    R 134 A conversion

    I would buy a new liquid line as (PuterAmI) said. It's quicker to do. About $25 from a autoparts store. You won't be happy with 134a. I have experience. I have tried 134a, Freeze12. I decided R12 IS the best cooling. If you have no air, you HAVE a leak. Better find it before putting money on a...

    Fix your Cruise control, Check how it works

    If your cruise control is not working your problem is 80% the VSS sensor on the tranny/speedo cable. I used my factory Ford manual and everything ohmed out and checked out. I went and bought a VSS cause thats the last thing I thought of (usually the last thing you do fixes it). Now keep in mind...

    how to? remove dash pad

    What ever you do get a Ford one. Not a repo. one. I got a repo armrest from 5.0 restore. It is cheap china crap. I once in a while see Ford ones on ebay cause people buy them and it's a pain to put them on. May have to paint it. 5.0 restore might have new Ford ones.

    Please Advise-misfires And Smokes In Rain

    It sounds like a distribuator cap to me. Or plug wires to cap. Get a good cap like a MSD or something better than China made brands. Did you get those wires pre made or did you have to make them yourself?

    Used P headers?

    Sorry, I can't read sometimes. I figure do a search on completed auctions on eBay. I figure $50 on up. Getting your headers to work on P heads? You would have to check with Mac themselves. I know the back tube on the drivers side would tell you if it will work. You can tell if it will not work...

    Typical A/C overhaul parts?

    Before you do ANYTHING put some (1/2 can)134a freon in the system. Put a leak detector to the system (can buy a used at a pawn shop or eBay). Check mostly near the connections and near the evaporator area (next to the heater core). Lift the seal around the evaporator tubes. If the leak detector...

    cruise control and horn, very confused

    Hate to say this but you'll have to get a wiring diag. It's best to get a Factory Ford manual for your year. Then you know for sure whats up. My cruise is bad and everything links to the Speed control amplifier using the diagnostics from Ford service manual. On the brake pedal there is a...

    206k miles...change timing chain or not?

    It's got a steel sprockets and chain now. It will have quite a bit of wear on the chain. You won't notice anything in the performance. Just a little smoother. Forget putting a cam in a car with that milage unless you freshen the motor. Heads will be ok. Might as well replace the balance as well...

    Smoothest aftermarket shifter? (searched)

    Shifters are different and some feel better. When you take them apart is when you can see how it wil feel. The Steeda Tri-Ax is metal bushing ball to metal cup (I have this and feel everything). I think the B&M has a nylon roller ball to metal cup (feel better when shifting). Everybody likes Pro...

    Error code 67 c

    Fix for code 67 The way to get rid of code 67 is to put your car in neutral when running a scan. If it's not in neutral and you run the scan you'll get error code 67. If still there while in neutral- your nuetral switch is not working inside the transmission.

    Cruise control

    My cruise contol has never worked since I bought the car (2 years). I have read the clock spring is part of the crusie to work. When I hit the on and set- nothing kicks on. Maybe the steering wheel switches that control the thing? The horn works and I know the clock spring controls this. I don't...

    ahh damn persisting oil leak. Now going to change oil pan gasket. i need some tips.

    You don't need to jack up your engine to change out the gasket. I did mine when I had the trans out and it took some patience. First clean around the oil pan area. Make sure the flywheel is off. Clean area around the front and back areas of the pan. Drop the pan. Slide in the gasket from the...
