    1992 2.3 missing terribly up to 2000 RPM

    I just bought a very well taken care of '92 2.3 hatchback with 90K original miles. It has the dual-plug head. The car was stored for quite sometime, so therefore it's completely rust free, but I think the storage may be whats making the engine act up. The car ran absolutely perfect for the first...

    91-93 2.3 guys

    or maybe if this can refer to earlier years....I was fiddling around with my car earlier and I noticed a plastic flexible tube running from the back of my air box to a metal coating on my header. It wasn't connected to the airbox, just the header. What the hell is it? My car runs fine and it...

    What the hell is a removed air silencer and how do you do this? I've always wondered what it was.

    Alright guys, I think I've finally made up my mind.

    I think I'm gonna turbo my car, but I keep hearing it's not a good idea to just mount any turbo on a dual plug head engine. Should I find an old Turbo Coupe and yank the engine and rebuild it, or can I find a way to use my block I have now and maybe swap heads? I'm just curious here. Now that I...

    The never ending list of problems...this time it's the heater.

    Now my heater isn't working right. It takes that damn car about 15 minutes before decently warm air even comes out, and about a half hour the car is not even halfway warmed up. What do I need to do? Thermostat? Heater core? I'm stumped.

    Stereo and dome light not coming on...

    Ok, so I was told I could butcher the stock wires on my car stereo and match up colors to install a Pioneer cd player I have. When I tried installing it, my dome light went out and my stereo never came back on. I was told I blew a fuse but I checked the fuses for both and neither of them were...

    Best bang for the buck for handling on a hatchback?

    What could I get for my car that will be affordable and would get me great handling? Just wondering here. I was looking into making my Mustang a handling monster...instead of trying to make it fast because it's a four-banger :p

    Reasons why not to turbo a dual-plug Mustang.

    What are the major reasons why turboing a dual-plug 4-cylinder Mustang is a bad thing? I've heard NOT to turbo one, but I've also heard that people have done it before with success. I'm a little confused here.

    Electrical Problem?

    So I have been tinkering around with my 93 LX for a few days and I've noticed the alternator was warm, but the battery has been dead on my car for about 4 or 5 days now. So tonight I recharged the battery and started the car up to listen to my new exhaust set up :D Something didn't sound right...

    Help with rear drum brakes.

    Ok, so I have never put on new drum brakes before and I'm hearing there are adjusters on the brakes that allow the drums to be put back on. I do not know where these adjusters are and I cannot get my new drums on. Please help me here! I'm a newbie to rear brakes.

    Starter question.

    Will this fit on my car? If so, will it work properly on a 4 cylinder Mustang? Just making sure before I bid on it.

    Intake Tweaking for better power and fuel mileage...

I took it off earlier only to find that theres about a 1" and a half hole for airflow when the intake is like 4 inches around. I was told to use PVC pipe instead for better airflow and purchase...

    Turboing an N/A 93 LX.

    Ok, I have a 93 LX hatch, and yes I know it's extremely slow. I'm thinking of turboing this thing but it's a dual plug engine? Or whatever they call it. People have told me not to turbo one of these engines but I've heard it's been done no problem. Should I try it or should I not? What should I...

    Battery in my 93 LX keeps draining!

    It's really starting to irk me a bit. I was told to remove the wires from the bad starter I have. So I removed the wires and the battery still drained after I recharged it. Then I was told it was the stereo draining the battery, so I recharged the battery, removed the stereo, and the battery...
