    ac drains battery

    R-12 vs R-134A Im fairly certain all newer cars run R-134A as R-12 is discontinued in autos (at least it is in Canada). However I will jump on the bandwagon here and say take it to a shop - R-12 isn't enviormetally friendly. I know when the AC died in my 93 Areostar we had to convert it over...

    Tonneau Covers (hard)

    Any of you vert owners use the hard (batman style) Tonneau Covers? I've got a line on one that will fit my stang ( the current onwer sold his vert) but didn't sell the Tonneau Covers with the car and they are sitting in his barn collecting dust. Price is right - Free, but not sure I'd use it as...

    Car is STILL a slug...

    Check the O2 sensor If either of them is dead - your stang will run like a gutless pig on a saturday night! With that said I've got a shift kit in mine with 3:73 and while its not kick you in the pants fast it will get up and go out of the hole and yes its a vert! Good luck! I feel your pain!

    trunk liner panels

    Check a wreckers sometimes you get lucky and can find what your looking for in great shape - I was so peeved off a couple of years ago when I found 95 Rag top w/leather interior open to the elements at a local wrecking yard! I'd have bought the interior - didn't have a rip in it - but alas it...

    All tucked in for its long winter's nap

    Yea I pulled mine off the road 30 days ago. The weather hasn't been the greatest anyways I could have really only driven with the top down maybe 5 or 6 days out of the 30. I'm too old to drive in the cold!

    Stang Randomly Dies

    Well I took out the old TFI module and split the heat sink off the back and cleaned out the old compound (still tacky but had gotten somewhat chalky at the edges. Spread some DE compound between the heat sink & module and put back in. I'll let you know when I've run it long enough to see it that...

    Let me how you make out, mine is doing the same thing, however it wasn't the pip. It's certainly an electrical issue! But like looking for a needle in a haystack!

    Stalling Issue

    Update! Still got the stalling issue, not the pip, I replaced the distrib with a new one. This is seriously frustrating as we are not getting an check engine light, it just dies, however I've had it coasting in neutral and start on its own! Any other ideas! Like any lame horse, sometimes you...
