    Odd Steering Wheel Electrical Problem

    OK, quick question for those of you that have a clue about electrical systems in cars (which I don't) This is for a 2002 GT... It seems as though my steering wheel accessories have lost power. I noticed it a few days ago when my "air bag" light came on (never a good thing), and then I tried to...

    Putting it in R while driving

    I used to have a V6 auto and did this going about 50 mph (When I was much younger and way dumber). The rear wheels locked up, the car spun completely out, and the car actually shut itself off with the emergency fuel cut-off. Well I sold the car to my sister about a year after that and there...

    Will a Harley F150 Engine fit ?

    Sorry to hear that, I was interested in seeing how this one went. I can't imagine how big of a hood one would need for a s/c 5.4 under there.

    Here's mine... 265/35-18 in the back 245/40-18in the front... the fronts are replicas (18x9) and the rear are Ford Racing (18x9.5) The ones from Ford Racing (You can buy them from TireRack.com) are much higher quality than the replicas from wheelreplicas.com

    Window tint poll

    The guy who did my tint on the back said that he couldn't put tint there without voiding the tints warranty, so what he did was take a sheet of black 3M vinyl and put it on the inside of the window at the top and it looks seamless unless you're right on top of it.

    How to break a weld?

    Ok the Dremel magically fixed itself, I used the grinder attachment and ground the weld down flush then popped a screwdriver into a small gap and it popped free. After 2 hours with a hand file and numerous chisel attempts I prayed for the dremel to miraculously work and thank God it did. I was...

    How to break a weld?

    I had a feeling that would be the answer. :( It's a VERY small weld so it shouldn't take too long to file down and I have all day. Thanks though.

    How to break a weld?

    OK, here's the deal. One of those magnificently large magnaflow SS exhaust tips on my car sticks out about 1-1.5" further than the other. I figured, i'll just go move it back. Turns out the guy who did the install, made a mall weld on the pipes to keep it from rattling. This would be a good...

    Magnaflow catback installed!! One Question...

    I had the same problem, it clunked when I went over speed bumps etc. and I got back under it and i hadnt tightened the tip down good enough and that little buit of flexibility it had caused it to hit the rear bumper. Tightebed down the allen screw and it was good to go.

    Tune needed?

    wondering the same thing... a/f seems screwed by the l/t headers. Running super rich cause of damn o2 sensors. Not trying to hijack thread but can they turn off your 02 sensors with a tune so I dont get the damn check engine light? Code is from the front 02 sensors because longtubes moved 'em...

    Fuel Smell Inside Car

    My car used to stall when under heavy braking (not the best time to lose power) but it stopped doing it after a month or so after the first time... really weird but it just went away :shrug: As for the gas smell, I can't help ya there, do you have any mods or a possible exhaust leak?

    Which Oil is the King of the Hill?

    I'd like to know this as well. And also, I'm going to be switching to synthetic in a week or so, do I need to do anything besides just switch it out? I know I can never go back after I go synthetic but thats all I know.
