What have you done to your mustang today?

[sidvicious]

Got the newly painted front calipers installed.

Beautiful. That will be a nice contrast to the all black theme you have going.

Cancelled my SiriusXM subscription. Washed it finally. So shine. Much clean.

Very wow. Much Doge.

Installed my old Bama 93H tune. Had been running the streetV2 and didn't care for it. Picked up 1MPG on the first tank. Runs better too. I don't care for the "instant on" feel of the 93Rv2.

I never found the race tune to be all that fun for daily driving. The throttle is way too sensitive. So much so that when I left the parking lot at the office I was having to continually slip the clutch to move through it at a reasonable speed.

Today I went ahead and replaced the stock clutch fluid line with the new McLeod unit I've had for about 6 months.

The job sucks unless you have tiny hands, which I don't, and a variety of long needle-nose pliers are highly needed to do this.
I bought a few recently, and I still could've used a 45-degree angled 11-12" long one.
The bottom connection is the one that SUCKS.

Got it all done, go to put the top clip back in, it springs back and flies off into never-find-land.
Gone it is.
Ford only sells it with a new clutch line, a friend can get it locally for $56 but I'm still going crazy looking for just a clip.
Ended up ordering a VW clip off eBay since it looks almost identical to the one I had.

VW clip on left, Ford clip on right:

And the clutch lines:

Was a bit pissed to see the McLeod line didn't include new o-rings:

 

[HitandRunDriver]

After two months of it sitting, finally got it in for a wash, full paint correction, and finally CQuartz'd it. 2 coats and I'm happy with the finished product, adding Reload when I get home.

And I just found the lost clutch-line clip!!

The little bastard was hiding in the plastic tray thingy that protects the fuel lines:

Expect many Sirius phone calls to follow for you reactivate. They are ruthless. Lol

When my free trial period expired after I bought my car they began calling me. I shut them down quickly by telling them that the sound quality sucks because it's in mono instead of stereo and that I would never ever consider paying for such crappy sounding radio. That was the very last time I ever heard from them, no more junk mail either.

Ha! I literally lol'd.

So very true.

Stopped and looked at a 2016 today -- nice competition orange GT/CS convertible with voice activated navigation. Not a bad price and the trade in offer wasn't bad but not as much as I'd like.

Just not sure I want to end up with a car payment again. My 2013 has been paid off for 2 years.

There are some nice turbo kits available for the Coyote ...

That sucks, mine came with the O rings. I'm going to put in a separate clutch reservoir in a couple weeks. Glad to see you found the clip..

Thanks and yeah, I did the GTO reservoir a few days ago.

I think there's a Ford Ranger reservoir that can also be used, and maybe a higher-capacity Corvette Z06 reservoir also ... I'd like to replace the GTO one with something bigger eventually

I have a 2011 ranger so I'll have to look at it, I went with the Wilwood one.

Is the Wilwood a one-piece or a 2-piece unit?
I heard about one that's a 2-piece and they leak over time, not sure if the Wilwood was it

I hate the race version. That throttle is stupid sensitive. It literally is full throttle by 1/4 push. I do like the performance tune allot.

Jim,

I think we are going to see in the very near future a New 2016 Mustang at your house.

Did you notice any noticeable difference in clutch operation after the install? I have been contemplating upgrading the line.
