    Car is making bad noises

    Alright, well yesterday just before I got to work, I was sitting in traffic and noticed a weird noise from under my hood every so often, maybe like 10 seconds apart or more. Sounds kind of like a clunking, or a knocking. Anyways, after work I get home and when the car idles it happens about...

    Car wont start

    Yesterday my car was running and starting fine, then I went to start it and nothing. CAA came to tow me home, and we got it started by tapping the starter solenoid as I tried to crank it over. I tried tapping it earlier, but I guess it did no good as the motor wasnt trying to turn over. Anyways...

    Header not seated properly?

    Im not too sure what kind of headers they are, unequal length shorties is all I know. Im not too sure what a sealing bead is, so I'm going with no. I was also concerned that I cross threaded the bolts, but it seems like everytime i readjusted the header it would go on the same way so I don't...

    Header not seated properly?

    I was changing my passenger side exhaust manifold gasket tonight, using a felpro gasket. The problem is it looks like there is too much space between the gasket and the head/header. Maybe Im just being an idiot, but shouldnt it tighten all the way? I tightened the 8 bolts as much as possible...

    car shaking like mad

    Lately my cars been shaking a little bit, it would just happen at random times. Now its shaking a lot, feels like a huge vibration coming from the rear. Should I just jack up the rear and see if there is a lot of play in the driveshaft/u joints? Anything else I should look in to? thanks

    Oil pressure completely drops off?

    I noticed once about a week, and tonight, that after givin'r, my oil pressure seems to completely drop to the very bottom of the gauge (stock gauges), and when I rev it up a little it will go back to normal. Any ideas as to why it would do this? I was using nitrous if that matters, but I wasnt...

    Smallest/cheapest shiftlight

    I want to get a shiftlight that goes on at 5300 rpm, as thats what I have to hit in 1st gear for my nitrous to engage. I have this window switch, www.bmnracetech.com , and you can hook a shiftlight up to it. What I am wondering is, are they any shiftlights that are just like a single LED buld or...

    Did my clutch cable just snap?

    Yesterday coming home from the mall, I get into my car and push the clutch in, and I hear a snap and the pedal goes all the way to the back. Now it feels the pedal is completely free of any tension, so I assumed that the cable snapped. Am I right in assuming this, and is a cable a difficult...

    How do i change turn signal flasher?

    The thing is, there is no flasher where it says there should be one in the fuse panel, yet my turn signals used to work. All my other fuses are fine, I tried to put a flasher in where it says, but it does not fit. Strange!

    How do i change turn signal flasher?

    I have an 88 Mustang, Ive heard different years have flashers in different spots and mines near my fuse panel. Do I need to take my dash apart to get at it, I heard it was sort of behind the fuse panel, or above it? My turn signals completely stopped working, so this is kind of important. Thanks :)
