    REALLY need your guys' help/advice (possibly scammed)

    yeah I make a little less than the woman (ouch) and our credit scores are very similiar. I'm starting to get more and more calm about the situation. after speaking w/ multiple people and continued research on the web and my contract, I have found that if the financing falls through than I...

    REALLY need your guys' help/advice (possibly scammed)

    Yeah I'm gonna make some calls first thing in the morning but I want to have my guns loaded, and know exactly what rights I have. it wasn't a hole in the wall either...it's Central Florida Chrysler Jeep Dodge. (pretty huge)

    REALLY need your guys' help/advice (possibly scammed)

    Hey everyone, sorry for the desperate topic title but I can't sleep because I feel like I'm getting scammed, but may still be able to do something about it. I traded in the stang last tuesday w/ a few grand of neg. equity on an 04 ram. long story short i was approved 'on the spot' at 7pm...

    Stang traded in...

    yeah it's a little boring driving an auto but the smoothness of the ride is great. I also like the convenience of throwing crap in the back and going - rather than having to find a friend w/ a truck etc. If I really get the urge I'll be able to find a cheap GT down the road.

    Stang traded in...

    Well I traded it in tonight. The clutch was doing some WEIRD stuff and having just finished all the work that I did to this car I wasn't ABOUT to take it apart again. here's what I picked up for about 10k w/ 40k miles on it...

    knocking when clutch is engaged (at idle)

    yeah it was definitely solid metal. If I had to guess what the knocking is I'd say the clutch fork on the sides of the bell housing.

    knocking when clutch is engaged (at idle)

    I just replaced everything (clutch, flywheel, pressure plate, TOB) about 6k miles ago, but over the last 2k the TOB has started squeeling again. I adjusted the clutch so there was a little pressure on it at all times to lessen the squeeling but that only lasted for about a week before the...

    1999 Mustang GT...whats it worth?

    I hope they make it work for you, but they usually don't go to bat for you unless you go sit at their table for 10 hours straight. lol sorry for my negativity about the dealers...you're just seeing my fangs come out from the hatred I harbor for them. I hate BS

    1999 Mustang GT...whats it worth?

    Good luck man, I feel your pain. Dealing w/ a dealership is quite an undertaking...you feel like you're planning a raid on Vietnam or something w/ all the mental preperation and the game face on. Then you get the whole piece of paper thing where no matter what you tell them you need, they come...

    1999 Mustang GT...whats it worth?

    Yeah I've been trying to capitalize on this whole economy thing too, but I've found zero cooperation from dealerships. There was an 05 gt that I couldn't get a dealership to drop $1500 off of it's 17,900 sticker. It's been there for over a month too. I don't get it. Oh yeah, and to the...

    After 9 months of no Mustang... 56k beware

    you probably killed some wildlife w/ 5 quarts of oil evenly spread over a few mile span lol. :dead: I just know the only time I really got up to high speed (before the new engine and tranny) it vibrated like a mother. Not like from the wheels, but like the transmission wasn't enjoying...

    After 9 months of no Mustang... 56k beware

    that couldn't have been a comfy ride! Was it smooth? How did it sound when that piston ejected? lol

    Alot of problems lol

    the coolant thing is easy...sounds like the sensor that plugs into the reservoir. (has a floting thing that detects the level) transmission whine...is it the right fluid level? I know you shouldn't have too much or too little, has to be just right - or a synchro is gettin tired in there...

    injectors from 04 grand marquis in 00 gt?

    yeah about that...I no longer have them. They were really dirty and looked gunked up so like a reject I threw 'em out. :rolleyes:

    injectors from 04 grand marquis in 00 gt?

    As seen in my sig, just dropped a 4.6 from an 04 grand marquis (only 20k miles on it) into my 2000 stang, and used the injectors on the engine. The clips on the injector harnesses wont clip onto the injectors (I fabbed a way for them to stay on securely) and I get a lean code every month or...

    can head/cam caps be replaced

    Can the caps that hold a cam in place be swapped w/ caps from different heads of the same year etc.? They are all machined to the same specs right?

    some white smoke out pipes

    I'm a little nervous...just a little though. I've noticed some white smoke behind me coming out the tailpipes when I'm idling. this is after driving 20 miles at highway speeds on a rare 45 degree day in Orlando. I noticed it a little the other day too when it wasn't that chilly. It's...

    Thinking of selling my lexus for a mustang...

    I bought a 95 sc400 pearl w/ an ungodly high amount of miles on it to use as a daily driver. It rode like a dream (when it would run w/out bucking like a mother). I got it to hold me over til I could afford to fix the stang (spun rod bearing and transmission problems.) Long story short...
