Random thoughts for the day

So I gave Tommy Z Design a call and Mr. Tommy himself answered. Tommy in fact does have grilles available for the 2013+ Taurus'.

Tommy uses the police interceptor style grille and cuts out the existing mesh, he'll add either a stainless mesh or black powder coated mesh- with or without the oval. As well as a matching lower grille.

He does offer to have the grille surround factory paint matched.

Good news for us 2013+ cars looking for grille options.
 
After the big rain storm in Phoenix last Saturday my land line phone was funky and the internet connection was inoperable… currently patched using my cell phone as a modem.  After 2 reps and 2 1/2 hours on the phone my ISP decided there was a problem with their lines…  :homer:

So they are sending a repair tech to get it fixed this afternoon… As soon as it's back up with some speed I'll get the hotpipes install pics (about 60 or so) and tips posted.

I love my tint guy buddy!  He re-did my PPE stickers on the windshield for me. 

Now, I am going to bed.
 
Dealer is about to pick up my ride. FML! Yesterday i was driving to work and my car started to act wierd when i got on base. The car started to stutter, bellow white smoke that smelled like straight gas. No idea what it is. I got 2 codes which were P00C6 and P0302. Fuel rail pressure too low engine cranking and cylinder 2 misfire. Ill find out later exactly what it is.
 
Another case of hydrolock?  I hope not, fingers crossed.  We had a case a few months ago where someone had their fuel injector fail and cause fuel to be dumped into the engine & everything downstream, destroying their aftermarket cats.

Did you resolve the starting problems you were seeing earlier?
 
I didnt hear anything from the dealer as of yet. It starts fine most of the time but in a few cases it would start and stutter for half a second then it would be ok. Other times i will leave it idling for 5 min and i would put it in drive and it would hesitate as if there was no fuel. Then it would proceed to catch up i guess and would be fine after that. Just my luck with FORD. My second FORD since my 95 f150 reg cab long bed staright six. Tranny went out in that. I have always been a GM man and figure wth... why not?
 
Now that i think aboit it... my starting and idleing issues might be from that injector being fouled/ stuck open. WTF! Sorry 4dr for my lack of sensorship.
