    Electrical Identify this connector

    Hello, does anyone know what this single wire connector is for? Ground for something? Its on the drivers side harness. I'm in the process of reassembling the car and its not apparent where it goes. The 2 wire is for AC I believe.

    Engine Utilize trans cooler on manual car?

    I am working on my 90 5.0 street/track-day build. To handle the lapping sessions I am doing some cooling upgrades. I bought the SVE 3-row aluminum rad and electric fan set-up from LMR as well as a stand-alone generic trans cooler. My car is a 5-speed but I plan to use the trans cooler for the...

    2 Wires Broken In Door Hinge Area

    I recently installed new power door lock actuators and was disappointed to find they did not actuate! I printed off a wiring diagram and determined that there are two broken wires (Pink/Light Green and Pink/Black). I figured they would be broken in the door hinge area so I proceeded to try to...

    Upper Control Arm Bolt Play

    I have had a nagging clunking issue coming from the rear end of my car for a little while now. i thought it was the insane amount of backlash in my gearing but I had the rear-end rebuilt with new gears and it did not help. Then I started to think it was the UCA bushings in the differential...

    Fuel Stock Fuel Pumps

    I was having issues with the engine cutting out when my fuel tank was below 3/4 full around hard corners so I picked up a used gas tank to swap with the one in my car. I'm told the tank is out of an '85 V6 car. The pump I pulled out of it is a Walbro model 5521. Is this an 88lph pump (aka can I...

    Check Oil Light & Knocking

    My check oil light came on last week and when I checked the oil level was right at the bottom of the dipstick. I topped it up but the oil light never went off and know I get a knocking in the bottom end at idle. Almost sounds like there's a small piece of metal in the exhaust. When I bring up...

    I'm doing Cobra brakes on my car and have to pick up the fluids later today. What is the brake fluid capacity for a mustang approximately? (It'll have 95 Cobra MC and 03/04 Cobra brakes) Also how much differential fluid do I need, and should I go with 75w140 or 75w90? Thanks

    M-2300-K kit Question?

    I'm probably going to be doing Cobra brakes on the car in the offseason and have been looking at the M-2300-K kit from FRPP. On the website it does not specify what year spindles come in the kit, and if the axles are fox-length, 94-98, etc. Does anyone know? I already have 94/95 spindles...

    Low speed stumbling

    My car is stumbling on acceleration, but only at low rpm's, below 2000 or so. It lurches a little, similar to if you engage the clutch to quickly. Once it's over 2000 or so rpm it runs smooth as butter. The exhaust also smells extremely rich. I have punched 1 cat as it was clogged but the other...

    5.0 Power drop and clanging noise

    Driving my mustang back from the alignment shop yesterday I was getting a lot of clanging/clattering in the exhaust. Almost like there was a nut or something in one of the cats. It had been doing this a little for a little while and yesterday it just got much worse. This was accompanied by a...

    Erratic RPM and Clatter

    Last fall I replaced my engine with another stock 5.0 because the oil pump driveshaft on the original engine twisted up like licorice. The replacement engine got new intake/exhaust and water pump gaskets as well as front/rear main seals. I put it in the car and along with some minor things like...

    Tune up gone wrong!

    So I decided to bite the bullet and give the winter beater a tune-up... now I wish I hadn't because it won't stay running. I replaced the plugs, PCV, Air Filter, and Fuel Filter. The old fuel filter was quite rusty and stuck in the line pretty good but I eventually got it off. Now when I fire...

    Engine stand question!

    I've got a spare '88 5.0L engine hanging from a cherry picker in my garage at the moment and I have an engine stand ready to go for it. My question is, what size bolts do I need to thread into the back of the block where the bellhousing would go so I can mount it up???

    Engine removal with headers or without?

    I was just curious which way is easier; a) Remove engine with headers still attached and then swap them to the new engine and drop it in --OR-- b) Leave headers in place attached to the H-Pipe and pull the engine, then drop new engine in-between the headers and re-install. These are...

    88 engine in 90 GT

    Just a quick question for you guys; If I were to put an 88 engine in my '90 would all of the MAF stuff and sensors bolt right up to it? I suspect I've ruined the bottom end of my engine and will need to swap one out. :SNSign:

    No Oil Pressure

    I had the fox out at the roadcourse last night and did a number of laps and brought it in to cool down. When I fired it back up I noticed a faint lifter ticking noise and that the oil pressure gauge was reading zero! The car is pretty much 100% stock with a stock distributor, stock oil pump...
