    timing my car? can you guys give me some pointers?

    I don't know what the correct timing is for your car, but BTDC is easily found by looking at the rotation of the pully. If the pully rotates clockwise and you have a plate that shows a 0 then it would be the 12 BEFORE it gets to the 0. If it is After top dead center then it would be the 12...

    Love my Stang, but don't know how you guys who drive them daily do it

    I use mine as a DD, but I wish I didn't have to. Can't even afford a clunker right now...besides, I drive 35 miles one way to work everyday and I'd need something better than a clunker for dependability. I love driving the Mustang, but I wish I could have a DD so it would last longer. Today I...

    Before I call the Dealer....

    Got in touch with K&N and they are sending me a new intake tube. They say I have an older version and there has been an update. They also said I should be using 92 or higher octane. I've been using 89 only because of the cost. I guess I'll wait and see how it goes with the new intake tube...

    How do you make your loved ones understand...

    Be afraid...be very afraid. A controlling man is probably NOT the person you would want to spend the rest of your life with. You seem like a very independent woman with interests....that's a good thing. Don't become someone you aren't just to "be with somebody". Sorry if that is too harsh...

    Before I call the Dealer....

    Didn't put any little piece in the filter. Don't even remember it being mentioned in the instructions. I got in touch with K&N and they say they will get back to me shortly. Maybe the little piece is what they want to talk about. Thanks for the help.

    Before I call the Dealer....

    Ok...so how do I go about getting a tune now? I'm sorry, but I'm new to all this CAI and tune stuff. When I read about the CAI on K&N's website, I thought I understood that the unit I bought did not require a tune. In the instructions it just says to disconnect the battery before installing...

    Before I call the Dealer....

    So last week I installed Magnapaks and K&N CAI and kept the stock tune on my '09 GT. I drove it all week back and forth to work and got on it once or twice and everything seemed fine. Today I got on it in second gear and not sure of the rpm, but at about 4000, I think, it shut down and went...

    i think. i did the right thing yesterday,

    My credit score sucked when I bought my '09 last year. I had just gone bankrupt because my business failed in the bad economy. But I was still able to get 1.5 percent through Ford Credit. I did have an Escape and the payments were up to date.

    sequentials

    So hook 'em up and try it...what is the worst that could happen...you might have to out and buy a flasher.

    sequentials

    Its according to how old the seq are that you bought. I don't know what year they changed it, but the newer ones automatically adjust to your flasher. The older ones came with a flasher that was slower.

    Planet Magnaflow StangNet Deals

    Just a short note of Praise....I ordered the Magnapaks and they were delivered as promised and priced as promised. I looked all over and could not find them even close to the price that I got from Planet Magnaflow. Thanks guys...it was a pleasure doing business with you.

    Oh Dammit. . .

    This might sound stupid to some of you gearheads out there, but to me it seems like it could just be a hung valve. I've had that happen (not with the new Mustang) but with older cars when I went to move them from the garage out to the driveway and didn't give the oil enough of a chance to heat...

    Long Island Cedar Beach

    Ya...thats the bad part about is getting up that early on a Sunday. Its the parking lot just west of the Robert Moses bridge. The old Oak Beach Inn used to be there. But it really is quite a gathering...might be worth it one time to get up early and take a look. There has to be over 200 cars...
