Hi all.
I've pulled the trigger and booked my car in for a tune next month. Just wondering if there's anything I should be doing before the tune? Plugs are OEM Ford ones and gapped to 1.1mm about 5k km ago. Engine oil changed about 1500km ago. Power steering fluid (through a failure) is brand new. Trans fluid (ZF auto) changed around 10k km ago. Air filter is K&N and will be cleaned closer to date. Anything I should do in preparation for it? |

Are you changing any parts. How much boost you aiming for. If above 10psi fit a set of bf lpg plugs from Ford. They are gapped factory at 0.7 and cost $60 for 6

Yeh fuel filter if it's more than 50k old. Gapping from 1.1 to 0.7 leaves a bad angle for the electrode. Plugs have to come out so may as well replace with new ones
