    Trunk Lock Issue

    That's funny you brought this up. I was finishing up replacing my rear speakers last weekend & my 05 it did the same thing. I shut the trunk & it kept opening. When I started the car it stopped. I shut it off & tried my spare key fob & it didn't do it. Could it be the button sticking on the fob...

    Wheel Spin

    This is just a guess but it could be that the tires have not yet worn in to the change & do not have even contact with the pavement yet.

    Oil Pressure Gauge Install

    Hello all, I just finished a gauge pod install & used a Prosport sandwich adapter for the oil pressure sending unit. The stock oil filter would not clear the sway bar so I used a Moroso 22463. I am seeing 75 psi @ start up, 40 psi @ idle warm & 50-60 cruising. Has anyone used this filter...

    Battery Drain Problem Solved

    It is the smart junction box located behind the passenger side kick plate. If you get a severe cowl drain plug the water can cause all sorts of problems if it gets in there.

    Storing an 07 Mustang GT for the nxt 6 Months - any tips?

    If you are only looking @ 6 months storage I wouldn't worry about putting it on jack stands. Your best bet is to just go find some junk yard spares to throw on if you are worried about flat spots on your good tires.

    Storing an 07 Mustang GT for the nxt 6 Months - any tips?

    I have heard that it is not good to leave a car on jack stands for a long time unless the suspension is supported. All the weight from the wheels, calipers, rotors hanging in the breeze could do more harm than good. Has anyone else heard this?

    Brakes Goofy question, but really need answer

    Please tell me you have jack stands under it first. What you are dealing with is the section of rotor that the pad does not contact. This builds up rust over time & now the "pads" are underneath this crud. You should be able to tap the caliper off with a soft or dead blow hammer. I don't want to...
