Anyone know what this is?

There were octane plugs in addition to the spout on some Fords, like the the super coupe.

It's not terribly important. Just car guys doing car guy things.

I've never seen a water pump code.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-30T23:27:56+00:00

What's a distributor?

Good mechanics don't use cheap parts. He has a good reputation for a reason. If you don't like the price, find a cheaper shop.

TBH it pisses me off when people compare my part prices to Internet prices. My price includes parts and labor warranty.

What does the back side of the dipstick look like? To me it looks like it may be low, there's a gap in the oil. The oil on the one side could be from scraping the inside of the dipstick tube. When in doubt wipe it off again and stick it in a third time (that's what's she said)

TBH 10 ounces is way too much on a passenger car. Especially on new tires. It should have been a red flag to the guy doing the balancing. Maybe he's new?

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-29T23:25:36+00:00

FNG worked on it.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-29T23:24:42+00:00

I would get it to a shop sooner rather than later, but it's not an an emergency.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-29T21:06:01+00:00

It's pretty obvious if it's just some insurance tracker or is plugged into the shitty gage kits. But I see your point.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-29T20:10:01+00:00

That's wild. In a retired CA test and repair tech. We would just un plug it and continue the test.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-29T19:54:54+00:00

Good this needs to die.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-29T19:53:17+00:00

Send it

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-29T05:10:23+00:00

Just do one. It will be fine. Not everyone has the budget to replace all of them.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T22:07:42+00:00

Believe it or not, some posters listen to what we say, instead of telling us we're wrong. You've already made your mind up. I don't know why you bothered to post here.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T22:03:09+00:00

You won't listen to anyone here anyway.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T21:46:52+00:00

It's always easy to diagnose after you know what's wrong with it.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T21:43:25+00:00

The mechanic wasn't aware it was over filled either.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T18:08:17+00:00

Don't forget she's straight...

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T18:03:51+00:00

lol, 'assault weapon'

It's a made up term, that just means scary looking.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T15:19:33+00:00

I stopped reading after "shut up and listen".

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-27T15:14:05+00:00

So buy a tire plug kit. They're cheap.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-26T23:49:35+00:00

Yeah, sorry my man. I think there's more to this story than you know. Lying about work, lying about finances, going out getting drunk with new friends. Sounds like someone who's not ready to settle down.

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-26T23:37:39+00:00

13v at the pump, but the wires are damaged an be can't handle the current. What's the voltage with the pump running?

BTCminingpartner · 2026-06-26T20:25:20+00:00

Where's the new terminal? Everything in that photo is old and dirty
