    My "Brake Bar" came off my drum, can I replace just that?

    I was driving yesterday with the window down and everytime I went over a bump I heard a rattle, so last night I took off my driver side rear wheel, and pulled off the drum brake cover and this just fell to the ground: RockAuto says this is a "Brake bar" but my service manual calls it a...

    Can anybody ID these headers?

    So I pulled these off to have them coated and was wondering if anybody knew what brand these were. I'd also like to know if a new set of headers would bolt right up to the H-pipe, or if the exhaust was custom made to fit these headers. Would you guys recommend a certain brand...

    How rare are Ultra Blue 91's?

    Low oil level sensor - How does it work?

    I was just curious as to how this sensor worked. I have this on the side of my oil pan, and it seems to be slowly seeping oil out the center. Is there supposed to be anything plugged into it? Is changing it as easy as taking it out then putting the new one back in? Is it common for these...

    Bought a 5L, have some questions.

    Hey everybody, great site here, glad to be a part of it. I just bought a 91 GT. It is currently leaking coolant right at the bottom of the water pump. It's a slow leak, maybe a couple drips every 5 minutes of idling. I've read that the waterpump gasket is a pretty common failure point, I...
