    Door lock switch has no power

    1990 Mustang GT fastback but I did find the wiring diagram already on here. Thanks alot for the fast help. I'm checking the wrong CB then it seems. I remember seeing another one of these on the starter solenoid. Ill go and see what its up to....back. It was totally disconnected. I think this...

    Door lock switch has no power

    My door locks decided to stop working when I swapped my driver side door. I took off the door panel on the drivers side and disconnected 4 pin connector for the door lock switch. I looked for power at the blk/white wire and there is nothing there. If I understand it correctly, fuse 14 is the...

    Spring Difference

    I agree you can make a wide variety of springs while keeping the wire diameter constant, by changing the amount of coils per inch, diameter of those coils and altering other geometries. I also have compared rear springs from an 83 carpi rs and an 89 conv lx and it was instantly noticable the...

    If you removed your power steering look in here!

    I'll look when I get home for them. I scrapped out a bone stock 89 and kept all the fasterns. If I can find them.... they would still be a couple days from you.

    Tune required with longtubes???

    I have a bone stock 5.0 and long tubes on it witch is arguably a dumb combo but its what is here. I have no issues that I know of my car runs hard no mileage problems or anything detectable. The o2 are farther down stream and it makes sense the o2's get warmed up slower with long tubes but at...

    1.7 RR on stock valvetrain?!

    The valves wont open so far as to hit the pistons. What will happen though with stock valve covers is the passenger side with the oil fill, the second rocker back from the front rubs. This should be clearanced because it will touch in one area. I just pulled off my valve covers and I had the 93...

    No oil pressure on startup/headerbolt question

    Just some initial thoughts on this oil pump issue. To me, it sounds like your pickup tube is loosing its prime and is having to completely refill itself with oil before it gets the pressure up. If your looking at a lazy electric oil pressure needle it could be a instrument issue. The most...

    Waterpump

    Go to autozone and ask for a water pump for a 1990 town car. it will look exactly the same as a 5.0 but the impeller and flow channels will be like the one above in the pictures of this red mustang. Its like 40 dollars.

    Installing timing pointer ??

    I think hes referring to the slop that exists in the pointer due to it having larger wholes it in than the outside diameter of the 5/16 bolts that bolt it down. I would split the difference and call it good. I just put mine on and didnt even cross my mind to think about it which I should have...

    T5 Problems

    I would say your clutch may not be disengaging fully when things warm up. Adjusting your clutch cable tighter and looking for a change would be what i would do.

    Fuel Pump randomly stopped working...

    The fuel pump relay thats under your driver seat I would check first. Grab ahold of it when it is supposed to prime and see if it is doing its thing. I know the fuel pump isn't running but the relay may still be getting ground for 2 sec and allowing continuity through itself like its supposed...

    mustang tries to start on its own when battery is connected

    Starter solenoid is allowing this to happen again. Don't know why but its like the only thing I can think of. It either has power on its 12v post signaling it to allow current to pass, or its faulty.

    Problems after T5 Swap

    sounds like the fuel pump isnt doing its thing. Sometimes wild unrelated bugs appear when you upgrade your car, i think this is one of those times. I can't think of anything in the swap you could have done right off the top, given that your ride is turning over great. I would hot wire your fuel...

    rearend vibrating very bad after trac-loc rebuild

    Did you remove the driveshaft from the companion flange? I wonder sometimes if this really would have massive vibrations consequences if it was flopped. I need to take the time and flip my driveshaft 180 one time just to see if this has any effect. I can't understand why it rotating it 180 would...

    Installing Pressure Plate noob question

    Done that before. Good thing about forgeting the block plate, is once you do it once, you will never do it again ha. So frustrating. But yea the 10.5 inch clutch with the dowels will go onto the flywheel 3 different ways. If its all fresh choose a way and let her rip. But if you ever take it off...
