The breakfast pizza was a steal for $8. It was worth that price all day outside of the airport.

Neal & Adrian at it again

 

 

Hey we took Rigging 101 and 102

Holy shit, Sean wasn't kidding. IPads everywhere in MN. super efficient and has charging ports.

 

Maybe you can do a little digging because word is Sean has two for every room in his house.

 

 

Any good coffee in MN airport?

If they have a dun brothers go there.

Ended up at World Bean. Sitting at Vero right now about to eat breakfast pizza.

 

What is breakfast pizza?

Pizza that I ate before 1030 that they put 2 over easy eggs on? Lol it didn't have much sauce, but had bacon, cheese and some other goodies.

Two of the same, no?

Fuck all you Ford lovers. This is how my day started...

 

 

I hate a 5.4.

I thank god I never had a problem.

Loved the 5.4 when the rest of the truck was working.

I miss old Gertrude.

What did you end up getting as a replacement Matt?

So another snow storm is on the way.  YAY.

Yes those plugs sucked! When I did my FIL's he got a one piece plug. Took almost 4 damn hours too.

Keep that shit your way. I have had my fill.

You ever have one of those feelings that someone is calling your name and you realize it is coming from your answering machine...

My gram might do stuff like that sometimes.

This truck was an immaculate 2008 F150 with 75K. The owner wanted a tune up, it wasn't due, nor needed based on drivability issues. I forewarned him of what could happen, and even did Ford's recommended soak overnight. 3 came apart. If you look at one of the plugs you will see that the threads tore right off the plug. When I removed the socket the metal came out, while the porcelain and side electrode portion stayed in the hole. I have seen plugs blow out of a vehicle like that, but I have never seen, nor heard of the porcelain remaining in the hole while the threaded portion came out.

 

Of course #4 and #8 broke. They are the 2 rear plugs. The other was, fortunately #1 and very easy to access. I had the Rotunda (Ford factory) removal tool before, but it was worn out. I bought the Lisle equivalent last year. This was my first time using it, and IMO it worked better than the Ford tool. It is a very low profile set up, so it fit into the rear holes relatively easy.

What did you end up getting as a replacement Matt?

Waiting on a check from the bank. Then I buy the wife a car.

It will maybe be the hardest purchase I have ever made in my life.

Fortunately I have all the right tools. The plug socket is very specific, but I have also invested in an extremely low profile 9/32 6 point 1/4 drive universal swivel socket just for removing the coils. I can run through a tune on a modular Ford in ~ an hour (pays 3 to 4). Even with having to extract 3 plugs I got this done in 3 hours. I get 3 hours for the main tune, 1 hour for the soak (if the customer chooses) and an hour per plug extraction. So I got 7 hours out of it, and had it done before lunch.

Seth what can you tell me about Fords ecoboost F150. My FIL has a new 2014 and I want him to use amsoil in it, what are your thoughts?

Reason I am asking is turbo motors will run a little warmer and most oils have a lower volatility rating.

He has been told to use a lucas oil stabilizer when changing his oil.
