    Car Wont Crank

    Thanks everyone for your help. My buddy the mechanic came over today. All he had to do was hook up a jumper cable from the negative post of the battery to the metal backplate of the solenoid, and the car cranked and caught right away. He says "just like I thought, bad grounds". He's a good guy...

    Car Wont Crank

    The solenoid makes a buzzing sound. Not like a low buzz, but a loud zzzzzzzzzzzt. The starter does not crank at all. I'll check the grounds out with the ohm setting of the meter, thanks.

    Car Wont Crank

    Jumping the neutral safety switch made the buzzing sound that it makes when the key is put to crank. I get continuity from the block to the body of the car, and I get continuity from the hot wire to the starter and the intake, so the grounds are fine along with the starter wire. Battery voltage...

    Car Wont Crank

    Jumping the two large lugs does nothing. Maybe I'll relocate the ground. I'll try jumping that little post too. Thanks.

    Car Wont Crank

    The car is being a huge pain in the ass lately, I finally get it all buttoned up after installing a new starter, changing the head gaskets, and replacing the intake gaskets, and it is still doing this. When I put the key in "crank" all I get is a loud buzzing sound, presumably from the...

    Mine came with 3.55's. Dean, go to http://www.gtamc.com/forums/? and sign up, check out the classifieds. You might find one cheap there. It's a Mustang website for people in the Greater Toronto Area.

    Will 7.5 inch rear axles fit in an 8.8?

    $600 CAD is not cheap. I live less than an hour away from you and bought a freshly rebuilt complete rear for $300.

    Tire Size Required?

    I know nothing of all these tire size formulas and whatnot. I have a set of 14" rims. I know they are small, but they are different and I would like to keep them. I would like wider tires for the rear, but dont know what size to order. I was thinking something like a 255/xx/R14. I dont know what...

    Bought Rebuilt 8.8" (Need Info)

    I bought a rebuilt 8.8" rear end out of an '89 5.0. The guy says that it was rebuilt by him with 3.73's, the stock axles, new seals, and all that. It is painted black, and still has the factory cover on the back. He says that he checked the backlash and all that crap. The only problem is, he...

    2.3L EFI to 5.0L Carb

    I dropped my tank and replaced the pump with a rubber hose. Reaches down to where the pump pickup used to go, and has a filter on the end. The other end of the fuel line is hooked to the mechanical pump on the motor.

    Leaky oil pan??

    Might just need new gaskets. If you need an oil pan, you can get them almost anywhere, be it used from a scrap yard or brand new from almost any parts store.

    2.3L EFI to 5.0L Carb

    You can leave the harness in, but it will be a mess. Take the computer out of the passenger side kick panel, then pull the harness out through the firewall. Then all you need is one 12v wire to power your ignition. I did the 2.3L to carbed 351W swap, so if you need any more help, let me know.
