    WTF??? Overheating! no heat! Problems!

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think all 6 cylynders are supposed to be within 5 of each other. If you're getting 155 on your passenger side and 170 on your drivers side save for the back cylynder being 160... I hate to say it but it's starting to sound like a head gasket to me. Isn't the back...

    WTF??? Overheating! no heat! Problems!

    Check for leaks from your rad when filled and car running, or car just shut off. My new radiator started leaking coolantfrom the upper tranny fluid hookup after a month letting air into the system again. Lousy POS Ready-Rad junk heap. :mad:

    WTF??? Overheating! no heat! Problems!

    If your head gaskets are busted there's a good chance that the oil and coolant will mix, creating a mixture that looks like chocolate milk in your radiator. Also air in your cooling system would be causing the same kinds of problems, I'd make dead sure you didn't trap any air last time you...

    Need for Speed Underground

    I totally agree. Motor City online was really cool, but the users killed it. Everybody was so goal oreiented it was hard to find people that would race on the tracks and modes that don't have a huge payoff. If they used the shifting-throttle system that they used in Underground the drag races...

    Need for Speed Underground

    Perhaps you could get a gamecube. That's what I have. It's only 99$ now, and you can play NFS:Underground on it. The NFS series is just an awesome series. The physics are the perfect blend of realism and fun factor, especially since they switched to the 4 wheel physics model in Porsche...

    Help, my Stang is rather broken.

    Flashing CEL means knocking in the engine. Did you have your plugs or wires replaced recently? Using a low octane gas with an aftermarket chip?

    MGW Shift Knob

    Well I would, but I'm hearing impared and cannot use the phone. I'm not worried that I was charged for the adapter, I just wondered what it was for since my knob appears to be working properly.

    MGW Shift Knob

    So I ordered the MGW shift knob ages ago for my 96, which means that I have no OD button on the shifter, but on the console instead. They tried to contact me by phone to discuss my order, but I never got back to them. Eventually they shipped the knob. I think they wanted to ask me if I wanted...

    The mustang seems to get average fuel mileage if you ask me. Sure if you compare it to a 4-banger than it doesn't look so hot, but it gets good mileage for a 6-shooter.

    Help with lights and dashboard

    Well, just for the record, the procedure for removing the guage cluster is pretty simple so I'll post it here 1)unscrew 2 screws from the underside of the upper dash bezel (size 10 torx) 2)pull bezel out, carefully, tilt wheel down for more room. 3)Unscrew the 4 corner screws on the guage...

    I get about 19mpg on my 1996 convertible with a heavy foot. I hear that pre 96 have some head gasket problems and whatnot but that's not to say you can't find one problem free. I hear that pulleys offer a nice hp gain, but be careful not to underdrive your accessories too much, especially the...

    Check Gas Cap and SES lights fix

    Damn that sucks over 100 dollars for a plastic insert? Is that just the part or the install as well?

    Motorcraft Oil

    Ford's original equipment oil filter is Motorcraft so the oil might be as well.

    Yellow Headlights....is this inside our outside?

    I also heard that Blue Coral wheel polish is great for this, but I never got to try it myself because none of the stores around here stock it. I'm gonna go look for some of the mothers and try that, or the plastiX if it's cheaper.
