Again hope it is cool to ask Cougar questions here since they are so close to stangs. But hey I just bought a 68 cougar from a guy. Runs and starts perfect but it over heats. I feel pressure building in the top hose so I thought thermostat. Changed that and the hose and I am still experiencing...

Sorry if this is ill placed or the wrong place to ask. But I am buying a 68 cougar and the gentleman is saying it came stock with a 351 cleveland. According to my knowledge and decoding the vin that was not a option. But not to say one was not put in there at some point, how can I identify the...

Hey guys, I am looking at buying a short block and some gt40 heads for my 94 cobra. I am curious what is a good price I should expect to pay for them? Just want to go in with some knowledge. Also the short block is from a regular 95 GT. Would that be the same as my 94 Cobra (or compatible)? Any...

Hey guys Just wondering if any of you can recommend a good replacement clutch for a 94 Cobra, 306, will be used primarily for just cruising and regular driving (no racing). Also recommendations on a place to purchase is appreciated. Thanks

Ok, I had been posting about 94 cobra with various issues. Well finally took the motor to a machine shop/mechanic shop and they motor is shot (lots of slop in the pistons, bent valve... various other things). Now my question is, in order to get this motor back right it is being recommended a...

Hey guys, my 94 cobra is experiencing some issues with blow-by. I never really noticed until now but smoke coming from dip stick. My question is, I been having some issues with bad idle and when the car warms up it will shut down and be hard to start/wont start until cold again. Could the...

Hey Guys I have a 94 cobra that starts rough or takes many cranks. This leads to the battery dragging or draining rather quickly. My mechanic is saying my battery is not good enough or does not have enough CCA for my car. But when I take that battery out and put it in my 65 ford truck that has...

On my 94 cobra the steering rack is leaking something vicious. Can any of you guys make a recommendation for the best brand to get and the most reasonably priced place to get a replacement steering rack (I do not really want to get one from the junkyard)? Any input or advice is greatly appreciated.

My 94 cobra is experiencing some weird issues. The car runs rough as it stands and when it warms up it will try to cut off and if it does wont start until car cools off a little. But what is stranger when the MAF sensor is unplugged it will run better, but the end result is the symptom before...

Moved to the correct section..... (94-95 tech), sorry guys. My 94 cobra is experiencing some weird issues. The car runs rough as it stands and when it warms up it will try to cut off and if it does wont start. But what is stranger when the MAF sensor is unplugged it will run better, but the...

Sorry I hope this does not ruffle feathers. But.... I just bought a 1968 ford truck, long bed. I was wondering if anyone knew of any good sites to discuss these trucks and or sites where I can buy parts for this truck? Something a like a 50 resto type site. Again I apologize posting here. But...

I am looking for a used AOD and I know there are no guarantees when doing this. But are there some outward things I can inspect for when looking at one? Also I am gonna try to tackle the install by myself. I have some mechanical skills but never tackled a tranny and most of my stuff is self...

Is there a way to open a vert trunk from the inside? The glove buttons are missing and I do not have a key to the trunk. Another question. On the vert doors, the trim that has the outside dew wipes. Are those replaceable by themselves? If so from where can I get these parts new?

Is it as simple as it looks? Any tips, advice, know how's? Per some of the suggestions given here about the distributor being my potential problem (rough idle, non starting after being warm and shutting off). I am looking to replace it with a parts store stock replacement. And just wondering...

Ok this may be a little premature, as I have yet to receive my OBD1 scanner to run the codes as suggested by members here (Summit says will be here Monday). But in the meantime I wanted to ask a couple questions. After doing some reading here, I decided to check to see if my TFI module was bad...

I was wondering is it possible to have potential trouble codes in the car computer without the check engine light being on? Also which code scanner do you guys recommend? (This will be personal use, if you have links to the scanner that would be great)

Hey folks I have a 94 cobra, and it has been told to me that I have gt40x (SVO) heads. How would I go about verifying this? Is there a casting number or something on them? Also would I have to remove the heads to find the identification marks/number?

I have noticed that my Cobra runs a little rough. The car does have a tfs stage 1 cam in it and gt40x heads. Other than that it is stock. The rough idle I am told could be due to the cam and needing a tune. But the bigger issue is that once the car reaches operating temp and the thermostat opens...

Ok I have a 95 Cobra that is stock. But the charging system is not working correctly. Things I have looked at: Battery is brand new. And had it tested when I bought it. Took alternator off and had it tested and it can back good. Looked at all the connectors for alternator and they look...
