    Water In Oil After Intake Manifold Gasket Change

    I did use the 93334 gasket set and gray rtv on the water jackets. I might have had too much rtv around the water passages, used a bead instead of smearing it. Thats might be the problem. I also didnt retorque after the first heat cycle. Can you get to the bolts with the upper on? Anyway...

    Water In Oil After Intake Manifold Gasket Change

    Intake manifold was leaking oil on the ends so decided to replace the gasket. Used Fel-Pro gaskets with the end seals and sealant where the heads meet the block and around the water passages. Everything went back together fine so changed the oil and went for a short drive. Noticed there was...

    Loose Steering Column, Tried Usual Fixes

    Got a new Fox, 91 GT with 40k on it and its pretty much like a new car but the steering column is loose. Not the actual steering, there is no play, the actual column moves up and down a bit. Steering shaft & rag joint are good, all 4 9/16 nuts that mount the column to the car are tight, and...

    Convertible top squeaking in rear

    Finally got the front of the top that sits on the windshield to be nice and quiet, but there are still some high pitched squeaks coming from the rear. Ive look around back there and cant really tell what it is. Im sure many other have been through this, any suggestions appreciated.

    Power window question, bad switch?

    This is the wifes car, 90 GT Convertible. She went to put the window up and it stopped halfway, no noise from the motor at all, banging the panel didnt help. When I got home I took a look and noticed all other windows working fine except driver side. When I hit the switch the volt gauge...

    Installing motor mount questions

    They really are a PITA to do. Took me 5 hours lying on my back to do them in my 96 Cobra. Didnt drop the K member, just lifted the engine. As far as labor is concerned, I would think someone who knows what hes doing and has a proper lift could do the job in about 2-3 hours. So the $233...

    1996 cobra front brake rattle help

    He forgot to put the anti-rattle clips on the pads before he slid them into the brackets. You can get them at any part store for about $10. They will either have them listed as anti-rattle clips or simply front disc brake hardware.

    1996 cobra vibrating and noise at idle.

    Thats exactly what my car felt like before I replaced the motor mounts. My money is on the mounts. You can always see the engine move when they are bad, I would go ahead and replace them then go from there. Good Luck.

    whats best motor mounts to buy 4 1996 cobra

    I just did mine last fall and went with Motorcraft mounts. They were dirt cheap (about $80 for both) and they will hold up much better than the Parts Store crap. For a job thats such a PITA, its worth getting good ones the first time.

    1996 Cobra - Cold Air Intake

    You really arent going to gain anything but looks under the hood by buying a CAI for the 96-98 Cobra's. Just remove the air silencer and put a K&N cone in the stock location and you'll be fine. Really no power to gain there.

    Where to find 94-98 REAL OEM Cobra Headlights

    I looked into this about a month ago and from Ford they are around $250 per side, plus the $90 or so per side for the side markers. So around $700 for OEM headlights. It would be nice to have them but I would just go with the repros at this point, they're not that bad.

    Bone stock 90 GT - 10mpg??

    Yea, Ive used Seafoam before, ill probably do it before the next oil change. It funny that the thermostat was mentioned, the temp gauge needle hardly gets up 1/4 of the gauge, even when its fully warmed up. I know these gauges are rarely accurate, guess ill hook up an external gauge and see...

    Bone stock 90 GT - 10mpg??

    The car most likely doesnt even get into closed loop by the time she shuts it off, especially in this colder weather with longer warm-up times. Probably will change the O2's, they might even be the originals...

    Bone stock 90 GT - 10mpg??

    Thanks for the input guys, pulled the codes (none) and did a compression test. As for the injectors, if one was leaking that would be quite noticeable. Everything looked great so I decided to take a little drive. Topped off the tank and drove the 40 miles to my dads house to pick up some...
