  1. Plugs after one year

    I like to run my plugs around a light brown. your porcelain looks ok but outside of it looks too black. Send the wideband readings from a pull to your tuner and see what they think. Why do you think you need colder plugs?
  2. Plugs after one year

    looking at them I would not go to a colder plug....maybe a step hotter but I wouldn't go colder.
  3. Adaptive cruise stopped mid trip

    good to know, I'll look for that when I have a chance and I'm not in a snowstorm. I was only 15 miles from home so I didn't worry about it, if it was at the start of our 4 hour drive I would have dug into it a little deeper but between the cruise warning going off and the parking aid warning...
  4. Adaptive cruise stopped mid trip

    Friday it was 85 degrees and Sunday driving home it was 33-35 and rain/sleet/snowing out. The roads are plenty warm so nothing was sticking but the snow and ice was sticking to the front of the Bronco so the sensors got covered up as expected. I get the warning that the adaptive cruise can't...
  5. Adding Keyless Entry Keypad to 2024

    I just had it done on my 23 with no issues....I had bought the key pad before I noticed that you can't do this yourself like I always have in the past without Fords new software.....I just used my points and had the dealer spend the 5 minutes programming it...at least they drove out to my house...
  6. Genuine Ford Parts Sellers

    IMO, be careful buying online, the Honda parts are really tough. Look up who it actually is like the dealers posted above, buy from a dealer to make sure they aren't counterfeit parts. I see the dealer near me where I get my discount actually now advertises to sell the parts online at the same...
  7. Attention: Ford Annual Price Increase on ESPs (Extended Service Plans)! Get yours @GrangerFord before prices go up April 1st!

    I keep looking a these and I just can't make it make financial sense for myself. If I had bought a warranty for the Fords I have bought new in the last 20 years (which isn't many as I keep mine quite a while) which is 4 (between the wife and I) vehicles and the warranty I am looking at is...
  8. tow/haul mode

    Well that sucks...my XLT Explorer had it in 15 I thought this would have had it since it came with a tow package....I'll try sport mode next time I tow anything with it....thanks for the replys.
  9. tow/haul mode

    my Explorers limit was 3500 also and it was very useful....I towed about 1000-1200 lbs. with the Bronco once already and could tell it needed it.
  10. tow/haul mode

    My Bronco came with the tow package but I don't see a tow/haul mode button/switch. both my F150 and Explorer had this and it is nice how it changes the shift points to keep the rpm up when towing and not lug the motor and tans so much. I have searched and can't find it or even much in the...
  11. FDRS SYNC Update - 6GB Successful

    Is there anyway to get FDRS without the big license fees? Like a trial or anything? Otherwise it just seems cost prohibitive to get it for the backyard mechanic.
  12. Anyone else heading to Vegas Off-Rodeo?

    I was thinking of doing this one, how does it compare to Moab? I will also wait for it to warm up a bit more. I took my Bronco out on the lake last night to mess around a bit, turned traction control off but I guess stability or something else is still on, I had 2 different lights flashing at...
  13. Cracked oil pan

    Oil change tech makes a mistake and damages something....I want a new vehicle???? Sadly there are a lot of people like you out there who just fold when they get the run around and want to avoid confrontation.....this is why businesses do this, they hope you fold and just go away. Push back on...
  14. First time towing experience

    Friday night we emptied out the firewood trailer and I still had the truck hooked to the big trailer so I thought I would just use the OB to take the trailer down to the farm to drop it off and grab the snowmobile. First off the spare hangs low so I need to open the back up to get it hooked up...
  15. Gasoline octane & MPG

    Stock tune on ours and it seems to like 89 octane the best, no idea why. I saw a pretty good jump in mpg going from 87 to 89, a lot more than I expected but I didn't perform the study over enough miles to say for sure. I ran a couple tanks non-oxy 91 and it picked up a little over 89 but not...
