All this scientific data clearly indicates that the judicious use of GENUINE Ford fuel conditioner will prevent every worst case scenario.

My next highly scientific test will be to hang a bottle of fuel conditioner from the rear view mirror, after removing the fuzzy dice. It is my theory that the entire truck will now be protected.
Works for me, try splashing a few drop as aftershave, it may keep your cholesterol level in check, too.

Three pages of post on this "topic". This thread might show the HPFP debacle has taken a toll on the forum. LONG LIVE THE 6.7! WOO WOO!

For those who have had a failure, it's a real and painful experience but yes, the endless discussions with repeat information has taken it's toll.

BTW, I'm fairly certain you need to hang two bottles from your mirror instead of one.
They can be small though as to not cause damage due to too much weight.

He must have been over the .08 limit and had poor judgement. He probably had to be towed to jail.

Look at the windshield. Possible bird strike? Or was that a brain strike?
