thankyou thankyou thankyou!!

how do you like the AGR rack? i m about to start day 2 battling the pinch bolt connection- there has to be procedure outlined somewhere, just not in any manual i have read. my rack came from summit with crushed lines and rusted threads-just got no time to ship it back, trying to make it work

for drilled rotors, i was told i HAD TO use ceramic- is this the truth? And, any recommendations as to brand- EBC, Hawk , or Wagner? Thanks.

A year ago I bought a BBK 1706 FPR, installed, set it, ran it, stored car for the winter adding STA BIL and starting once a month; I wanted to double check the FPR because i felt i was running rich. Unplug vacuum and i can increase fuel, but cannot decrease even with allen screw backed out. Can...

Ok, thanks. I unplugged it to drive home tonite and idle stayed where i wanted; no hangups, no stalling.

i have replaced my IAC 3 times, BWD product, and the car achieves a steady and smooth idle for about a week or less. tonite, i didn't need to put my foot on the pedal as the RPMs were hanging up around 2200, but this morning, car ran well. i read somewhere that the Motorcraft brand may be worth...

oh, I am always smiling when I get the benefit of your knowledge! really, thankyou very much, I have just had one stupid question after another and you and the guys have been great @ helping me figure this baby out; much obliged for your patience and willingness to help, thankyou!

ok, veryuseful.com shows an orange wire, #49, and calls it a HEGO ground- BUT, my orange wire produces 4 volts in the run position, so, I don't want to ground a 'hot' wire, right?

it's a 1989 and it's a solid orange, no tracer, wire. with the new IAC and throttle body/TPS installed, the drivability issues have smoothed out.....but I would still like to know what this loose wire is. the p.o. used what looks like lamp cord and speaker wire to 'rig' his own interior lite and...

AND finally, some good news: bought the 75mm BBK 1503 throttle body with TPS, a MUCH better setup than previous model where TPS had poor teet contact to throttle body, AND put on a new IAC- I now have close to 200 miles since installation and so far, idle/stall issue went away!! Thanks guys for...

this is a solid orange wire coming from the round white bundle connector that used to go under the 5.0 emblem on the upper intake; my p.o. left it hanging between the upper and the firewall, shows 4 volts in run pos.

jrichker 29 april 2012 is under the diagram- it shows on this page.

On the above schematic, #49 is an orange wire; in the engine bay along my firewall, coming from the large round white connecting bundle, I have a clipped orange wire measuring roughly 4 volts in the run position. Any idea what this is? Or any good wiring diagram sources? Thanks.

so, the two ports of the IAC are isolated from each other, via the plunger- cleaning fluid shouldn't be running into lower port and vice versa; I spray in one port, lower port fills up- fluid running past the plunger internally.

okay, thanks. I am just having a lot of trouble with idle/stalling; trying to narrow down possible causes, and reading the checklists posted here. Thanks again!

nope, moved on up to the 130. forgot to mention THAT operation, sorry. I am trying to determine what purpose it serves, anything that could contribute to erratic idle. i'm about to go mount a new bbk 1503 throttle body with tps ; the original bbk edelbrock/tps combo was the tuner's main...

I'm going thru the wiring on my '89 lx convertible, I found this neatly clipped wire, black w/ orange tracer, on the driver's side close to the fender well, in the batt/starter relay area. It may have been done by the last owner; it may have been done by me when installing a new MSD box.

on the 1989 mustang lx convertible, which some knot head did a lot of Frankenwiring on, I am hoping to ring out and verify any/all grounding points, as the car has zero idle consistency and stalling issues. Is there a ref. book or chart to rundown all my grounding and ensure it is correct? thankyou.

ok, I am beginning to see how complicated this can get. I will seek out a local tech I have heard of, just frustrated. But it's only money so, it's all good. Thanks for the advice guys!

I am to the point where my friends and I have done all we know to do. Granted, no one is claiming bragging rights where knowledge is concerned, but even following the checklist, going thru the obvious and the suspicious, the car continues to fail because I have failed. I haven't the resources to...
