    Reviving my 2000 GT. She's sat for years, pre-start checklist?

    My 2000 GT has sat for around 8 years. Before I attempt to start it up, how can I make sure the engine isn't seized up and make sure I don't damage anything? I'm going to change the oil and replace the copper plugs before trying to start it, and inspect the cylinders at that time. Should I spray...

    A vid from today at the track

    And a few pics.. Yea the maxima is mine too, it went 16.0@87mph :rlaugh: Not bad for a 13 year old 3.0 though, I guess.

    MMR LCA's, anyone used them?

    I guess I've acquired a free set.. how are these for DD/corner carving? I do hit up the track on drag radials/n2o some, but my car is auto and won't have a high stall for a while yet.. I do a LOT of stressful turning though. Yay or nay? :shrug:

    Interior lights stopped working after WOT, no blown fuse..

    Last night I was testing some things out and I went WOT a few times, and my interior lights just went out on me. They went dim for a second, then went out completely. The gauges and warning indicator lights all still work and the clock and odo reading are still lit up, but they're lit up in the...

    Using a new style remote/key combo keyfob on a 99-04 Mustang

    So I got bored and tried to see if my new Fusion's key can be recognized by my Mustang, and to my surprise it WORKS flawlessly! I followed the standard programming method (turn key from ACC to RUN 8 times in rapid succession, not turning the key all the way back to the remove position...

    Door window coming unglued from tracks

    My window has been screwed up for a while, when I roll it up the back end was sitting up too high and I had to shove it down to make the door shut right.. I finally took the door apart tonight and found this: But I cant remove this bracket to clean the old silicone off because that...

    Pin connections for cig lighter?

    Anyone know which pin is what? I'm re-wiring the cig lighter in my car onto another circuit.. The factory connector seems dead (checked fuses) the connector is shaped like this: [] [] ..[] 1 2 ..3 I think #1 is +12, and #3 is the ground.. #2 looks like it goes to a small metal...

    Why is it important for a gauges ground lead to be near the sending unit?

    On all the Autometer instructions for their gauges, it specifies that the ground wire on the gauge should be a "good engine ground near the sender". Why does it matter? Won't grounding it to a chassis ground or the neg battery terminal be just the same? I'm redoing all of my accessory...

    Did anyone elses saleen brake light fade pink? (warning: saleen rant)

    In less than a year my brake light in my 3-piece saleen wing faded from a vibrant red to pale, washed out pink. It was so horribly ugly I sprayed it with transparent black spraypaint to just make it match the body, which looks pretty good too. <rant> It pisses me off so bad with how much I...

    Anybody polished/painted a nitrous bottle?

    I'm sick of the way my bottle looks, its the plain white NX bottle and the sticker is all messed up, blah it just looks nasty. How hard is it to polish one to a chrome-like finish? What about paint, what kind/how much would you use? Any ideas on making it look nicer are appreciated :SNSign:

    Wires for amp signal on non-mach stereo?

    Does anyone have a diagram or chart for which wires are the +/- speaker inputs for the rear speakers in the main wire loom in the back? We are adding a ~1000w amp/sub, already have a hi/lo impedence converter with rca outs so all we need is to find what wires to tap off of. TIA

    I think I broke something..UGH.

    I was leaving my house earlier and hit a 1/2 of a brick that was laying in the road, i thought it hit the k-member brace (convertibles-only brace i think) but I cant tell yet.. Anyway, the next big sharp turn I took I hear a weird buzzing/grinding noise. If I barely flutter the throttle it will...

    Piece of sh_t mustangs.

    I just would like to take some time to remind everyone, you gotta pay to play! Especially, apparently, with mustangs. 00 GT blows totally stock engine at 53k sitting at stop sign, known factory defect. Warrantied shortblock from Ford comes with a leaking pan. 00 GT auto transmission...

    Other possibilities for IAC symptoms?

    My friends 2000 GT tries to die almost every time you clutch-in coming to a stopsign.. especially if you downshift into 2nd, then clutch and brake it will bog to ~400 and then just die. We replaced the IAC with one off an 01 and it helped it a little, but it still dies sometimes. On a...

    What could break free and be grinding in the diff?

    Last night when I took my car out all of a sudden this loud deep wirring noise started. It sounds like when you run over a coke can with a bicycle tire and it rubs against the tire. I put the rear on jack stands today and its coming from the differential, if you place your hand on the dif cover...
