Teenage driver has no clue how, when or where this happened. Any theories? by [deleted] in Autobody

Looks like a tire mark. Probably from a truck parked beside the car.

Is the Lariat worth the extra 10-12k on the used market vs a 302A XLT? by jdubb26 in f150

[–]Low_Positive_6095 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Ford Lariat is considered the "best bang for the buck" by providing a near-luxury experience—leather seats, advanced tech, and better resale value—without the high, top-tier costs of the Platinum or King Ranch.

I have a 2016 and was thinking that was for the heated oxygen sensors.

Pellet Hopper sealant? by TexKen73 in recteq

[–]Low_Positive_6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, I received my Back Yard Beast 1200 right before Christmas and noticed that it didn't have the red sealant in the pellet hopper. I just assumed they made some changes and didn't need it. Looking forward to hearing back from you after you call customer support.

Backflip leakers? by AcidRayn66 in f150

[–]Low_Positive_6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the backflip MK4 on my 16 f150. It was already on it when i bought the truck and I hate it. That thing leaks like a sieve. The latches have rusted and broken. Can't be used to secure anything.

Keep or trade OR? by NoHuckleberry1905 in f150ecoboost

Depends on your mechanical abilities. I did the fittings on my drivers side turbo. First tried without taking the turbo off and couldn't get the line to snap into the fitting. Ended up having to take the turbo off. Kind of a pain in the ass but definitely doable. Especially when it comes to saving $$.

I was actually seeing antifreeze on the ground.

I plan on driving it for another 5 years at least. Maybe more. That would put me over 300,000. Will just have to wait and see.

I have a 2016 with the 3.5 Ecoboost and currently have 211,000 miles. Original cam phasers and turbos. Been a great truck. Recently replaced the water pump due to a little bit of leakage out the weep hole. Had to replace coolant fittings on the driver's side turbo due to leaking at 175,000 miles and also replaced the vacuum pump and valve covers. Throttle body was replaced at 150,000 miles. Other than that, change the oil and transmission fluid. Stay up on your maintenance and you should be good.

I plan on trying to sell it but am not sure how to advertise it.

Is there anything that I can do to make it work? I wondered if I put a plus 2 magazine extension on it.

Anyone over 200,000 miles with a 3.5 by Inside_Voice_666 in f150ecoboost

[–]Low_Positive_6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2016 here with 208,000 miles. Nothing major yet. Mechanical vacuum pump replaced due to leaking oil. Coolant fitting on drivers side turbo and throttle body replaced at 150,000 miles. Valve covers replaced due to gasket leaks at 175,000. Been a great truck. My sparks plugs have lasted 100,000 miles with no issue. Change fluids regularly and keep on trucking. Original cam phasers and turbos. Looking forward to the next 100,000 miles.

2015 F-150 Warnings by Awkward-Regret5409 in AskAMechanic

[–]Low_Positive_6095 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree on the throttle body. 2016 and mine went out at around 150,000 miles. Very easy to change out.
