    Stock fuel pump ate it

    In the midst of running errands the other day I ran her down to E, I mean she quite literally chugged and died at the pump. I filled her up, she started, ran rough, chugged for a few seconds, and died. She wont restart and I don't hear the pump cycling when I turn the key to ON now so it's my...

    Timing retard=engine running hot/high NOx?

    Without posting a long rambling thread the short version is I took the mustang in for a smog, ended up getting failed because the timing was off and the previous owner had destroyed most of the charcoal canister lines and etc. The shop finally sorted it all out and now with the equipment all in...

    Steering vibration at speed

    Once reaching road speeds I get a fair amount of vibration from the front end, I just replaced my rack assy and my outer tie-rod ends as well as my rotors, bearings, etc. While I was down there I checked out the rag joint and it looks fairly new, so my question is what else might be the culprit...

    Shifter and Rack and Pinion assy replacement?

    I'm in the middle of trying to replace my rack, the old one is leaking and I wanted a faster ratio rack. The problem is separating my spindle from the ball joint, I put my 3 jaw puller on to break it loose but the puller keeps jumping off, I've done this on a few other cars without this problem...

    Transmission alignment.

    I'm referring to the orientation of the transmission in relation to the tunnel not the engine. Here's the problem, I recently replaced my clutch (and bearings, etc) and upon reinstalling the whole shebang I find myself faced with an entirely new issue, I'm now attempting to reinstall my shifter...

    Replacing my clutch

    Ok I've seen numerous posts from guys saying don't do it, take it to a shop, etc. Looking back I really should've listened but it's too late now. Problem A most shops are asking almost $500 just in labor to change the clutch using my parts, problem B I've always done my own work unless the...

    Tie Rod Extenders?

    I'll skip the long drawn out story but while leaving the beach the other day I committed one of the cardinal sins of driving. Driving aggressively while tired :nonono: fortunately nobody was hurt and no property was damaged aside from my own, I nodded off in a curve and woke up just in time to...

    1997 Nightmare GT

    This post is going to be a little scattered due to the late hour and the high level of frustration at this point. I recently went shopping for a Mustang, initially looking for a good Fox Body in my price range but everything I came across was too far away to bother with or in generally shoddy...

    Trying to select the right carb.

    I recently came across a 1984 GLX Vert cheap, the add says runs, wont pass smog, needs new carb. While I realize there's probably far more to it not passing smog than a carb I would like to know what carb to buy for the car in the event that the rest of the car is in reasonable shape when I go...
