Dear legends
I am planning to bleed my brake fluid in my Ranger Raptor with electric brake booster with the Motive power bleeder. I know I have to put the brake system in maintenance mode before the bleeding, I will do that with Forscan.
My question is, what would be the recommended pressure...
Thank you for your reply!
I am about to jump the fence on Baxter adaptor as well as I have been seeing the forbidden glitter in my oil filter, not a lot but enough for me to feel uncomfortable.
I have two questions regarding the Baxter adapter…
1. Which spin-on filter do you use that fit in...
Does the cartridge oil filter housing have anti-drain back system to keep engine oil in the upper part of the engin? I am getting conflicting information regarding this in both 2.7 and 3.0 EB. Can anyone please shed some light?
Thanks in advance ??
What are opinions on fuel injector cleaner products for the Ecoboost? Are they necessary (considering top tier fuel isn’t available)? What products are recommended and at what intervals?
Thank in advance ?

Ford uses variable cam timing (called Ti-VCT) to help reduce NOx, so EGR system is not needed. Without EGR, valve deposits can be reduced, but yet still will be present.
My observation has been that if the temp reaches to 212F, the thermostat opens, the temp will quickly drop down to 203F … and repeats.
From what I understand the transmission cooler line is controlled by thermostat which starts to open at 203F and fully opened at 216F.
Hello friends,
I am getting 10% short term fuel trim on bank 1 only when revving in park.
The truck is 2 years old with 60k miles. What do you guys think this could be?
I have been using Ravenol DXG 5w-30 at 5,000 mile intervals. I get a fat discount on Ravenol here in my location.
The DXG ticks all boxes :
- SP (RC), D1Gen3, GF-6, m2c961-A1 approved.
- Higher HTHS at 3.25 cSt (higher than Motorcraft counter part)
- Very low NOACk at 6%
- Very good base oil...
Early versions (Australia/Thailand) of the Raptors diff fluid were under-filled by almost a quart. This the main cause of premature diff failure. I recommend checking rear diff fluid level as soon as you receive the truck.
Automatic brake assist when backing out of my garage almost gave me heart attack a few times. I avoid it by keeping my foot on the brake pedal while backing out. It seems to help.
Just want to say hello!
Ranger Raptor MY 2022 as daily driver here for over two years. Looking forward to learning useful information about the truck from this forum.
