    Hi, I've been driving a 99' GT with 120K on it for about a week, and when it is cold it sputters under load. In first, I have to let the clutch out at high RPMs so it doesn't sputter. When I am coasting with the clutch in, the RPMs slowly fall down under 500 then die. I am a 5.0 kinda guy so...

    1970 Mach 1 speedo cable, need to remove.

    We are restopring a 70' Mach 1 and the speedometer cable and stuff in there is broken. How do I remove it? The areas around it seem to be riveted together, I'm sure there's an obvious solution here. Thanks.

    Symptoms of a Bad Tie Rod End?

    Just wonderin because my car's left side suspension area rattles when I hit bumps. I had my front struts replaced but that didn't fix it. Also, could a bad tie rod end cause uneven tire wear?

    Car is BackFiring, has a High Idle, and Reeks of Gas. Exhaust Leak? Bad O2's? Help!

    Yeah if your o2s are bad your car wouldve thrown you a CE light. To check for a leak, make sure your car is cold. Start it, and put your hands around where you think the leaks would be (Header to H pipe meeting), if you feel air pulsing out, then youve got your leak.

    My PS Pulley Jiggles, I'm Guessing This is Bad.

    So I took my belt off to adjust my water pump pulley and just so happened to grab the power steering pulley, the thing jiggles and even pulls out a bit (2 mm maybe). Also it is leaking fluid... This may solve my belt squeal and shredding probs as the fluid was on the belt traction area. Time...
