    CD ERROR?

    Had a similar issue about 2 months ago. I have the Mach 460 sound system and it locked up while changing from cd to cd. Locked up and wouldn't do anything except throw the CD error code. Never made the time to try and fix it and after about a month, it suddenly decided to start working...

    Do I worry too much?

    :shrug: Actually, mine froze up about 6 months ago. Took it off and cleaned it up with some carb cleaner, put it back on and it purrs like a kitten. Took about 10 minutes. Haven't had a single problem with it since then.:nice:

    Replacement Sun Visors

    If I had spent that much i would have made him redo the stitching but at $80 for the pair I figured I couldn't complain too much. Still looks better than the torn and faded original ones.

    98 GT wont start after sitting

    If you aren't hearing the fuel pump cycle and all the fuses check out it is most likely the fuel pump IMO. I just changed out the pump in my 01 GT because it crapped out. Not too difficult or time consuming.

    Replacement Sun Visors

    Well, I found an upholstery shop to recover them for a reasonable price ($80 for both of them). He had a hard time keeping the stitches straight but other than that I am very happy with them. Here are the before and after pics. What do you guys think of them with the vinyl cover?

    picture request please help!!!

    What setback/offset at the wheels? Also, do you have any problems with the wider tires in front tracking or picking up the ruts in the road? Your setup is exactly what I was thinking about putting on my stang. Thanks

    no start

    Starter would be my guess. A lot of times after sitting for a while a bit of corrosion will form on the armature and keep the brushes from making good contact. Some times a whack with a hammer will jar the starter enough to get it working temporarily.

    Dumped exhaust clip

    Personally I love the way my Magnapacks sound, even with the stock manifolds and catted H-pipe

    PI Intake swap postmortem

    Thanks for the info. I was thinking about doing the PI swap but wasn't sure if it was worth the hassle.:shrug: Does anybody have any dyno numbers to confirm what the real gains are with the PI swap?

    ViS Carbon Fiber parts

    Does anyone know about the quality of the parts from ViS? I just saw this carbon fiber bar for my vert but it appears to be a new product and I was wondering if anyone had bought any of their products and if so, how was the fit/installation. 99-04 Ford Mustang 2dr Carbon Fiber Styling Bar...

    Replacement Sun Visors

    Got an estimate yesterday from the upholstery shop to recover my visors: $50 each to recover them with the original fabric $90 each to recover them with leather that matches the seats After looking at the visors again I think I will just get the leather and recover them myself. Doesn't look...

    Quality is job #1

    Don't have an issue with them being a global corporation or making money in foreign markets. I have an issue with them claiming that quality is their top priority and then putting cheaply made crap on the market and refusing to resolve problems when they inevitably pop up. I don't expect...

    Quality is job #1

    Yeah I probably could have gotten some aftermarket headers but I had the equipment to fix then right for free (other than my time) and at least that way I knew it was done right. I wasn't implying that GM is any better or has any less quality issues but I do know that if I gave my customers...

    Quality is job #1

    Unfortunately you are probably SOL as Ford doesn't like to take care or warranty issues even when the cars are actually under warranty still (see the thread about the issues with the TR-3650 trans in the tech forum). Quality hasn't been job 1 at Ford in about 40 years as far as I can tell. I...

    Secret Incantations for GT front brakes ?

    Most of the "secret incantations" I use while doing brakes involve a lot of 4 letter words at high volume while throwing wrenches and hammers. :bang: Works every time :cool:

    Replacement Sun Visors

    I was thinking about asking the upholstery shop about recovering them with leather to match the seats. Should last a lot longer than the cloth.

    Replacement Sun Visors

    Not yet but I have a good shop nearby so I guess I will have to take them over there and ask them. I thought about making some carbon fiber ones but don't have much free time right now
