Well I changed my plugs today and the old ones looked great. If my car was runnig rich from having bad o2 sensors wouldn't it show on the plugs? I mean they were whiteish which makes me think its not runnig rich at all. Could something be dragging the car down i checked the brakes and nothing is...

No it was a shop I had a code and i took it in to get it scanned and my MAF had a fuzz ball on it because my air filter wasn't in right. Is there a way to clean the o2s? And the 5.0 will lay down the labor day burn out :D

Changed my oil about 300 miles ago and I only run BP and citgo if I have too.Wouldn't bad o2 sensors give a code? I had the car scanned not to long about and they said the o2 sensors were a little weak but still good and that was less then 4k miles ago. can you change just the front ? I have...

Yeah it should be the same. Seafoam yeah i planned to pick some of that up too. reset the pcm you just discount the battery for a hour or something right?

Thanks I'm going to do plugs tomorrow as well as fuel filter. Whats a good gap for the 4.6? Also this is :OT: but my friend has a 99 grand marquis and was wondering what his gap should be he can't find any books on it.

fuel filter no i haven't changed it. air filter is a k&n and its clean and I don't smash it

I have a 96' ford thundebird with the 4.6. And my gas mileage is horrible sometihng like 13mpg city/highway average. Its been bad for a while but with the prices going up I need to make an adjustment. I know I'm not going to get great mileage but I checked the .gov site and i should get 18 city...

tickets come in tomorrow(weekend suite tickets) :banana: I'll be there saturday and sunday. Not sure if i'll bring my car though, Its not show quality and not track ready yet.

My friends old GT he traded for a Vette, I Know :fuss: . so that picture is not the great, its off the dealers site where he traded it 465RWHP on a very safe tune around 10.5:1 A/F mixture

I know i should just fix it but you know i did i changed the trans seal and it still leaks. yoke is perfect output shaft no play oiled yoke when...

Looking for some info on changing the rear seal on my t5z. I know i drop the drive shaft will i be able to tap in a new seal at that point or should i remove the tail shaft? I'd apperciate if someone can give me some steps and pointers on what to expect while doing this. Thanks

Fixed I'm sorry I doubted the distributor theory. You were all right the car ran for just over 2 hours with no problem. Thanks I also figured out the check engine light was a unplugged map sensor. So i have a running car knock on wood :banana:

Ok I can not take this car anymore after I try a new distributor I will be done and need a guy in the chicagoland area. So who is the best I will travel a little but nothing over an hour drive. I live basically downtown chicago. Here is the problem any Chicago land mechanic on here want to give...

I still haven't tried the distributer but I changed the computer with no luck. I also can not get the digital code scanner to hook up the computer. This time when the car shut off i check and both wires going to the coil had 12v

Well about the engine losing oil pressure the starter still spins the motor so i doubt its that. About the pickup coil would this pervent the coil from sending spark to the distributor? when we tested spark we did it between the coil and distributor and we got no spark

put on the 24lbs MAF and a bad alt was in my mind but when the car died today i tried jumping it with my chargers jump start. The original owner told me it was giving a lot of codes that some made no sense it was giving codes for like the o2 sensors and tps **** that is brand new. I need to get...

Ok well we thought we had it but we don't. We hooked up a gauges its not fuel its spark for sure. Now here is what we have tried: New TFI New coil took off the MSD box hooked up stock Ignition ( this made a big change and we thought we had it. Car ran smoother and instead of dying out after...

Well I plan too hook up a gauge this week to test it My friends and I thought if you hear it it is probably working. It is a new pump I bought the car from one of my best friends I helped him build some of it he got the 05 itch and I got this car for a good deal just bought it knowing it wasn't...

That is very likely but two things turn me away from that when the car shuts off and won't start I still hear the fuel pump kicking on. also the fuel pump has less then 500 miles on it I know it could just be bad
