    taking stripes off

    Time It can be done, I did it on my other black LX that had a red stripe in the molding. I did not use a heat gun, but I did it on a 85 deg day. It takes time, a razor blade helps to just grab the corner of the stripe sometimes. Googone may help too. The problem is the stripe will break...

    Fuel line looks messed

    better I picked up some 5/16" rubber high pressure fuel line and some fuel line duckbill clamps. I only had a few minutes last night to work on it, but I did try a heat gun real quick and was able to get it better, still slightly misshaped but a lot better than it was. I am going to give...

    Fuel line looks messed

    thx Thanks for the input. The line says "High Pressure" so I am guessing that it's the feed line from the pump. It's straight now, but it still is kinked, the plastic wont go back to its original shape. There has to be a way to repair the line, I am just not familiar with exactly what...

    Fuel line looks messed

    bad Well looks like its been kinked long enough to where that plastic line is not gonna go back to shape. I straightened it out as best i could and ziptied it but it's still kinked. :mad: I see no easy way to replace that line either... just continues waaaay back as far as I can tell. Looks...

    Fuel line looks messed

    Thanks for your input, that was my thought also. Not good thats for sure. :nonono: "How long has it been that way?" Not sure, I've only owned the car for about 2 years, but it's been an ongoing process to get the car running properly. Previous owner :rolleyes: Oh and BTW, your black Capri...

    Fuel line looks messed

    Could someone go out to their car and take a look underneath at their high pressure fuel line on the passenger side near the swaybar mount. I am changing bushings and noticed it looks kinked. Is this normal?

    why do you drive a fox?

    Fox love I drive a fox for a few reasons... 1) I've wanted one since before I could drive. In highschool I would have given anything for a fox (although I'm glad I didn't have one then, I probably would have killed myself) and I knew I just had to have one someday. 2) The look. Foxes (LXs...

    I sold my 89 and got a truck pics

    !! :eek: Man, gears too! Why the hell can't I find deals like that around here. :notnice: A fox for $2500 around here will get you primer and rust, usually a vert and no 5 lug or gears.

    Opinions for another car

    Hmm Um...if a $4000 civic is a magnet for theft, you may want to consider moving... :shrug: You could also go to the nearest junkyard and buy a off color bumper to replace the "ricer" one you said you put on. Maybe buy an off color hood too or something to make it look less nice. :shrug:

    I sold my 89 and got a truck pics

    ?!?! Woah $2500 for the 5 lug notch !?!!? :eek: I'm not even in the market and I would have probably given you $2500 for it as long as it was solid. Damn man. Thats super cheap. Nice L, but I'm more of a Stang guy than a truck guy myself.

    Considering a 1987 mustang gt I need advice

    hmm Kind of hard to tell from that pic, but it kind of looks like there is some rust under the paint above the rear wheel well. Bring a flashlight when you go to see it and crawl under it and poke the floorboard area with your fingers looking for rust. Check her over real good and see what...

    Advice needed thanks ( Got beat by a Colbalt ss)

    mods If it were me with a car that low mileage, I'd finish off the simple bolt ons and keep the stock look under the hood. Tmoss ported intake: stock look and flows almost exactly as well as the Cobra, bigger mass air meter, 65mm TB. If you want to dig in a little deeper, heads and a cam...

    Updating 4 eyes to late fox standards? Debate!

    What wha? So let me get this straight... You want to buy a 86 or older fox because it's cheaper than an 87-93 and then you want to spend the time and money to update the front end and all the interior to a 87-93 style? Why? You are going to end up spending as much as you would have if you...

    car is running lean...

    Yep Not to threadjack just real quick: Believe me, been there done that on the codes... I have a notepad with codes and numbers and stuff on it in the garage somewhere (not home right now). Short version, the only code is a smog pump error because the previous owner removed it. The back of...

    car is running lean...

    hmm I'm all ears if you have a "better" solution... To be honest, it seemed a little strange to me also, but it's the only thing that seemed to work and after pulling my hair out for months I'm happy. After hours and hours of my own time, checking engine codes, replacing vac lines...

    A Foosed Fox?

    No thanks Not a fan of his stuff at all. All his stuff has wheels that are way too big and blingtastic. The draw of the Fox for me (LXs in particular) has always been the simplicity and clean look. No stuck on scoops or extra crap to clutter them up.
