    Strange A/C problem

    it's freon, just saying. he also never said how long he came to a stop. you can come to a stop for 30 seconds and it won't overheat but a/c will have a noticeable raise in temp if the fan was bad. you don't need the fan for driving becasue air is forced through condensor and radiator to cool...

    Strange A/C problem

    that clicking is probably normal, mine makes a noise. you need to go to autozone and rent some gauges. you must know what is happening on both sides of the compressor. if not you can overfill and lock your compressor up indefinantly. don't trust the plastic bottle gauge. high should be between...

    New fuel system, need advice

    i'm sure you can configure any pump to work with non return but for how long. i have yet to see a pump that is not stock actually designed for non return. they are built different. you can use the old style but for how long before they go out from being dead headed all the time.

    New fuel system, need advice

    Plastic intake= garbage:mad:

    i agree, the plastic intake sucks and i think it was a bad idea because i have broken 2 intake at the back of the intakes where the heater hose connects. however, air gets hot. just cuz it's moving means nothing especially in a blown car. how do you think the air gets so hot. also after my 2nd...

    New fuel system, need advice

    holy hell you still using stock pump and injectors. get 42# and 03 aviator fuel pump. it's better than the focus pump if you have returnless. not sure what year you are talking about. if you have return style fuel system then just use a 255lph. and get a tune

    I hope this is not a crack.

    no the hose clamps on to the back of the intake. the nipple is the 1/2 inch port on the back of the intake. i know, they are known to break these and crack in the front but screw the plastic intake, replace with all metal.
