Pure CO is, engine exhaust isn’t. Source: Had a few 2016 Excursions as rentals for two weeks. The smell of the EcoBoost equipped Excursion at idle made me want to pass out if any door were to be opened. Not sure if the Explorer is tuned the same way but it honestly smelled like straight raw fuel. On rare occasion we…

Our neighbor gave us that same line about a minivan being a soccer mom mobile went we got a caravan. They were the ones with a 2wd Explorer, and a kid that actually played soccer. I laughed at them.

Everyone knows it’s really all about the Express.

It’s likely a checklist item, followed by engine fire shutdown procedures to isolate the flow of fuel, hydraulic, and bleed air to the affected engine.

Might be variations in EGT if the damage was severe enough (I would assume higher EGT with lower RPM on N1 or the bypass side), yaw motion towards side with damaged engine if it’s not making as much power.

Just be sure to start at the right edge of the circle, not the left.

They were probably baking in the 90s.

It’s rather amusing that I bought an engine (EZ30D gen 2) from them a few days before they shut down.

On the flip side, an aircraft autopilot is generally far less automated. And it too will warn pilots before it disconnects, requiring occasional intervention.

Wouldn’t a donut car work best... On donuts. YEEEEAAAAHHHHHH!

Always found it amusing that cars with manual transmissions from that era didn’t get a tach, yet the automatics did.

This is not the journalism we want. It is the journalism we need.

I feel like most of that get beach getaway would involve trying to fruitlessly get it off said beach.

So expecting a delay of a day or two then? :)

A turd emoji no doubt.

1986 Corolla SR-5 installed some bigger anti-rollbars fore/aft. Made the daily drive much more responsive, also resolved some tire rub issues I had with running 195s and very hard cornering pushing it darn near the bumpstops.

I had to do an emergency repair on my AE86 while on the road and did a quick and dirty electric fuel pump install in a parts store parking lot to keep things moving. The power for the pump relay I installed is tied into my electric fan, as that was the easiest accessory power source I could tap reliably in that region.

Totally rad!

Juke headlights, side profile of that generation of focus everyone want’s to forget from the late 2000s, with a hint of Toyota Venza for the roofline.

Heck, if they made an hatchback or shooting brake FR-S my hatchback AE86 would be sold so fast.
