  1. Boss engine oil ?

    I think the warranty is void once the car leaves the USA or Canada? Uk now gets rhd versions of the new Mustang, but they were never sold here prior to that officially.
  2. Boss engine oil ?

    Thanks for the replies guys. There are not many Boss's here in England. I think there might be 18 known about examples, But then not everyone joins a car club or attends car shows. I did think the cams would require a specific viscosity, So I'll stick with the 5w50. I have put 6000 miles on it...
  3. Boss engine oil ?

    Bit of advice please;My 12 Boss does use/burn some oil, and as its due an oil change is it better to use a thicker 10w40 now its got 10.000 miles on it? Or must the Boss have its 5w50 ?And how many litres are needed for a full change?Thanks in advance!

  5. uneven acceleration

    Yeah a 'hitch' might well describe it - nothing as serious as a misfire. and as the revs go through the 4k area could well cover it. I didn't want to hear of a sensor that needed replacing or oil related problem with the cams or some other nonsence! (like a Mazda MX5 throwing fault codes and...
  6. uneven acceleration

    Not used The Boss for a while (its winter here in UK) But I did some full pedal to the carpet acceleration from rolling starts, Off corners/junctions/overtakes and the car seamed to accelerate unevenly. Back end squirmed a bit, not sure if this was due to worn out road surfaces or a slight...

  10. What did you do to your Boss 302 or S197 today?

    Re: What did you do to your boss today?Found it ! To be honest. I found my Boss a tad under whelming. Suspension too soft.. just not as good on country roads as I thought it would be. All a bit floppy... but today... I changed the damper settings which were set on 2, back & front, to 4 on the...
