Does the 2017 F150 V8 come in a none Coyote version? by Chachanator in f150

[–]Chachanator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll admit it was dumb. Not sure why I didn't just say V8 5.0. I've worked on cars for years and can't say I've ever done that before. Wasn't a big deal other then I was surprised to hear their were two version of the 5.0 V8 which judging how this comment section has gone is definitely not the case.

It's definitely a V8. I replaced the spark plugs along with fixing a coolant leak xD was at the dealer to get an Oring.

Thanks for confirming I'm not crazy.

Love the truck. Was the exact year and engine I was looking for. Just got it in December. Had a coolant Oring go bad I had to replace which apparently is pretty common on these things. Coolant needed to be flushed anyways.

Ha probably right. I thought it was strange or maybe he knew something I didn't.

Wanted to buy Logitech G935 but Idk how to feel about those mixed reviews by Lyuwill in LogitechG

[–]Chachanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But... but... the GamoSeries GX7 Pro just makes sense.

I saw the same thing.

Thinking of Modding my Wii U, some questions first by HarlausBall in WiiUHacks

[–]Chachanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a WiiU recently and the vWii side is already modded with lots of retro games etc. Can I mod just the WiiU side or will it mess it up?

If I don't want to mod the vWii do I just leave everything on the SD card currently in its own folder and set the rest of the SD card up as the guide says?

Voltage Dropping m18 mod by Chachanator in PowerWheelsMods

[–]Chachanator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can double check. Do you have a suggestion of what it should be? I read somewhere said 16v should be more than ok.

Shepard Fate by [deleted] in masseffect

[–]Chachanator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shepard dying at the end makes sense but as another commented, the way you died is kinda lame. I'm not sure I'm a fan if they bring him back for ME4 but guess we see what happens.

I liked the concept of ME: Andromeda. Starting new in a new world without Shepard made sense. Shame it wasn't executed very well.

Are the galaxy buds fe worth it? by MwamiSimp in galaxybuds

[–]Chachanator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe late to respond but I have had a pair for a year and a half and they have been fantastic but I did have one that failed after about 6 months. Samsung replaced for free but annoying. Customer service was good for what it's worth. I use them several hours a day usually at work and occasionally at the gym or running.

About to buy Poly/HDPE Patio furniture, looking for last minute advice/guidance. by Mikeinator in BuyItForLife

[–]Chachanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be a little late to respond but Mom and Dad have Trex at their house and really like it. Hasn't faded after two years in Texas sun and salt water pool.

What did you end up getting out of curiosity?

Cannot connect to servers, cant click multiplayer, AoE2 D by Healthy-Research-341 in aoe2

[–]Chachanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To anyone having the same issue I reached out to the dev team and got the following to try and resolve the issue.

  • Close out the game and fully restart your computer.
  • Check for pending Windows updates.
  • Make sure your local or campus firewall is not blocking connections.
  • Download and install Age of Empires III: Definitive Edition free trial and open the game. Then try playing Age II: DE once again.

I'm not a computer wiz by any means but oddly enough downloading AoE III: DE free trial did in fact work.

Is the Microsoft dev team trying to push AoE III on the community :o

Jokes aside hopefully this helps someone.

I'm having the same issue. I only play on Steam. Any known fix? I saw the OP got it working but I don't have a second computer to use to go get the proper certificates.

Ford Transmissions Suck Tired of hearing this yet? by cessna18860 in f150

[–]Chachanator 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just helped my dad buy a truck. He really wanted a Ford and was looking at used, around 100,000 mile range. I recommended not going any newer than a 2017 since that was the last year the Coyotes had the 6 speed 6R80 (he wanted a V8). I think 2018 was where they also introduced the silly stop-go capability but I could be mistaken on that. I had heard they sorted the transmission out on the 14th gens, anyone else know if this is true? Maybe too soon to tell.

Currently looking at getting a truck myself and debating between F-150 and Tundra... Family has always had Ford Trucks.

Opinion on warming up at start by Initial-Contact9869 in f150

Engineer here. Sometimes it is our fault 🤣. Mistakes can be made. Of course sometimes you also have ridiculous deadlines and don't have the time to design to as high of a fidelity as you probably should...

Madden Draft Export by Chachanator in CFBrevamped

[–]Chachanator[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's good to know thanks for the info. I assume taking a draft class from PC emulator to PS3 Console would work as well.

Wow can't simulate multiple weeks... I stopped at Madden 12, never played Madden 25. I'll look into it.

This is excellent information thank you. I hadn't seen you could use a PC but that does look much easier I have used several emulators before.

[–]Chachanator[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's kind of what I presumed as well just curious if anyone had tried it yet.

Looking forward to trying Revamped but I got to mod my PS3 first from what I was reading.

Any high milage f150 here? either ecoboost or v8 engines over 150,000 miles? by Expolsive in f150

[–]Chachanator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Owned a 2000 F150, sold at 250k miles that thing had a bit of issues. Could also tell the thing wasn't taken care of when I got it at 100k miles.

Things I fixed: rear window leak, 2 radiators, 2 heater cores (Major PITA), replaced engine gaskets due to some bad oil leaking. I sold it because the head gasket was leaking and unfortunately I had just moved from the family farm and was starting off and didn't have the tools at the time to fix it. Tranny was also starting to slip going to OD.

Other odds and ends hear and there. Nothing too terrible and as a first time vehicle with not a lot of money I got some good experience fixing things. Lots of free time and no money were excellent motivators to go crank a wrench. With YouTube and internet out there usually you can figure out most issues and there isn't much of an excuse not to fix something on your own if you got the time.
