    I have a Hurst Billet Plus shifter on my 89 GT. The stock knob fits fine. I'd like to swap the knob out for an OEM Mach I/Bullitt knob. Will this work? If not, anyone know of a repro Mach I/Bullitt knob that will fit it? I will admit I got a supposedly OEM Mach I/Bullitt knob off eBay. The...

    Code 29...Mid Range Acceleration Shudder

    I keep getting a Code 29 in continuous memory on my 89 GT with a T5 and the A9P computer. VSS is relatively new and the cruise works fine and no stalling at stops. What gives? My car feels like a weak cylinder with a mid range mild shudder during acceleration and was trying to get to a...

    Timing Issue with A9P Swapped for A9L?

    Anyone swap in an A9P computer for a A9L? If so, did you get pinging in the mid-range under acceleration? Stock 89 GT with T5 trans....I know the A9P pulls in +10 deg timing in midrange rpm and +1/2 deg at WOT over the A9L. I have a minor mid-range rattle that seems to lessen when I use...

    Here's a Source for Window Motor Brushes

    Stalling in very hot weather.

    My Stang stalls when it gets over 100 out. It stalls when I come to a stop then usually can be restarted. Sometimes it has to cool down for 10-15 minutes then will start like nothing happened. Another thing is when hot out it will occasionally drop from a cruise of 75mph and die out to 60...
