Jim Warman Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 So I'm trying to answer a question for a fleet customer (hell, I'm just trying to figure out if he needs to even ask the question) concerning Motorcraft Gold antifreeze.... While perusing the MSDS document for the product we see "do not allow this product to freeze..."!?!?!?! HUH!?!?!?!Do not allow your antifreeze to freeze - words to live by.. So.. let's jump to TSBs 08-25-07 and 08-25-08. Sadly, the wording for these (item 7) was corrected I have just discovered... For those that haven't had the pleasure, item 7 deals with PCV/VCV look up tables which have been revised with the current flash. In the early release of the TSB these were called the Positive Crankcase Ventilation valve and the Vapor Control Valve... IIRC, I may still have a hard copy of one of these TSBs on hand that I can scan and post. But... if that isn't enough... why do we have TSBs 08-25-6/7/8 when we have FSA 08B07? If a truck comes in for a concern, which should I perform first? Do I apply the TSB to fix the running concern and then do the FSA? Jeez... instead of giving me duplicate crap - reduce my chargebacks.. Ford has a lot of examples of overstating the obvious, belabouring the idiotic and just plain missing the boat... What little gems have you found? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Browning Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I am still chuckling about the warning in the shop manual about de-gas bottle caps. You know, the one that states the cap is made with components that are not compatible with coolant. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/scratchhead.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
