  1. You could delay the replacement with Techron Concentrate Plus or similar quality cleaner IF there is a debris issue in the rail or injector. But given the mileage on your vehicle, the longterm fix is to replace the injector. If you are DIY'ing, as long as you properly depressurize the fuel system, you should be fine. Then you can choose to just replace the one injector, or all of them. If you are paying to have this done, better to replace all of them at one time.
  2. Tone rings and wheel speed sensors are frequent culprits for such warnings. Sometimes you get false warnings, but that has only been noted in cases of extended idling, or while shifting gears.

  3. If an Osram branded bulb is available, I would take that over a Sylvania branded bulb any day. Time and again, I found the Osram to be significantly superior, both in output and longevity.
  4. Welcome, and congrats! The Taurus served you well, may it R.I.P.
  5. Sloppy service, but yes, the positive terminal on Gen 1.5 has been known for issues like this. Hopefully their diagnosis was better than their service!
  6. Power Stop offers different levels of kits https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=10187364&cc=3310415&jsn=1900 I would use a minimum of Z23/Z26 pads, preferably Z36 pads for performance oriented driving.
  7. Osram CBB D3S bulbs will be the best upgrade for your OEM HIDs. Give them a shot first.
  8. Welcome! If you plan on keeping the Edge a while, upgrading to Sync3 instead is a better option. You can put the kit together if you are a DIY'r, or buy the kits from various vendors.
  9. Yeah, last time I tried to disconnect a fuel injector, the connector broke off and would not stay latched. Much more of a PITA than the COP connector, LOL. Glad to hear the "master reset" worked. Let's see if it has any permanency.

    RIP

    Sorry for your loss! Hope you and yours are OK tho.
  11. Which engine do you have, the 3.5/3.7 or the 2.0?
  12. Race gas has been the best reviewed of all these products, that I have seen. If you want to get that 100+ octane kick, this is THE way to go. If you want to simply buttress that 91 performance, you can also try BND Automotive's ACES IV formula for gasoline engines. Brian has a wide variety of products for the engine and transmission, and they work well. I was able to get 3+ degrees of timing on 87 in our 2010 F Sport. You will notice the kick for sure. http://bndautomotive.com/aces-formulas/aces-iv-gasoline-formula/ Call him, but be prepare to have your ear talked off ?
  13. Check for CHRA kits for the 2.0 Ecoboost turbo. If available (eBay usually, but on Ford enthusiast sites also), that is a good option. A rebuild that includes better seals is the best option, but $$$.
  14. The firewall side of the engine is Bank 1 yes. Check the valve cover for leaks. Can happen if the PCV valve has not been replaced for a loooong time, for example.
  15. Best to look into having the manifolds ported for quickest return on investment. Similar to what has been done for the 3.5/3.7L engines by supersixmotorsports.com
  16. No oil life monitor on the Edge prior to the 2011 MY.
  17. Welcome! Hopefully your Edge will stay troublefree for a long time. Always keep up on fluid maintenance, do not fall for the extended intervals Ford suggests.
  18. Welcome to the community, and congrats!
  19. How to replace the EOP switch
  20. This link contains an interesting graph of brake fluid performance when moisture absorption exceeds DOT specified test limits https://www.epicbleedsolutions.com/resources/faq/dry-and-wet-boiling-points-dot-brake-fluid/ And increased hygroscopicity is not a bad thing. It keeps moisture from destroying metal components. It just means that a brake fluid tester should be used regularly to keep up with fluid condition, and/or do regular fluid flushes. You can get test strips/pens on Amazon pretty easy. Also note that if your brake system specifies LV fluid, be sure to check that the viscosity of any replacement fluid meets those specs.
