    More A/C Woes

    I am trying to locate the A/C drain hose on my 90LX. It is obviously clogged because it is leaking back in the the interior filling the pan and when I make turns it will come out on the floor. I have been searching all morning and some posts say it is on the drivers side some say its on the...

    Bbk X-pipe Fitment Issues

    I have heard people in the same boat about the BBKs. Well all of the cheaper priced exhaust systems really. You get what you pay for. It isn't hard to resolve, and for the price it is a good product. If you take it to an exhaust shop, they probably won't even have to heat them.

    headers

    Take your time do it one side at a time. I didn't have to jack the motor up on the driver side, and I used an engine hoist and picked up on the passenger side just a little. That way I had plenty of room to crawl around under the car. Be careful of the lines and hoses near the firewall though.

    Oil Pressure drop?

    :stupid: I would check you oil level and your filter. That temperature shouldn't have that much of and effect on your pressure. If anything a colder temperature would make your oil pressure higher, and then decrease as the engine warms.

    Found my fuel leak! But...

    While browsing through the summit site, I came across some fittings that say they work without flaring the hard line. Would these work in my situation? Here is the link.

    Found my fuel leak! But...

    I saw that fitting in summit and that was what i was going to use to connect the braided hose to the rail, but i don't know how to connect it to the line from the tank though.

    Found my fuel leak! But...

    Hey, I have been experiencing some pretty poor gas milage and found a leak in my line yesterday. It is in the line that runs to the fuel rail. The only problem is...ford discontinued making these and I can't find one ANYWHERE. What is everyone else doing? I am thinking that my only option...

    Help me set mine up right!

    I want to add a little bass to my stereo setup. I am currently running an Alpine 9811 head unit, a set of JBL 6.5"s in the door and some Boston 6x8s in the rear. I was thinking about just adding a sub in the back, and I would really like for my speakers to be powered by an amp rather than my...

    EEC-IV Experts

    I believe my car does indeed have the A9L PCM, but like I said, there is some sort of metal cover with a chip built inside of it, and this is plugged into the top of the computer. There isn't tape over it. This cover has factory ford stickers on it and other little details of the car (i.e...

    EEC-IV Experts

    I have been having a gas milage problem (it sucks 9mpg) and decided to pull out the Superchip that the previous owner told me was in the computer. He mentioned something about another chip being in the computer, but this being my first ford or computuer controlled vehicle for that matter, I had...

    trouble with idle, rpms wont drop

    I refer to what you are talking about as a hanging idle. Mine does this too, and has gotten a little worse since I put a new MAF sensor on. I am going to check and make sure my TPS it where it should be and set my idle where I want it with the IAB disconnected. Im going to try that tomorrow...

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    Well, it looks like that cured the problem. I haven't run a full tank yet so I don't know the milage, but the needle sure as hell doesn't move as fast as it did! Before the MAF sensor, I would be right below half tank at 70 miles. I already put 50 miles on this fresh tank and its just left...

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    i don't think my guages are off and if they are it isn't by much. When you do the math subtracting what you put in from the size of the tank the guages don't even matter only the odometer...which is funcitonal. I just pulled the codes and it looks as if my MAF sensor has gone bad. Im am going...

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    well it really isn't an issue with the gas guage. The numbers speak for themselves. I am going to get some codes pulled today and go from there. I am hoping that i am leaking at the fuel rail where my guages is mounted. I know it doesn't leak at idle, but maybe under load.

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    I did change the fuel filter. I even let the car run for a little while to make sure it wasn't leaking. I do want to change the ignition. I have a MSD 6AL box from my old car that I want to put on, but I haven't found a good mounting spot without switching over to a fenderwell cold air setup.

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    I am starting to think that I have a leak in my system somewhere (possibly where my guage is mounted). The plugs were perfect when I pulled them out, yet I my fuel has to be going somewhere! I am going to remove the Superchip that the previous owner put into the computer to see what kind of...

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    I just bought the car recently, so I couldn't tell you as far as long term, but it has always gotten this kind of milage since I have had it. I do not drive like a nut at all. I was actually trying to baby it to stretch this tank out as much as possible. I replaced the O2s when I did a tune...

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    well I did a full tune up to her and if anything the gas milage got a little worse. I have a serious problem here and i can't put my finger on it. The car runs great, the engine is VERY strong, heck it will break the tires loose at will even with the stock 2.73s out back. But it is sucking...

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    I just felt like I was missing something when I read other peoples post and saw them getting closer to 20 mpg

    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    I have a 90GT with stock motor and gears. I am getting about 150 miles out of a tank in the city and just a tad over 200 on the highway. The previous owner did put a Superchip in the car, but even that shouldn't affect the milage THAT much. I am going to do a tuneup replacing the filters...
