    Injector Pintle Question

    I've had a set of Venom Performance fuel injectors and one went bad. Talked with American Muscle and they sent me a new set. My old set had the single pintle design common to the EV1 style, but the new ones they sent me are EV1's but they have the 4 pintle design just like the EV6! Win! I took a...

    Fuel Injectors

    Hey, My 24lb EV1 injectors I got from Venom went bad and I want to upgrade to the EV6. I understand you can get these out of Navigators and stuff but I don't know how to identify that the injector is 24lb and hour. If anyone can tell me a list of some vehicles that come with 24lb an hour EV6...

    Multiple misfires, I need some help

    Did a compression test. Took all plugs out, cranked the engine for 5 compression strokes each. Cylinder 1-150psi 2-140 3-150 4-140 5-130 on 1st try. Sounded like it missed the last 2 compression strokes. 2nd try got 150 6-140 7-150 8-110 on 1st try. sounded like it missed the 1st compression...

    Anybody? I really need help here. I'm going to do a compression test but other than that I'm totally clueless.

    Multiple misfires, I need some help

    I do notice that I'm getting a lot of water in my exhaust. It's about 55 degrees out, engine is up to about 170 degrees, and I'm seeing steam and puddles of water at my exhaust.

    Multiple misfires, I need some help

    Just did that. Seemed to help a bit, and there were no codes until I held the RPM at 3000 for a couple seconds. Now it gave me P0171 and P1000.

    I've got a 96 GT. I'm getting spark to the plugs, but I didn't look for water.

    Multiple misfires, I need some help

    Here's the story, I know I did something stupid, don't flame me out for it because I need help. Yesterday, I was washing, waxing, and detailing my car. Did the engine bay by spraying it all off with water and wiping down all the black plastics (including my CAI) with tire shine. I put forth an...

    Tire and wheel help

    So, I got an offer for a set of 19x8.5 rims in front and 20x10.5 rims in rear for really cheap. I'm trying to find a set of drag radials or any kind of tire that will hook well on the strip period, but here's my problem. I have no clue what size tire to look for that would fit the rim. Also, you...

    Cooling fan wiring

    Hey! My stock cooling fan on my 96 GT seized up so I ordered an aftermarket dual motor cooling fan with 2 wires per fan. I want to be able to hook it up to the factory 3 prong connector so it'll operate like normal. Does anyone know what the 3 prongs on the connector are for, and have any...

    mustang manual transmission fluid

    Someone probably used gear oil and the ATF is picking up and mixing with the gear oil.

    Alternator?

    I honestly wouldn't trust a cell phone app. My alternator is fairly new and my tuner tells me I have around 13.7ish volts. 132k is a lot of miles for an alternator, I changed mine at around 135k, but I'm not sure if it was the original. I'd get a new alternator just for preventative maintenance...

    The unanimously hated "clunk" sound... I got it...

    Yeah, I'll have to get it up next weekend and look. I wish I had a lift. Right now I have my hands full with a parasitic draw problem.

    The unanimously hated "clunk" sound... I got it...

    Awesome! I noticed my left upper control arm was a bit loose, enough for me to rotate a bit. And when I did the lowering springs and dropped the axle down, I noticed all my bushings are shot. I'm in north west Indiana so we get a lot of snow and road salt. That helps ease my mind a bit because...

    Keyless entry problems

    When I got my car, the keyless entry was nowhere to be found. I had a remote, no module. Went to the junk yard and pulled one from a 98 V6. I figured it should fit in my 96 GT. It didn't. I cant even find the antenna connection to plug into the receiver. I think an aftermarket system was...

    The unanimously hated "clunk" sound... I got it...

    That sucks. I've always heard the 8.8 was a tough axle, especially on the Jeep forums. I remember one time I pulled into a parking lot full of snow, tried to turn and just went straight. Nailed a curb on the left front rim at at least 15-20mph. Never saw anything bent, still drives straight as...

    The unanimously hated "clunk" sound... I got it...

    Wouldn't a bent axle cause a lot of vibration? I drive a lot on highway and haven't noticed any vibration. On a positive note, she drove just fine today and I picked up a keyless entry module and driver side door hinges from the junk yard. I guess I'll have to start saving for a rear end rebuild...

    The unanimously hated "clunk" sound... I got it...

    That makes me feel safe lol. I haven't abused the car much. I've only done one burnout. I've floored it plenty of times but it's not even hitting 300hp. The 8.8 should hold fine. Should... I looked underneath it just now and noticed a couple small things. The top left control arm that attaches...

    The unanimously hated "clunk" sound... I got it...

    Update: I started the stang up this morning, let it idle a bit, ABS light is on. Drove it a little, still clunking, light went off for a bit, then came back on. Made a stop at a gas station, turned the car off. I came back, ABS light is off, no more clunking. Went to my bus stop to Lincoln Tech...
