Thanks again. For all the years you've been giving advice on these vehicles, ever consider writing a book: Mustangs for Dummies? ;)

Exactly what I was looking for. What size is the rubber hose? I'm hopeful that I'm onto solving the stink issue inside my car. Thanks.

So I've been hammering out a number of issues with my 90 GT. 2 quick questions: 1. What are the symptoms of a header gasket leak and how would I diagnose? 2. The charcoal canister has the gas tank line going into it, but there is no like going out. What does this connect to? Straight into...

No - sounds like I missed a step. :) I might add the question: If one sensor is out of whack, could it theoretically cause cascading problems/trigger codes from other sensors?

Okay, so I went back under the hood, reset the the computer, then adjusted the TPS (I was getting a code for that as well). Took the car for a good test run and put it through the motions, it's still running better than ever. No check engine lights, but I ran diag's anyway just for giggles. I'm...

Hey, old member getting back in the mode of Mustang mods. I have a 1990 GT with 24# injectors. I decided to upgrade my old C&L MAF to a calibrated BBK unit with the install of a new cold air intake. The car is running great (swapped out some faulty sensors while I was under the hood), better...

Okay, thanks.

Hey, just had a new Maximum Motorsports sport suspension kit installed. Went to the alignment shop to button everything up, they said they won't do it until the car has been driven for some time to break in the springs. Problem is, the installer said do not drive until aligned, it was jsut setup...

Yes, but if the coolant temperature exiting the radiator is below the temp that your fan is set to turn on, there is no need for the fan to kick on. It's only when the radiator is not able to cool the car when you need a fan (idling, stop and go trafiic, etc.). That's why DCC's are supposed to...

Thanks for the reply. Yeah, it doesn't seem to smoke while driving, or at least not that i can see. I had another car years back with blow by issues that would put out a puff every few minutes, this car is not doing that. I'm also going to change the PCV valve in case that's the culprit.

I'm not sure what rings were used, probably something equivilent to standard stock rings since the motor was ordered by the shop from Ford.

Yeah, this engine only has about 13k on it, but it sat around for a while as the car was being rebuilt.

So I've noticed some smoke coming out of my tails, seems to be worse after the car is warmed up. I noticed that it is at its worst when the car is warm, I shut it down for a few, then restart. Does this sound like rings or valves to anyone? I forgot to mention: I've been using oil, that's why I...

Congrats on your DCC purchase. once you get it up and running correctly, you'll know you made the right decision to stay away from switches and relays. The diagram is very basic, but so is the setup. As for your two-speed fan, you would hook the DCC output up to the HIGH output terminal on the...

So I'm driving home yesterday and was waiting at a light. I went to go and 'fumbled' the shift a bit and almost stalled. I got it into first, but it wouldn't go into second. Fourth and reverse were no good, either. Then thrid was out, and eventually fifth. I was around the corner from my house...

Awesome info, as always........

Okay, so a guy I know and I rebuilt my '90 GT last year (two cars into one), had it painted, going for a full restore sorta thing. We rushed the last day of work on the car, and neglected one thing: the vacuum system. THere's nothing related to vacuum in the car right now, no hoses, vacumm...

DON'T GO WITH THE FOX SPINDLES! I got roped into buying a Baer kit from Steeda with 5-lug Fox spindles and it's going to cost me big time. Good luck finding wheels, and if you already have wheels that would normally fit 94+ vehicles, plan on running large spacers like I am right now...

That was a good one.........
