    Vent switch issue

    I'm having an issue with the vent direction switch, it seems to be stuck on defrost and will not move to floor, vent, mix, etc. The switch itself moves, but the airflow direction does not change. I believe the blend motor is vacuum operated but I'm not sure where to look for a bad line. I feel...

    Cobra fog lights

    While driving today I lost a lens on one of my cobra fogs. I've been unable to find anyplace that sells just the clear plastic lens and I'm not trying to buy the whole assembly. I did however find some 87-93 gt/cobra fog light lenses for around $20. Does anyone know if these will fit 94-98 cobra...

    Chewing up right front tire

    My passenger side front tire is wearing very uneven; the inner edge balding much quicker than the rest of the tire. What would cause this? The steering feels aligned, however I do get a shimmy between 50-55mph (probably due to the uneven wear). I visually inspected my front end components...

    Cobra front tag pics

    Hey guys, I'm hoping for some pics of your front tag setups/mounts on a cobra bumper. I've been going sans front plate since i had my car repainted and installed the cobra bumper a few summers back, but I'm sick of getting pulled over by cops with nothing better to do. I'd like to avoid drilling...

    Hard starting, hesitation, stalling

    As the title suggests I've been having some problems with my '95 lately. About every third start, it cranks and cranks but doesn't fire. Usually takes about 3 turns of the key before it kicks over, then usually stalls right after. After this it starts and idles. Under load, the engine cuts out...

    Hey guys, i have an unusual problem. My left front speaker plays much softer than the other three. When isolating the sound output, the other speakers play as loud on setting 7 as the lt. front plays on setting 15. I've switched it with the pass. side speaker and the result is the same, so the...

    Any way to pass emissions w.o cats?

    Well as the title suggests i wanna go catless on my car. It's simply a weekend toy so im not worried about pollution i maybe drive it 200 miles a month.
