Funny how the argument is down to 2 Ply sidewall vs 3 Ply sidewall, do any of know you actual know the thickness of said Ply in a sidewall?

 

Lowest bidder?

 

Shop for gas at Bradley, Kings, Safeway, Sinclair or stations that only say "gas"? Many things can cause catalyst failure including poor fuel quality or crapy additives (seafoam treatments).

Dare I say, oil consumption?

 

Exactly. Beat me to it.

 

Off road Tire talk.
Let the butthurt rage within.

 

I don't think the duratracs are 100% bad tires. I actually think they are a good tire. Although I think they are the bottom of their category (snow rated AT) I would take the BFG, Cooper, Falken over the duratracs.

 

But "brand X" is the best! We all know, the only true off road tire that is perfect in every category............................... Michelin!

 

I'll echo @WillT and @TheMuffinMan and say that it looks like you have a sensible plan for your needs and stepping up to the next size tire from stock like a 265/75/16 or 265/70/17 would be decent for mostly highway driving with the occasional backcountry trail.

 

Acquired this guy over the weekend. If anybody is on the fence over any of the Legion series it's worth it.

 

So you're thinking that it's more likely to be a cat issue and not a O2 sensor issue?

 

Do your tests 1st but typically with those codes. A cat is a cat.

 

I've done it twice now, and while I do need an extension (8 or 12, can't remember), and the left bank is less convenient than the right... I haven't found it to be that big a deal. Yes, they come with different brand plugs in either side (manufacturing agreement). You'll have to go out of your way to repeat that though, almost every place including dealerships only carries one or the other.

But enough about this silly tire argument. Let's change the tune. You shouldn't put iridium plugs in a 1GR-FE engine (that's the 4.0 V6 for those who don't know it), unless you're supercharged. It calls for copper for a reason. Numerous threads on this, two schools of thought. One of them is 'engineering! science!' and the other one is 'durn I hate changin' spark plugs'.

 

What brand is it? I'm never buying them.

 

Did another Ford spit out a plug going down the road?

 

Bridgestone, #1 choice of turtle lovers everywhere

 

Anyone know when urd is going to release the ucon for 09+ tacos it's only been a few years since they said it was going to come out.

 

Wait, what internet engineer thinks the only benefit to Iridium plugs is extended service interval? Show me this magic!

 

Damn, now I'm torn. Had multiple sets of Potenza s02s that were awesome.

 

The reality is that no air filled tire is completely safe from punctures. But it's still fun to make fun of your buddies' misfortune.
