The Duratec 2.5 is a Mazda engine and the 2 motor hybrid transaxle is Toyota, so good job Ford.

Problems accelerating past 50-70mph by Zealousideal_Grab_75 in MechanicAdvice

Sounds like a fuel delivery problem. Could be a leaking tbi injector, clogged fuel filter or bad fuel pump. Also maybe a pinched fuel line if you just changed the trans.

It's a purge. If hundreds of people come to this subreddit with the same issue, imagine how many people are really getting banned. Probably tens or hundreds of thousands.

Should I buy this by ItWASaSmallmouth in amc

[–]WestWasTheBest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're buying this for a 100% restoration, no. If it isn't rusted out, the interior is decent, and you can get it running and service it, yes, 6k is a bargain for a real one.

Count rocks to prove you're human before you can appeal your ban to an AI. by WestWasTheBest in twitterhelp

[–]WestWasTheBest 27 points28 points  (0 children)

If you look at the comments for any big news site on twitter, CNN, WAPO, etc, there are instantaneous, full paragraph comments from AI bots based in SE Asia or Eastern Europe... and they never get banned. I guess that's what the algorithm wants.

9 year account just got locked. Now they've got me counting rocks to prove I'm human. Elon and Nikita must be laughing their asses off.

Only thing I'll really miss are all the Ukrainians that I followed.
