    Engine Running Rich And Backfiring.

    I have a 95 mustang gt that is pretty much stock. I just got the vehicle about a month ago. The stock mid-pipe rotted out right at the cats so I took this opportunity to upgrade. I switched from the stock catted h-pipe to a Pypes off-road X-pipe. It sounds amazing. I am not sure if the problem I...

    Electrical Charging System.

    Hey guys, I have an 84 gt with some kind of electrical issue. First the starter was staying engaged while the car was running. So I changed the starter solenoid on the firewall and that fixed that problem. Then my battery was dead. I charged my battery and pulled my battery cable with the car...

    Power Steering Relocation.

    My 1990 5.0 had no smog pump and no AC. It was not running the eliminator pullies either. The previous owner had just eliminated them and ran a shorter belt. He had used the AC eliminator kit from Ford Racing that moves the power steering pump to where the AC compressor was previously located...

    Is My Engine A "roller"?

    As far as the distributor gear question...a non-roller motor uses a steel or iron gear but a roller motor uses a softer bronze gear. Is that correct?

    Is My Engine A "roller"?

    Yes I have seen those when I completely disassembled my old 90 lx's motor. I was not sure exactly the difference between a "roller" motor vs. a non. Thanks!

    Is My Engine A "roller"?

    I just picked up an '84 mustang t-top with an HO motor. This is my first mustang with a carburetor. I was just wondering if this is a "roller" motor being that is an HO. It has the 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 firing order. Also I want to install an HEI distributor with the coil in cap to clean up the engine...

    Door Window Adjustment.

    It's a t-top car. I don't think I have a run channel. However after opening up the door that works perfectly I found the problem. Not only are the bushings missing off my passenger side door, but the top bracket(flat piece of metal held down with two bolts) that the bushing sits in is not there...

    Door Window Adjustment.

    my window is not flopping in and out, it is going forward and aft like it isn't on a track at at all. I have to pull the window up and keep it level to get it all the way up. It's driving me insane.

    Door Window Adjustment.

    Hello all. I recently picked up an 84 t-top with an 87-93 nose. I am having some difficulty trying to get the passenger window to go up and down on the tracks. I am assuming t-top mustangs use the same doors as convertibles since they do not have a frame around the window? Does anyone know any...
