The Fumoto valve screws into the dry sump cannister which holds about 8 of the 9 quarts of oil, not into the 2 plugs in the oil pan which combined amounts to about 1.5 quarts. Whoops, reading comprehension, you said coolant not oil. Yes, it's recommended to use a vacuum system to change the...

Thanks Kendall. Fifteen years sounds better than 10 and I passed along your recommendation to prime the oil system if the car is not driven often.

Change Accessory and Supercharger belts after they are cracked, etc. like any other vehicle. There is no interval, just wear indications.

The manual says "change at 3 years only if stored for an extended period of time without the engine being operated." Extended period of time was not defined. Otherwise, the manual says to change oil pump drive belt at 48,000km or 30,000 miles. I've been told to probably change it every 10...

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Rally. It will be about a 3 day haul one way for me, but well worth it. Hopefully, you guys are planning for trailer parking. Thanks for doing all the work to make this happen. Having done many similar events, I know it is not easy.

You're joking, correct? The group is "05-06 Ford GT General Discussion". There is another group labeled "2017+ Ford GT". You've been a member long enough to know that, Alzheimer's setting in? LOL

NO. If you hold the pedal to the floor the computer will not let the car start.

Good idea Kendall. I know the oil change procedure.

Thanks. I'll keep using the ethanol-free 93 (EO 93).

Torrie, I have your pulley/tune and love it. When I installed it in 2008, only ethanol 93 octane was available. Recently stations in my area started offering ethanol-free 93 octane. Do I need a new tune to run ethanol-free 93 octane? No fault codes are showing. Second question, my GT...

Exactly what I was thinking. Thought SPI was a little strange wanting to see his mechanic in a bikini.

I'm in.

Sounds good to me. I've replaced both front and rear once already and the second set is already weakening.

Congratulations and welcome to the Forum. I've owned mine for over 12 years and still enjoy every mile. Don't be surprised when your refueling takes an hour. People really love this car and want to talk to you about it and of course I like telling them about the car also, but it does make the...

I'll see when the next car event is in our area and then see if Mike Mosing is available. I've attended the "All Fords" Pensacola event, Pensacola Cars and Coffee and the Pensacola-Atmore Road Rally many times with my GT. Also many events in Crestview, Foley, Destin and Panama City like the...

Congratulations. Although your announcement was a little bitter sweet. For 12 years, I was the only Tungsten/Silver in the area and now there are 2 and sounds like soon to be 3 with Tomcat's Tungsten/Silver. It would have been nice to see a few more color combinations. There are currently 4...

Get a Bendpak 4-post and 2 bridge jacks. Best of both worlds. It is bad to store a car on a 2-post lift as the suspension hangs and can damage the suspension if stored with tires hanging.

Before you order that crimper, I'd check your nearest AutoZone, O'Reily's, Advanced Auto Parts, etc. to see if they have a crimper you can borrow for free. They require a deposit which is refunded when you return a specialty tool like a crimper.

GDC, Based on your previous comment, it doesn't appear than you have accomplished any of the recalls nor followed the maintenance recommendations in the owners manual. The following recalls should have been accomplished over 10 years ago: Replace faulty half-shaft bolts as they WILL BREAK...

I was told by a fireman that it hasn't been approved yet for boats, but they are working on it. You might want to call Element, your fire dept or coast guard. I'd definitely consider getting one for the boat as a back up to an approved extinguisher if it's not approved yet.
