I just filled my nitrous tank, 10lb bottle and they only filled it with 9 1/2 lbs. Its 68 degrees with high humidity and the tank was filled about 3 hours ago. It sounded like a a tire explosion and then covered the ground with a real creepy fog. The safety valve is 9 months old and the...

I just picked up a tranny tailshaft vibration dampner from a Mazda 929. It bolts to the tailshaft of the tranny and is a heavy metal plate with two large blocks of rubber. I used a piece of angle iron to bolt it to my T-5 tailshaft and just tested it out-it works great!! It greatly...

While driving tonight i smelled gas and pulled over and discovered a fuel injector leaking just under the fuel rail. When I wiggled the rail it sprayed gas out in a neat stream. While waiting on a tow I decided to twist/spin the injector around and when I started the car-no more leak! I was...

91 LX with H/C/I with 100hp nitrous. I've got 4.10's now. I've always had a vibe from the rear end, used to be BAD now its tolerable (normal solutions). I've developed some rear end noises recently along with needing the trac loc to be rebuilt. Now, I've read about the "critical speed"...

Just installed a 2 row Griffin Aluminum radiator. My car's been running hot since H/C/I install. I first replaced the stock one row with a 3 row replacement off e-bay. Worked fine until 90 degress or so and then the temp would creep to 215, even 230 once!! So far, so good, had the car idle...

I think most people go the opposite route but I like the louvered look. Can I put a 86 and earlier louvered 1/4 window on my 91? Who sells them? Thanks Andy

Quick question about the install. The nitrous Management unit has a vacuum line to the fuel pressure regulator and another to the intake manifold. The fuel pressure regulator has a line from a vacuum block to it. Do I remove this line completely, so that the fuel pressure rgulator gets...

Anybody use this: http://www.compperformancegroupstore...OUSACCESSORIES Seems like a good idea just for ease of installation. How would it affect the MAF? Does that matter? Any ideas?

The reason I ask is because I just changed the temp gauge sending unit to cure an inaccurate gauge but it appears that a surging idle problem and a stalling when shifted into neutral at speed problem have disappeared. I haven't quite enough to verify that they are gone but it seems awfully...

I have a rebuilt 306, AFR heads, moderately big cam. Should I cap the tube on the oil filler neck or connect it to the T/B? When I cap the oil filler tube and then remove the cap, I get a hissing/sucking sound. The car still has the stock pvc system and pvs is clear and screen looks...

What other cars does the Foxbody share its water pump pulley with? I've got underdrive pullies and am running hot and would like to go to the "pull a part" yard and grab a water pump pulley from another car.

1991m Mustang Hatch. I've got a Alpine H/U, Alpine amp for the Polk components in the front, Polk coaxials in the rear with a Kenwood Sub in the rear. I added a set of cheap twetters in the dash speaker location to raise the sound stage. They didn't sound great so I bought a set of...

I'm replacing the upper control arm bushings that are located in the axel housing. I bought a set of stock style (TRW brand) bsuhings from Advance auto parts. Do the stock style bushings require the old metal sleeve to stay in the axel housing?

Thought I'd pass along an idea I just finished on my car. I've read about a switch between the fuel pump for an anti-theft device but I have another version that others might like-especially AOD to T-5 conversion guys. Because the Neutral safety switch (NSS) on a AOD is no longer used on the...

Buy power seats! I've been chasing driveline vibes down for some time and just recently made another small improvement by installing a set of 03 Cobra seats in my 91 Hatch. The driver's side is powered and the various connections and linkages in the seat mechanism isolated the remaining...

I've been chasing various vibes and have drastically reduced most but still had the classic driveshaft vibe at 75 MPH. I bought a driveshaft balancer from balancemaster.com and installed it but it didn't work. All it did was change the sound/frequencyof the vibe. In addition, it has metal...

I replaced my door striker bolts last year and just discovered that there are two types/sizes of door striker bolts for Fords a metric and standard version, I bought the metric version last year. The correct type is 7/16"-14 (part- Help! #38448) and the part of the striker that "catches"...

Been chasing an apparent sunroof leak for awhile. Replaced the sunroof seal, checked the drain tubes, resealed the front plastic "cups/catches" for the sunroof, no luck. I thought maybe its the windshield. I was skeptical because the headliner was wet and the leak was collecting at the...

I just got the car (1991 Hatch 5 speed )aligned and found out that the rear axle is "out of toe" by 3/16." The torque boxes have been shredded and repaired but it appears that they were welded while still slightly bent. 1. Should I get adjustable upper and lower control arms in order to...
