    MotorCraft Oil Filter

    More stuff online I've run across over the years. You guys will form your own opinions. What this does not show, which you can find online videos of, is how some filters have very poor quality media, parts are glued together, gaskets that get stuck to the oil filter mount which you have to scrape off, and gaskets that fall off. Not all tension springs and clips are equal. The best videos also show what those filters look like when cut open after XXXX thousand miles. Even the canisters aren't equal. I recall some canisters being so flimsy that when I tried to remove it with a filter wrench, the canister crushed like a beer can.

  2. So I was watching old movies (as in black and white) over the holidays and saw an early (around 1940-1950) sedan delivery flash by on the screen. The thought hit me... "That kinda looks like a TC" (it was probably the wine...) Anyhow, as I thought about it some more, I realized "Duh, what do you think a sedan delivery is!". A delivery vehicle built on a car chassis. So for your amusement, here is a pic of a '46 and a link to short history of the sedan delivery. https://macsmotorcitygarage.com/another-look-at-sedan-deliveries/

    K&N 33-5002

    In the turbo world it seems everyone installs a "high flow" air filter. But there is serious doubt if they improve performance. Add a new air box, cold air intake, new hoses etc and the vehicle will sound different but real measurable gains on a Dyno are elusive. Only after upgrading the tune or turbo do you see real performance improvements. Install the K&N if it filters better and you want it, but don't expect more horsepower.

  4. Sounds like you are making it work for you. There's a triangle shaped plastic trim piece in front of your mirror and behind the door hinge. Remove that. You will see a hole which will allow you to run wire into the cabin. Then you can run your wires into the van, and to the rear, right alongside the OEM wire run.
