    Fuel Bad Gas Need To Drain Tank

    I usually put stabilizer in it for the winter, I don't remember if I did or not last year. I tried two old fuel pumps with no luck, then I tried a hand pump,no flow. Does anyone remember if there is a screen in the filler neck? Stang was parked in a sealed garage connected to myhouse. I dont...

    Anyone Else Running 235/40/18's On Their Fox?

    She looks good with the 18's. I know I'm off subject but how does it ride/feel with 40's? I just posted a few days ago about tire options with stock 10 hole rims(ordered tires yesterday). How do you handle potholes or speed bumps without bending a rim? I might be getting old but how does your...

    Thanks for the post. My current stang, since 02, is a 86 and I've owner 3 86's in the past. That line up of engines looks awesome. It's a one year only engine. I still have mine, but it's on a engine stand in the back of my garage

    Fox Body Radio

    What I did is ditch all the factory stuff. Disconnect the factory amp. Run new speaker wires. Newer head pieces have more power then the factory amp will give you. When you have the carpet pulled up on the sides, run a set of rca cables, remote cable(single wire), and a power wire. You will...

    Y'all Ever Put In A Headliner?

    I replaced one on my 2nd stang, still have it its a parts car now, headliner is still sticking. I got the fabric from a fabric shop and glued it in with spray adhesive. Use a putty knife or something flat to scrape all the loose foam off. Spray the adhesive to the fabric and the cardboard...

    Maf Conversion

    Hold off on the 24lb injectors for a while, you wont need them yet. You can convert to mass air with only a mass air computer, a few plug switches on your computer harness and a mass air meter. You don't have to change the harness. "jricker?" has all the spec, I'm shure he will reply .. I have...

    Installing Prothane Bushings...

    I had poly in my control arms of my last 5.0. They were great on the interstate but I hated them on roads with potholes. It was a rough ride and the squeaked a lot. I don't know if I'm right but I would use some marine (waterproof) grease on them. I think its in a green tube, if your using a...

    Dual Alternator Bracket For Mustang 5.0

    Why do you need 2 alts? Our newest ambulance has 2. (2012 I think?) Its a ford v-10 gas, on a van chassis. It also has I think 4 batteries.

    Fox Considering A 5.0 Foxbody

    You dident say if you were buying it for a Daily Driver or for a "toy". DD a 20 plus year old mustang can get expensive, especially when you just get it and don't know its history. My first 5.0(3rd stang) was a 1990 lx with 80,000 miles in 2000. The first year I dd it I had to replace shocks...

    Rear Right Tire Sticks Out More Than Rear Left Tire.

    I cant see it in the pictures. You might want to check your rear bushings. Are they stock or aftermarket? Take a flash light and shine it inbetween the body and lower arm. There should be a metal sleave next to the bolt. Is it worn on the ends? A lot of hard launches might wear your mounts...

    7.5 Rear

    Ditto.. I would look for a 8.8 with the gear set you are looking for, and only pay for it once. I don't know what a 7.5 can handle but a 351 puts out a lot more torque than a 302.
