    Endgame setup- BW s257sxe

    It did not come with multiple springs in the kit. I bought it brand new through Damond when I picked up the PI adapter kit/rail from them. Sent from tapioca

    Endgame setup- BW s257sxe

    Short little update. I was still battling the intermittent banshee idle, even after going through 3 warranty claims for replacement CS throttle bodies. I started thinking it was something else and sprayed carb cleaner around the engine bay. I ended up not finding any vacuum leaks and finally...

    Machine shop in Socal

    ARCE balanced my whole rotating assembly. I assume they did a good job. Although, when I picked up everything, it looked like hadn't even taken anything out of their box. Manley rods were brand new and so was the Ecoboost crank. The pistons I reused. So I don't know lol

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    I talked with the lead electrical engineer here at my work. He does all the heavy work on all our power circuit boards. He recalled a time when he repaired fuel level sensors in the avionics industry and suggested completely coating the wires direct to the board with 3M scotchweld 2216. We use...

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    So i have been doing research on the mercury fuel level sensor, and it shares the same part number (AE5Z-9A299-H) with the following vehicles. Some are flex fuel compatible. I am assuming these specific level sensors should be able to take full e85. From Tasca: 2012 Ford Fusion SEL 3.0L V6 -...

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    I just noticed the guide pins are not exactly 180 apart from each other like gen 2 baskets. no go. abort

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    I found the 2012 Lincoln MKZ sending unit and it appears to be almost identical to how the stock sensor mounts to the basket. But this was just a suggestion from littleloogy. https://www.myautovaluestore.com/motorcraft/ae5z9a299e-mop-ps435 @Easter Bunny heres a photo of the suggested PS603...

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    It looks like flex fuel was available on certain focus models. Not the ST. Now i'm wondering if i can swap my top hat over to a focus basket.

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    There was mention of a sensor from a 2012 Lincoln MKZ that could be used. I haven't gone down that route yet.

    $630 bones! That's crazy. I'll stick with my $8 battery tender haha

    51R Batteries and CCA's

    i have a 4" intake so smaller battery is a must. Unless i relocate to trunk, but lazy.

    51R Batteries and CCA's

    I have had a 51R for more than 5 years now. I have had to frequently change them out though. I can't leave my car without a tender for more than 2 days or the battery is completely dead. Then again, I suspect my android head unit has a pretty bad draw to retain memory and settings. For now, i...

    If it lasts more than 2 weeks, we're getting somewhere lol

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    I ended up cutting the terminals off and soldering the wires directly to the board. I went ahead and insulated them with the ez turn stuff. Crossing my fingers here for us gen pu guys. The 1st replacement board I pulled out failed in a similar mode. Purely from the positive terminal. Sent from...

    Effects of high eth content on fuel level sensor

    So far it's been impossible to get a hold of a gen 1 sensor as they're obsolete now. For now I removed the positive terminal and soldered it completely with high lead content solder. I think I'll add a dab of the EZ TURN stuff on the contact pad and a glob over the terminal itself as well...

    Endgame setup- BW s257sxe

    Swapped out that AEM piece of junk. This fuel lab regulator allowed adjustment above 40psi (even though that's where I set it) with no vacuum. It's a beefier nicer piece for sure. The locking nut is a 14mm and the adjustment screw is 2x bigger. Sent from tapioca
