Nothing fun. I took my 2 English bulldogs to the vet today. After removing the baby's car seat and covering the seat with a blanket to keep fur out of the suede we took off. Once home I was diligently cleaning and conditioning the leather, removing and cleaning the weathertech liners and passing the vacuum I was happy to have it all cleaned up. Car seat is back in and ready for our daily trip to daycare in the morning. Two bulldogs on a 20 mile round trip produce a lot of slobber and fur.

Put the springs on yesterday, so I decided I needed to wash off the salt and get another layer of wax on it. Goes in Thursday for an alignment. Still waiting on the pad/rotors/steel braided lines to show up.

This weather we're having probably didn't help any with the timeline, BUT the new system will likely save you quite a bit of coin too.  At least that was my experience.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

With regard to the spark plugs, exactly what is the recommended makes and number to go one heat range cooler for 2010?

I think all the 2010s came with Motorcraft SP512 plugs.  The 2011 and 2012s came with SP528 which I think are one range cooler.  I have not been able to find a motorcraft heat range chart and am just going by what I have read in various forums.   The 2013+ use SP 534 which is the same heat range as the SP528 but now seems to be the plug of choice for all years.  I think, although I could be wrong, that the 528s came gapped at .035 and the 534s come gapped at .030.  It says on the box that the the gap is not adjustable and I have been told (not proven) that if you do change the gap, you alter the angle of spark and that is not a good thing.

Exterior detail yesterday late PM... Got behind someone leaking something the nite before... sprayed the whole front and top of the car and windshield.  Don't know what it was, small droplets...It got hard on the paint by the time I got home and the car felt like sandpaper and the car was dull....  :(

BUT I am happy to say that the CQuart Finest coating saved the paint.  I did an no touch wash and it all came off without any etching and the mirror shine is back!.  :biggrin:

Wish the laws preventing this could be enforced to save all our cars.  >:(

Nice, thorough cleaning on Saturday, when the weather was nice. She was filthy.

Rainy early this week, so I have her tucked in the garage.
Might take her out of the garage when it dries up on Thursday or Friday.
But, mostly, my SHO takes it easy in the garage every day.
