    99 Cobra Electrical Issues

    I've got a 1999 Cobra 89xxx miles. Shortly after i got it (about 3 months ago) i noticed that sometimes if i downshifted the dash lights would flicker and reset(as if turning the key to "On" position before starting). Thought maybe my alternator was going bad but It didn't do it often so I...

    Might go that route. I've heard Lift bars are hard on the torque boxes and chassis.

    Fox Traction Issues

    Interesting, just read up on treadwear and grip ratings. Those R888's look pretty good. Much better than the Nitto's I have. I just dont see the real advantage of getting them over some Drag radials. How would changing the lower control arm too something by UPR or BBK affect things?

    Fox Traction Issues

    1st Gear- from sitting, leaving at idle 1k RPM, spinning until 5k shift 2nd gear- spinning 3rd gear- chirping into 3rd Don't get me wrong, sideways is a lot of fine. It's just annoying pulling up beside a Camaro at a stop light and knowing i can't drop the hammer because he'll be gone and I'll...

    Water Pump

    Thanks! 1. After cleaning all of the muck off and going at them with steel wool for a bit it seems the end of one is cut different than the rest. Doesn't appear to be broken. Just curious as to why it go stuck. A few have some pretty bad corrosion. Looking in to replacing them. 2. Steel wool...

    Water Pump

    Reviving the dead thread sorry, I finally got to the water pump swap. I ran in to a few problems/ questions. 1. I think i may have broken a stud which was expected. If i did break it was at the very end. Threading is there, but it looks broken on the end. 2. I believe I found the source of my...

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    At an hour the pressure still sat at 40 At 50 mins it still read 40 with the key turned off. Had to go to work after that so didn't get the 1.5 hours.

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    It does the same thing it has been, click to ACC hops to 40, slowly creeps to 0 over a couple minutes. When I start it goes to 39-40 and stays there steady. I'm sure you're going to tell me something is wrong and I'm going to cry myself to sleep. Lol, I just wanna drive her...

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    Ok well started it up, got the running pressure to 39. It idle's smooth as a baby's bottom(Loads better than before). I have't taken it out yet though. When I click to ACC ( 15mins after running for 5 minutes) The fuel pressure hops to 40, then drops just like before. As soon as i start it, it...

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    Well finally got the bugger on. When i turn it too ACC the gauge goes to high 30's then drops, and drops and drops all the way to zero.(very slowly, over 30-40seconds) Maybe i missed something on the vacuum lines? Not tight enough? FPR is flush against the fuel rail(screws tight), o-ring and...

    Also their isn't a place on the current fpr for the gauge. So I have no clue where it's currently plugged in to.

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    This is a pain in the ass lol. The only real problem is the wires that plug into the injectors. They run so closely under that i can't get anything under the FPR, I got the front one off. The side and back one are impossible, I was working on unplugging the injectors so i could pull those wires...

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    I just ordered a FPR early this morning. Should i try and cancel my order and try the vacuum hose route first?

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    One problem is I'm still working on figuring out which ones are vacuum lines. Only had about 10 minutes before it got too dark. Doesn't help that whoever had the car before me had an IQ of about 19.

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    I'll look into that. Great description, I'll see what i can see after work :( It's still pretty confusing to me though. I need to find someone near Fort Benning that can help me. It's nerve racking doing this stuff when i've never done it before, and I don't want to pay a shop to fix something...

    Problem Of The Week! Boo

    Yes I understand, wasn't sure if it was related. I'm was working on looking over them. Just lost my light. I'm assuming O'reilly's will be able to get me the replacement hoses? Sorry for dumb questions...

    Ok, is the cracked nub a leak? or is it anything at all? Also does the fpr matter? Any suggestions?
