    Direct message transfer to forum/thread

    Occasionally I get people asking me questions about tuning, electronics, or otherwise. Not typically something that needs to be private. Would be nice if there was a method, at least for moderators, to be able to move it to another thread like we can for normal threads Is this possible?

Girlfriends brothers wife's 2013 Ford Escape with, I'm not sure what version of Ecoboost engine is going into what feels like a limp mode. In the morning, the first few minutes it drives fine.

    Popped the heater core connector today

    About an hour and a half away from home on some back roads and I get the message on the dash of low coolant level. Then I start seeing the temperature go up. By the time I was at the bottom of the road where it was safe to pull over and check it, the temp gauge was just shy of the 260° mark...

    GM upfitter electrical manuals

    Seems like every so often GM changes the site and makes it harder to find the needed PDFs on the upfitter website. The ones we've downloaded over the years are typically too large to upload here and of course, since space is a premium and uploading 5+ Mb files every time one is needed will fill...

    Hurt my Jetta last night ?

    Taking a late night run to the post office. Was raining. Yellow street lights and a yellow curb/center divider that blended in with all the yellow reflections in the wet road. Didn't see it until I was too close to stop. Drifted just enough outside my lane to have the driver front front tire hit...

    Ford DPF no regenerating

    I know this is primarily a Duramax forum but some of you guys here also have experience with the Ford diesels. I don't know what year vehicle yet. Or any codes present. Still haven't seen the vehicle in person. I have a cousin with a Ford F250 that apparently is not regenerating the DPF and is...

    What makes a Ford engine tick

    If you can tolerate Gale Banks, here is an interesting breakdown of one of Ford's earlier in house built diesel engines Looks very complicated to me. Does seem to contain some interesting technology, even if it only gives it a modest boost in power Source: https://youtu.be/Nv76dymkYUI

    Finding my drag truck

    Some of you may remember from the other monthly thread that I am looking for an older Duramax truck for my play toy/DD that I'd like to use for some drag racing fun. I was hoping for an LLY so I could also use it as a test bed for FICM repairs. Or a federal / tier 1 LB7. I would prefer a GMC...
