    Cobra Pcm

    SOOOOO, some may recall a few months ago (after rebuild) I was having a starting issue and running issues. Well everything except my starting issue has ironed out. I am replacing the PCM, mainly because it was soldered once already (SIG RTRN) and I believe the PCM is not handling my Cold Idle...

    Lighting Issue

    Replaced the heater core today. Put everything back together, and start checking things. Had no blinkers. Found out the top connector on the multi-function was unplugged? Plugged it back in, blinkers return. Turn the lights on, all is working. On, my way home. I turn my running light on and have...

    41/91

    I know this has been covered. This one isn't a what's wrong. My 02's are shot, car runs rich as sin, sensors indicate lean. Aside from my EGR (deleted) codes, the only ones I have are the 41/91. My question is this: What sensors do I get or does it matter? I.E. Bosch lists two different part...

    Rather Odd...

    So since this engine went in, my car has had some running/idling issues. that I have narrowed down to a MAF and a BAP sensor. While running through the checklist, I made it to the timing portion. I had my clamp in one hand and grabbed the wire with my other. My timing light started to go off...

    Exploder Block In A Few Days.......

    So I was messing around with my car at work. Trying to cure an annoying whistle and trying to see if I could see a lower intake gasket leak (car was starting and dying on cold starts) While I was at it, I changed the oil. I have ran either 10W-30 or 20W-50. My shop only has 5W-30. I figured...

    Rhythmic Vibration

    I know I have searched on here, but can't really find an answer. I honestly can't remember if I have already asked the question here already, so here goes..... Between 65-80 mph I have a rhythmic vibration that I can feel in the shifter and slightly hear. I have replaced the tail shaft bushing...

I can change settings and flash the PCM in as little as 10 minutes.What do you need for an OBD I system? I'm not to clear on what I actually need. I want to be able to remove the EGR provision...

    Manual Shift Lever Ball Bushing

    Is there a bushing at the base of the shifter at the ball socket? I have a lot of play when engaged in a gear (in all directions) Before I take it apart I wanted to know if there was even anything there or if I should be looking at some other issue.

    Swapping Cluster, Have A Question

    Has anyone successfully swapped a 90-93 into an 87-89? If so, care to pm me with any issues you ran into. This would appear to be straight forward, but comparing the description of wires from one to the other, some things don't match up. I swapped a 140 from a different cluster and dropped it...

    Dont Know How To Explain Really

    Is It Just Me.........

    Or do ads like this aggravate everyone else as well. [email protected] I emailed him when I noticed the pics did not match what he said in regards to a GT 40 intake. He responded back with "that is a GT 40, it's the ones that come in the explorer." SMH. So I kindly...

    Cold Start Issue

    I know everyone is gonna beat me with sticks, but I am going to ask anyhow. 6 days ago, I fired my car up to leave work. It kinda sputtered then smoothed out. My car has always started and idled around 1K for about 20 - 30 seconds and then settled around my set 650-700 rpm range. This time...
