quick xr6 Suspended 229 Member For: 16y 2m 3d Gender: Male Location: sydney Posted 05/04/08 01:35 PM Share Posted 05/04/08 01:35 PM HI I have a ba xr6 n/a with a colder thermostat fpv cold air intake and exhuast and also custom tune from C&V pulling 181.8 rw/kw. I like to known what you think. I service it ever 5000km. If I use a after market fuel filter after 3000km the car has LOST POWER if I use motorcraft fuel filter no problem but every where I tryed to get one no one sells it. Does anybody known were to get one or do I have to go to ford. THANKS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One less thing they can whine about if the need for a warranty claim comes about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
