    Oil consumption.. compression test results.. help!

    Well, try one and see what happens with your application. I tried two large lines to the same PCV, that didn't work. (The PCV had two outputs. I tried a large line to the PCV directly....meaning I removed the 90 degree piece. I went the larger route first. I didn't try the extra PCV setup, but I...

    Oil consumption.. compression test results.. help!

    Mine was smoking too. I only replaced the PCV to upper intake line. I just have one line running from the PCV to upper intake. The oil cap line still connects to the throttle body.

    Oil consumption.. compression test results.. help!

    I still have the car and it quit using oil after I installed smaller lines. This engine has about 170psi compression so I was thinking it just has more blowby creating more of an oil mist or something. Anyway I went with lines about half the size of stock and the oil use stopped. I still drive...

    Sending The Computer Off To Be Re-manufactured?

    I sent my old computer off on a Thursday and got it back the following Tuesday. EcuExchange on ebay did a great job! I have put over 300 miles on the new computer with no problems. They have a lifetime warranty also. The price was $118 excluding you shipping the computer to them. You ship it...

    Sending The Computer Off To Be Re-manufactured?

    I checked the light blue/orange wire. It checks fine. Thanks for all the info. I called around a few performance shops here in Raleigh that do mostly Mustangs. They say they just send theirs out to get repaired at EcuExchange on ebay for $120 total. You just buy the service on ebay. They send...

    Sending The Computer Off To Be Re-manufactured?

    I'm not sure what happened. I have my daughter driving this car at college. She went out to start the car and the fuel pump continued to run. The engine would turn over, but did not start. The fuel pressure relay coil was not letting go until you turn the start switch off. (there was fuel...

    Both those places have them on back order at the warehouse. It seems you can't just go out and get one anymore.

    Sending The Computer Off To Be Re-manufactured?

    Hi, I have had no luck finding a place that currently sells a computer for my 1993 GT. It comes with the F3zf-FA computer. I have tried finding ANY automatic computer for sale at any of the auto parts places around town. Autopart.com sent me an email back really fast saying they would...

    "Original" Performer RPM Intake Specs?

    I guess I’ll go with the one with the bigger opening and see what happens since they are both for the same RPM range. Sounds like a plan! Jim

    "Original" Performer RPM Intake Specs?

    The opening in MM was the spec I was looking for. I have a 70 MM egr and TB on it right now. I just bought a Trick Flow intake that has a 75mm opening, I'm trying to figure out which intake to use. The trick flow is this one.... Trick Flow Specialties TFS-51500002 - Trick Flow Track Heat...

    Oil consumption.. compression test results.. help!

    Probably getting oil from the PCV. That's where I usually find the problem. Sometimes people put large vacuum lines on the PCV when they replace old ones. I have replaced the large lines with smaller lines and the oil consumption problem stopped. Just make sure you still have an air flow through...

    Injector Swap 2000 GT to 1990 LX?

    I friend of mine gave me the 2000 GT injectors for another engine, not the one in my profile. I was just wondering of they would work as far as correct ohms mainly. The injectors on this other engine are bad. Thanks, Jim

    Best Caster Camber Plates

    Ok, time for Caster/camber plates. Whick ones are the absolute best. I may use coil-overs in the future. I'm looking at some D&D motorsport plates right now. They have more bolts than the regular one. They work with the coil overs too. I just want some opinions on which ones to buy...

    Rear end swap to 3:73, early shift problem

    I understand what you are saying. I wonder how to change the line pressure and make it work right? Tell me more about the VB by Lentech. Does the shift pattern change to a 1,2,3,4 instead of the stock configuration? Also, what is the difference in shift hardness with just the VB change...
