LOL God don't your love this site. Info galore....feels like we are never alone in this venture. Thanks again good info
Easyoff is what I will try in the future.

K. Wilson...funny huh same thing for you. I took the pipe to a muffler shop and had a nice bead welded around the ends of the pipe. This end that blew off was even double clamped at the time.

It was a pretty extreme situation to say the least. 110 to 115 C 1900 rpm and hit the key for immediate off. Yikes.....flashover

Interesting to see where it sits on a normal idle? The stories about not being able to handle 5-10 minutes at a light on a summer day or what have you.

So should I be shooting for a lesser mix of coolant 60/40 or 70/30
I had used about a 50/50, should read the label huh??
last place a guy looks..the instructions

I changed out the oil today. Went for the fancy motorcraft racing filter (FL1HP), much heavier than the other motorcraft one (FL1A) I had on for breakin. Initially I had dumped 8 liters in before stratup and today I saw only about 6.5 l. come out from the pan. Also u can count a little in the filter. So those oil lines and that remote cooler do account for about 1 - 1.5 liters. Oil didn't look too bad. Darker but still golden.
