So I bought this 94 GT with a 5.0 and a blown head gasket. I replaced the head gasket but can’t get this thing started. I’ve got a brand new distributor, coil, and plug wires. Here’s what I’ve found: The fuel pump will absolutely not run unless I jump the two pins at the diagnostic connector on...

I bought a replacement aod transmission from a guy off Craig's list to replace mine that needs a rebuild. I just got it all bolted up to the motor and went to install the drive shaft, and the yoke won't slide all the way in to the tail of the transmission. There's probably a good two inches left...

I've been doing some research but can't get a definite answer with all of these different opinions from people. I'm currently rebuilding my 89 lx and am now looking into some new wheels. I've got my eyes on the XXR 568's in 17x10 rear and 17x9 front. The rear is 20mm offset, 6.29 back spacing...

I am swapping my AOD to a T5 and I have a guy selling me the full T5 swap out of his car that he's parting out. I know I probably shouldn't just stick all the used parts in my car, so what parts should I buy new?

I've made the decision to start tearing my engine apart for a rebuild (it has a blown head gasket) I plan to do a pretty mild build and I'd like it to pass ca emissions. I will be using this rebuild kit - http://www.summitracing.com/parts/fem-mhp173-300/overview/year/1989/make/ford/model/mustang...

I'm thinking about rebuilding my AOD transmission that recently went out instead of having a shop doing it or getting a new one. I have pretty decent mechanical knowledge and I'm trying to save some money. Is it worth the headache? Do i need special tools for the rebuild? I would like to rebuild...

My daily driver 89 lx hatch recently took a nasty fall. The transmission blew and right after that it overheated and blew a head gasket and a couple other things. I got a new car so im using this as my opportunity to finally do something nice with the fox. I've been looking all over the internet...

Hello, Recently my car started making a "grinding noise" every time I start it, and it seems to go away after the car starts. Just now I went to start my car and it started right up, but shut off right after it started. It did this about 5 times until I held my foot on the gas a bit to keep it...

So I have an 89 automatic and my e-brake hasn't work since I bought the car. I don't think the cable is snapped as it still has tension when I pull it up, but it doesn't stop the car at all from rolling when in gear. So what could my problem be?

Hey everyone, im new here and thought this would be a good place to clear some things up about my wheel fitment and get some advice from others. I've got an 89 mustang with an 03 cobra IRS in the rear and its lowered quite a bit. As of now its just on some 96 gt wheels, but id like to get some...

Okay so I bought this car about a year ago and all this work was already done. It sits pretty low.. It has a 03 cobra irs swap, 03 cobra exhaust, off-road h pipe, and sn-95 spindle swap in the front. and that's about it. Currently it's running 245-50 in back and 225-50 in front on the stock rims...

I've been going back and forth about cleaning my throttle body after reading what people are saying about doing it. I have an 89 lx. I have a brand new gasket for the TB and a bottle of CRC TB cleaner. I'd like to remove it from the car and give it a deep cleaning. It's VERY dirty and i want to...

Hello, Well I'm new to these forums and I had a question about my 89 lx i was hoping somebody could answer for me. The previous owner of my car did the 03 cobra IRS swap. Basically, I'm not sure what he did, but the car is way too low, he even said. I know he had the front springs cut, I...
