    17’ Transit 2mpg boost

    As always I constantly tinker, with everything ! After MATS I put my airtabs on AND performed a tune up. I used Motorcraft 534 plugs but did a little old school thought I gapped them at .024 instead of .032! The old wives tale was more power smaller gap thinking why not this 16-17 is killing me...

    How long to keep a Sprinter...

    Lately the wife and I keep asking ourselves this question.. Our sprinter has 3/4 a million miles on it and we've done nothing above basic maintenance on it . I'm starting to get weary as I'm starting to see its age lol. I've had no working glow plugs for well over a year and it's starting to...

Seriously if I'd known I would have removed the factory ones in the beginning ! I know the sprinter sites...

    Noise barrier wisdom
