Good evening guys.
Aaron sorry to hear that you are having problems with the stang.
I have been doing some reading about your truck and you might have some trouble with your injectors and your cold starts.
A lot of guys have had good luck with the Rev-X oil additive.

i see that, i also see there is a huge debate thread about rev-x for big $$$ versus the zddp for minimal $$$. i may try it. it is at the bottom of my list now though, because the truck runs fine after 5 minutes of warmup time so its not a big issue. yet...

Good morning to the early crew.
Aaron I think you need to plan on a Powermax and some 155 sticks.
