LOL, I will look around!

Well went in over the weekend to the shop doing the expel application and ceramic coating on wheels and calipers and the check engine light was gone on start up. The mystery will have to wait till I get it back home to check out in more detail in a few days. Thank you for the suggestions!

Thank you gents! No K&N filter. Will look today!

The car is in having old 3M film removed and new expel applied. They called to say that when starting the car to move it the check engine light came on, it is showing code P1101 MAF sensor out of read codes range. Any thoughts on what to check for when I go over there? TIA!

13/16" socket should get them off, if badly distorted try a 21mm. A flank drive socket would be best if they are very loose. Hope this helps.

Are referencing the stainless hex caps on the nuts? If so they are not designed to come off, simply put a hex wrench or socket on them.

14MM x 1.5. FWIW I had a Ford TI nut here and checked it over. All within spec. Cone seat was 60.27 degrees. Obviously it was not your nut Special K and the seat on the wheel will also dictate where the contact band is.

Stud is 14MM.

Special K, The contact band in the photo is low on the seat compared to what we typically see after torque tension testing. We have equipment that measures torque/tension as many OEMs have a tension range that must be met over a number of cycles (typically 10, sometimes 20) at a specified...

Well, tough to misinterpret that. Moly dry lubes from what I know though can have different particle sizes and chemistry so I was just surprised they are not more specific. Ti does not yield like steel does so the 'stretch' of the joint that gives the tension is a bit different than with a steel...

All OEM 60 degree lug nuts have a tolerance of plus 1 degree or 1/2 degree and minus zero. Maybe the TI is changing something I am not aware of but a moly lube (no specific formula?) is dangerous on threads or the seat of a normal steel lug nut. You are asking for trouble as the tension the...

FWIW I put Bridgestone 235/45R18 on the front and they worked fine as well.

n my second set of Bridgestone's, never had issues and much better tires than the originals.

Shaughnessy Overland treated my vette with kid gloves. Literally wear white cotton gloves when touching the car. My vette was in with some antique prancing ponies as well as some newer ones. I only used them twice but was impressed.
