Your best resource is parts.ford.com. From looking, besides fuel lines and vapor lines, the only parts that are involved in the fuel injection to the rail are the fuel pump, fuel pressure sensor (not a regulator) and the fuel pump driver module.

If it is worse after you refuel, you might have a bad vapor canister purge valve. If it is stuck open it will "flood" the engine and cause a hard start. Usually you will have related codes to the purge valve though. You can take it out and try blowing through it, if you can blow through it, it is stuck open and replace it. If you can't it is either working or stuck closed, but if it is stuck closed you shouldn't have the hard start condition.

You can keep throwing parts at it, but it sounds like you really need to hook it up to diagnostics that you can monitor a bunch of stuff. I could think of several things like a partial sensor failure or fuel pump relay. It could also be a low voltage problem.

First of all, why would you take a brand new '25 Dark Horse and hack it all up? Was it totaled? It would be far cheaper to go the crate motor route than hack up a dark horse and try to fight all the integration gremlins. Benefit of the crate motor is that the control packs are take out all the unnecessary stuff, and only worry about the engine and transmission. Then you can build an aftermarket gauge cluster from there.

Bob, the "System off to Save Battery" is your warning. You most likely have an AGM battery in that so make sure your charger is AGM compatible. The short drive cycles are not good for the AGM's long term, although they will hold that charge longer. I have found that whenever I get the the low battery warning, it only takes 1 night of charging with my NOCO Genius 10 to get it back in shape.

Just buy the F-150 from the same model year and swap the grill insert. Done, faux Mark LT.

Mid century office buildings are renowned for their build quality. If anyone has ever worked in an office building or commercial structure built in that time frame knows that most of the time it is far cheaper to demo the whole thing and build a complete new building that meets the current needs and is flexible to meet future needs.

No locking diff except for Tremor and SSV, can't get it on the Platinum or King Ranch.

That is why it is such an expensive option. Requires meticulous hand layup detailing to make sure the outer layers for each panel line up. Contrast to a normal carbon fiber that will be painted, they can lay the weave however they want.

Ford production is basically a mirror image USB symbol:

Too much efficiency loss in a mechanical storage solution. Friction is a killer in mechanical systems. Flywheels are great for high burst energy where the frictional losses are minimal compared to the output, but you could do the same with a large capacitor. Water gravity storage has the problem of multiplied efficiency, you have losses in the pumping to elevation, and you have the losses in the return turbine generator.

I don't know if you have a lot of seat time with blue cruise, but I have done several multi-hour trips with it in our Nautilus and I will tell you the eyes on the road sensor is a pain in the ass. Almost to the point that the system is unusable. You can't drink from a water bottle or cup without block the sensor for a few seconds, which trips the warning. You can't perform a normal scan of your surroundings without tripping a warning. Hell, when making a lane change, if you look in the sideview mirror for a fraction of second too long, it barks at you. The purpose of Level 3 (which I would guess would be in limited areas) would be to eliminate the annoyances of the current level 2 implementation. It wouldn't mean you can sleep or watch a movie, but perhaps you would be able to carry on a normal conversation, play with the navigation or search for something on the radio without the system yelling at you. Tesla's problem with level 2 is that they make their customers believe it is level 3 and refuse to use systems other than optical. The human eye is much better at adjusting to different conditions than optical sensors are, which is why every other company incorporates multi-sensor technology.
