I got it out! I used the vise grips on the key trick. The new key cylinder was broke again when I pulled it out. Then I took the rear of switch assm. out and found that it has wear and was broken also. I am going to have to replace the whole thing. Thanks for your help.

The switch is in the car and will not come out. It is a brand new switch?

I can turn the key. It is not jambed. But it will turn all the way around and does not have the spring return like its suppose to?

I purchased the magazine, the article was ok, but it didn't explain what to do if the cylinder wouldnt come out? Anyone have any other ideas? I cannot get it out? Thanks

My old ignition cylinder was worn out, it took quite some time, but I got it out. When it came out , it came out in pieces. I then purchased a new Scott Drake ignition cylinder with a new key. I installed it and it went in ok, but now the spring return will notwork properly. I tried to remove it...

Ok I found the throttle lever on the trans. was sticking and not letting the lever to return to its idle position. Now I have 0 psi at idle, but now I cannot get 35 psi with the block tool in. Even if I pull the cable all the out, the most I can get is 28 psi. Would it be possible I have a...

I installed an AOD in my 66 Mustang with a Lokar TV cable. I have a pressure gauge hooked to the tv port on the right side of the trans. center port and I have the cable block tool to install on the cable to make the adjustment. I have followed the Lokar instructions. It says, while in neutral...

I have found out that my engine was not level and the right side was lower that the left and was off by about 1/4". I shimmed up the right side motor mount a quarter of an inch and it now has clearance for my steering. It still comes close to hitting the starter, but that is only while turning...

I do not know what pan I ordered. The description said it was a stock pan for 65-66 Mustangs. It has now been to long since I purchased it off of e-bay. I cannot even find who I bought it from. Is it possible its for a later model Mustang? Did any of the Mustangs come with a 7 qt. pan? Now I...

I purchased a new oil pan off of e-bay for my 66 Mustang. It said it was the stock oil pan for Mustangs. I installed it, not thinking it might be a little different in size. I put in 5 qts. of oil and my dipstick reads low. It barely touches the stick. I then compared my measurements between the...

Here are some sites tha that helped me on my AOD swap. I am just finishing mine at this time. http://www.becontrols.com/tech/tech.htm http://www.ronmorrisperformance.com/ http://www.mustangmonthly.com/howto/33598/index.html http://www.lokar.com/

I installed a new quick steer idler arm and pitman arm on my 66 Mustang. It has manual steering. I believe the quick steers came on the Shelbys. Anyway I installed mine and the steering now seems to be to close to the oil pan. At the same time I have done an AOD swap. Would doing the trans. swap...

I just ended up double nutting it. And it works fine.

I have a 66 Mustang with a 302 with an AOD trans. I am installing the aftermarket shifter rod kit so that I can use the stock C-4 shifter. My question is what type of nut goes on the selector shaft that holds the shifter lever and throttle lever on? I tried a regular nut and flat washer, but it...

Got the H-Pipe on. I mounted one side down tight and then had to pry the other pipe over to align it up and then tighten it down. Now I have a rubbing issue to deal with. It rubs on the AOD trans. crossmember. At least it is on and now I can get the car to the exhaust shop and have it modified...

Is there different companys that make exhaust h-pipes? And is there one better than the other as far as quality goes? I am not sure who makes Mustang Unlimiteds exhaust parts?

Did Ford build different Hi-Po manifolds for the 289? I purchased a set used off of e-bay and installed them on my 66 Mustang 289 and the h-pipe I purchased from Mustangs Unlimited will not fit. I confirmed the h-pipe is for Hi-Po exhaust. I thought maybe my manifolds are for a different...

I am doing a conversion from a 4 speed to an AOD. I havent seen any trans. cooler lines available for this swap. Does anyone make the lines for purchase or do I need to make my own? If I make my own, is it better to start with the factory C-4 lines and then fabricate them? Thanks

On a 66 Mustang. Would a measurement from the center of the groove on the pulleys to the flat engine side of the radiator be an accurate measurement for pulley alignment on all the pulleys?

My 66 was purchased with a 68 302 already in it. It was also converted over to have 66 factory a/c. I noticed when I was replacing my timing chain that none of the belts align up correctly. Someone has tried to make brackets, but they were not made very well. Also the crank pulley was not...
