Watch this vid. Could be of use.

Very interesting, thanks! Growing up when all of these additives were starting to show up I remember hearing don't get fuel with that crap in it, all those additives are horrible! I'll have to pay attention next time I get fuel to see what it says, I want my engine to stay happy! Unfortunately if it's something that sits the additives aren't helpful here in the frozen north because they gel up and cause problems (think generator, snow blower, lawn mower, vintage auto that you'll get the death eye if you let it see snow, etc.) The usual, some things are good in some ways and not in others. Thanks for the video!

Oh and on a side note I figured out how to get my MPG to display (accidently lol) the other day and saw it go up to 24!!!! Today driving around on back roads it was at 22, which I'm quite pleased with. I'm sure when I floor it it sucks down to like 16 :ROFLMAO: but hey, I'm a happy camper seeing that! (For reference, no highways yet - unless you count our main road which is technically a "highway" - twisting two lane with speeds varying between 30-50 limits) Good with me, I hate busy multi lane roads!!!

HELLO FAM!!!!!
Been busy gathering ad ons. Got my diode dynamics gear in, and my IAG para hex grill. Just don’t have the time to get them on. For a retired guy I’m busy as hell with work. Hope you are all safe and sound.

Wife and I attended Bronco Off-Rodeo @ Horseshoe Bay in Texas this weekend. Incredible first class experience. First off-roading course we have attended. Learned a ton. Feel much more confident operating our Bronco. Highly recommend!

Going on the 5th week without my truck now. New seals installed on the entire roof, and apparently some drainage valve was never installed from the factory. Up next for the phasers.

……for no one in the 7/24 fam to be visited by the issue gremlins (cam phasers, roof leaks etc) and for those that have, that their dealers DO THE RIGHT THING!

Keep forgetting to ask, maybe I should put this in the whole forum as a new question but I’ll start with the fam - anyone else have issues with thier wipers seeming crappy? I tried to look it up and it seemed like others only complained about intermittent wiping. I’m talking about the effectiveness of the wipers themselves - mine seem to wipe good on the way up but put everything back on the way down making it hard to see. I hate to ditch new wipers but if they don’t work….🤷‍♀️ My mom suggested maybe my windshield was just dirty/had a film from waxing but I’ve washed it and it still seems to have issues. Especially annoying the other day when we had a bunch of snow, then it decided to start dumping rain 🤨
Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving!

Mine have been fine. My mom’s ’23 Explorer came with trashed wipers from the factory. I think they might accidentally get left on during shipment and are wiping a dry windshield.
