    riced out mach 1

    IMO...the taillights and "mach z" have to go... the rear wing is not that bad but I am more of a fan of the original wing. That being said...the tailights alone are cause enough to do "pain.....you will lots of pain....pain!"

    I was getting ready to do my t-stat and coolant flush on my 03 Mach1 and cant get the bleeder valve to move with a 1/4" ratchet put in the hole. As a matter of fact I have already snapped one off in the hole and had to dig the tip out!!! :bang: :bang: I need to get this out before morning...

    Am I running hot?

    that is correct...I did not have the a/c or heat on. The reason I even mentioned it was because the heat would help cool the engine and the a/c would help heat up the engine and run the fan non-stop. This is important because the fan was running nonstop w/o the a/c and has not since. I just...

    Am I running hot?

    on some days you swear some one poored bleach in the water. I'm thinking about at least buying drinking water in gallon jugs. Or maybe getting a filter to put on the hose to cut down on it because it also spots cars real bad.

    Am I running hot?

    :jaw: I think my head just exploded!! :owned: Well, I didnt do the swap out last night due to family plans but will most likely be doing it Saturday morning. But you seem to have a handle on the science side of things...how bad would tap water be if it contains a LOT of chlorine in it...

    Am I running hot?

    thank you for the info...but how do you flush the system w/o leaving non-distilled water in the system? I know how to do a flush on an old car with a hose but I have never done one on a Mod.

    Am I running hot?

    update: I just contacted Steve @ Tousley Ford and found out that the 03-04 Cobra's and Mach 1's use the same 180 t-stat STOCK!! He didn't believe it either so he went back and pulled one and it is stamped 180. Woohoo!! So I have ordered a new t-stat, o-ring, and radiator cap w/...

    Am I running hot?

    ok..right now an aftermarket gauge is not an option. But I can check the temp idling with the laser temp gun and it tells me what temp the water is. On another note... I went to Pep Boys last night to buy the 180 t-stat and they dont even list one for my car at all. Do the 4v and 2v use...

    Am I running hot?

    So your saying this isnt running hot? My GT never did this but I dont know everything the previous owner did to the Gt. It just scared the crap out of me when I saw the gauge going up and there was nothing I could do about it. I feel a different t-stat and coolant flush w/water wetter going...
