    Diagnosis, anyone?

    Ok, I admit it, its true. My GT has so many problems, its absurd. But here's the latest and the greatest... Any advice, tips, or feedback would be great. And by advice, I don't mean "sell the car" because I'm way too attached to her to do that. We just did plugs/wires/cap/rotor/oil...

    Frying Light Switches

    Heya, another quick question - I've been having problems with my headlight flickering and stuff for a while, and at times I've been able to smell burning. Now, my headlights don't come on at all, so I removed the switch only to see that the grey connector is cooked and various terminals on...

    Long Tubes and T5s

    Quick question - Way back when I was working at the Jiffy Lube in this area we had a very built 306-powered blown Mustang come in for tranny fluid, and I seem to remember there being a problem with his Long-Tube headers getting in the way of the fill or maybe the drain plug. Does anyone have...

    Umm... Gas pedal grinding!?

    ok.. I've been having a lot of issues with my power. I discovered that I had a bad spark plug wire, replaced it and now my horsepower is mostly back. I would like to see if its fully back but my car makes the oddest grinding sounds I've ever heard. Whenever I press the gas pedal down past...

    Fuel or Electrical issue?

    Ok guys, I have posted a couple times about my current problem and have recieved a number of useful replies. However, I think I have got the problem nailed down more specifically now. The car is SLOW right now. REALLY, REALLY SLOW. As in, I got :owned: by a stock 4-door automatic Mitsu...

    Anyone in Northern CT got some spare time?

    Hey there~ Just wondering if anyone in the Manchester, CT area has some free time to perhaps swing by and take a look at my car. My mechanic is baffled and we can't seem to nail down the problem. Cash is tight so I can't afford to just replace sensors and whatnot until the problem goes...

    Timing?

    hey guys~ I'd been having a problem with the car running rough and the plugs/wires were the likely suspects. A friend of mine adjusted the timing and replaced plugs/wires/cap/rotor in an effort to solve the problem, and it has straightened out a bit. However, I still feel a rough idle and a...

    I might need tranny help soon.

    Fellas~ Ok, here's the question. I have a T-5 (still the original one) in my car and its really starting to worry me. The 'stang is my daily driver (my only car) so its well-being is not only a concern of mine, but its crucial. Also, my budget for repairs/mods is awful, so I have to be...

    Some head questions ;-)

    Ok, a few head questions. Cylinder heads that is, get your minds outta the gutter :banana: I need to do my head gaskets so obviously my stock heads are going to be coming off for a brief time. Is it worth it to have any work done to the stock heads? Money is tight so I can't afford real...

    Pulsing... Any thoughts?

    As the subject dictates ^^ I am feeling a rather large difference in power that seems to be coming on randomly. At times, I have a lot of kick but it really bogs down at other times. The weird thing is, the motor is revving normally no matter how sluggish its feeling. Even when its pulling...

    Thunderbird alternator?

    Heya fellas- I've been considering swapping to an electric fan of late and I've heard a lot of talk about the 3G alternator. I have a '90 T-Bird (Not an SC) that's got fried heads and transmission and is on its way to the junkyard this week. Is the stock Thunderbird alternator a 3G or is...

    Different 5L Conversion Question

    Hey there- I just found an '88 Lincoln MkVII LSC at a friend's house sitting in the back with a busted rear end. It has a 5.0HO, 5 lugs, and 4-wheel disc brakes. My question is this - What brake/wheel parts can I swap onto my '88 GT? Are those bolt patterns the same as later 5 lug setups or...

    A/Cs and other things

    Ok, a couple questions for those of you who have had experience with these cars. I'm still working on having a good working knowledge of the ins and outs, hence these questions. When I went to order a serpentine belt for my '88 GT, there was an option on the shop's list for Mustangs without...

    Wheel Size questions

    Heyas- I have an 88 GT and I'm potentially getting my hands on some Cobra R rims, and due to costs I'd like to stay at 17". Currently, my stock-sized tires on the turbines rub at full lock for some reason on both sides, I can't help but think that this isn't normal. I'm just curious at to...
