Only time will tell how healthy this engine is. Modular 4v engines can be very sensitive to oil being in all the right places on startup. Legit Street Cars and Stay Tuned each had fresh modular builds that they accidentally torched because they didn’t prime the oiling systems before first startup. Likely a car sitting 10+ years may not be as bad as a fresh engine with assembly lube only, but it should still give pause. Ford even included a feature where you can floor the throttle as you try to start it, and the ECU will cut fuel so that oil can circulate through the engine. Hopefully they checked everything and primed it before first startup

@V10ViperSRT that's the problem with our society nowadays everyone has to comment, but people will listen to your dumb advice and run with it. Instead of knowing the truth and reality lol

The car has been sitting 10-12 yrs , nothing is checked oil, spark plugs ,wires , fluids ,turns it over with crap gas in it , it’s running on 3 cylinders should have been the first clue to shut it off ! It’s a super car not an auction block special, it could have stuck valves? Mice could have chewed wires, they don’t know why it’s setting there the past owner may have parked it and not used it because something was wrong with it and couldn’t afford to get it fixed , it seems that the car isn’t the only thing firing on 3 cylinders !

No way in hell that car started with 10-15 year old gas.

Yes, it is very possible. Especially higher octane or non ethanol fuel. Not a problem. Do it all the time with vehicles I’ve impounded.

@guy9904 ай бұрын
10-15 year old gas is still good gas, gas from 7 years to now is what's going bad and clogging up injectors now with all the blends of chemicals and ethanol they put in it now

sounded like 10 yr old gas

kinda cringed that they didnt check any of the fluids at all when they said its been sitting for 10 + years. sick it works but that's a risky move

It does not sound happy. You even smell the gas or check the condition of the oil before starting?
@jowarrior4 ай бұрын
This really looked like a fabricated barn find, tires had air, has gas, they started without checking the oil. Feels like a promotional video to all of Eds friends

@jowarrior Betting they pumped the tires & did some cursory liquid checks before moving the car. Probably wasn't worth the B-Roll.
