I’ve had turbo underboost issues. It’s currently up on blocks because I got a “Shift Solenoid E off” error and I found the teeth of a clutch pack in the transmission pan when I dropped it. The trans oil was...
  4. MIC 2.0 Leak

    I have a 4-door FE with MIC 2.0 and this week after a hard rain I got in and had a load of water pour onto my shoulder when I closed the driver's side door. It leaked right at the "T" joint of the front and middle panels. It seems like the seal was holding all night but then closing the door...
  5. Michigan Bronco Club

    That's fantastic! My kids have been even more thrilled than me. My son gets a ride to middle school from a buddy, and he wanted to wait for him in the Bronco today. I can't keep them out of it.
  6. Michigan Bronco Club

    Best. Monday. Ever. After a 07/13/2020 reservation at 8:08pm, she's finally in my driveway. The weather was perfect yesterday and the top came right off as soon as we got home. I really freaking love this thing and it has been a blast for all 50 miles that I've driven it so far. I know it's easy...

Recently I got my roof replacement email that said I was scheduled to have e my roof replaced some time in the...
  14. 🦖 Bronco Raptor Officially Confirmed and Teased by Ford!

    I have a friend at Ford and was told that it won't be any more restricted than the F-150 Raptors. The Bronco Raptor will be easier to get a hold of than the First Editions.
  15. I’ve only seen one….

    Living so close to Detroit, I've seen dozens. There are a ton of Ford engineers in my neighborhood and they drive prototypes home, and I've seen a lot of them out and about on the roads. My son is best friends with a kid whose dad is the lead engineer on the Warthog, but sadly I haven't seen...
