Hey all. Took the stang out for a quick 20 minute drive and about 5 mins from home the speedo needle just went straight south. Kind of jumped around for a min or two and then it just hung straight down. Now it doesn't move at all. The odometer does work though. I'm thinking this is a...

Can't seem to find this answer anywhere..... I currently have a crank but no start situation... Slowly working through the checklist (thanks jrichker). Is there supposed to be fuel pressure when you turn the ignition on but the engine is off? I can hear the fuel pump whine and start up, but...

So I have reinstalled the trans and clutch two times now and am still messing it up somehow. Hoping someone here can help me.... I started many months ago with putting in a new clutch, motor/tranny mounts, exhaust and various other little things. The first time I put everything back together...

Hey guys, hoping someone has some advice to help me.... I dropped my transmission to try and fix an oil pan leak and now I'm putting it all back together. I got the transmission back in and now I'm trying to get the crossmember back in and it will NOT line up... I had this problem a few...

So I just put the car back together after replacing the clutch, oil pan gasket and the rear main seal (and several other things, but those are what are relevant). And of course I am leaking oil. SOOOO disappointing to put that much time and energy into something and it still be wrong...

Does anyone know where this screw goes? I've had this car apart for a couple months now and am finally putting it all back together, and while I labeled most every other bolt/screw that came out, I didn't on this one. It does seem to be a unique shape. I had two screws left, one I thought...

I'm looking for a new impact gun and was wondering what is supposed to be a good one? I have the crap one that came with the compressor from Home Depot.... it won't break any bolts on it's own.... I have to loosen everything first before it will do anything... anyways, what are you guys using...

Can anyone tell me where the oil leak is if I am dripping from the bell housing spacer plate? Attached are some pics... The thing is, I JUST replaced the rear main seal and the oil pan gasket, and I haven't even filled the car back up with oil yet or of course run the engine.... And in case it...

Finally making progress on getting this thing put back together and have hit yet another snag.... the transmission mount and cross member won't line up and bolt in. I have put new poly motor mounts in, got a poly transmission mount, and also poly bushings in the ends of the cross member. I...

Can anyone help with this? I have taken the whole front suspension apart and now I'm trying to put it back together. I have the LCA in, put the spindle back on the LCA, have the strut in, and now I'm trying to tighten the castle nut on the ball joint stud but it only goes so far and then the...

Can someone please help me figure this out? I've never used a tap before and I have need to tap an already existing hole in the intake. I went out and bought a tap set and a brass fitting to put in the hole. Attached is a picture of the fitting and the harbor freight tap. The fitting says...

So I'm trying to get the car reassembled and I noticed that on the underside of the upper intake there are two metal fitting things that are supposed to have hoses connected to them. One of the fittings is corroded and broken and I won't be able to get a hose on there. Can anyone tell me what...

So I had a machine shop press new prothane bushings into my front lower control arms a few weeks ago. Went to reinstall today and on the drivers side they put the bushings on the wrong side. (The left and right bushings are different sizes) The control arm won't go back on while the passenger...

Anyone have any tips on how to get the lower spring isolator on the spring? I got it this far (see pic) but can't seem to get it any further... okay to just cut the rest off?

So I bought the whole Prothane kit for my 88 Saleen... Only a couple of the included kits came with any of the grease. Am I to assume that I don't need to grease anything for the parts that didn't include any grease? For instance, the front coil spring isolator stuff has no grease included...

Got my transmission out of the car and the bottom is covered in grease and oil...is it okay to flip it upside down to clean underneath it? Thanks.

Hoping someone has some advice that will help me out.... Trying to remove the transmission from the bellhousing and was on the last bolt (the top one on the drivers side) and I have started to round the bolt. Using a 15mm socket if you apply too much pressure it just slips and the socket...

Hey all.... looking to replace the original shocks/struts on my 1988 Saleen and was wondering what to go with? Can I pick any combo that fits an 88 or is there something special/weird with the Saleens? Wondering the same thing about an alignment.... can you just take it anywhere or is there...

Hey guys, I am looking for a body shop in the San Antonio area to fix my 88 Saleen. Had it parked trying to sell it and someone hit it so hard that it bent all door handle/lock stuff and now you can't even open the door... thanks to that idiot. Anyways, can anyone recommend somewhere that...
