I went through nearly the exact same thing on my 89....did the oversized bolt but I think it was on the timing cover only as I did the water pump and chain at the same time. Had the help of a machinist buddy who came over and helped. You gave me bad flashbalcks! :eek:

Yeah, what sucks here in Kommiefornia, is the newer hi-flow cats are not allowed even though they blow cleaner. It's strictly a money-making scheme out here. In reality, the days of smog checks should be over as very few have heavy polluters. Most people daily drive pretty clean cars now...

So leaving the Sea Foam in and revving it up killed it?

So, what killed yours at 306k miles? Just curious....

Had my battery go dead just sitting in the garage....recharged battery then go dead again. Someone told me it's a failure mode of a bad alternator. Installed new alternator....fixed!

Looks like your red needles went white? Is that just the photo? The top of my speedo is pretty dark with the stock lights. Was wondering if a bulb is out...can't remember if one is located just above the mileage counter....anyone know?

It's easy enough for you to do....give it a try!

My 86 Capri has the 10 holes.....love the look.....my 89 GT has the ponies....love 'em! So I got both and love both! :) Maybe ya need to buy another Capri or Mustang and have both, too! I know, I'm no help!

Google for how to set the choke and give that a try first.....I prefer Holleys and never really messed with an Edelbrock but they all work similarly....

Happened on my stock wires but never on the Ford Racing ones I have now.

I know it's an old post but the image links are no good and I really wanted a comparison......help anyone?

Just keep the Fox and buy another car.....then another...then another....then you can swap out as you want. That's how I have 5 cars.....all mine! When people call me stupid then whine how they are bumming rides while their new car is in the shop...I just tell them, when my car has a dead...

Crap, didn't notice!

The baffle in your gas tank has broken off. Symptom is stalling in a turn. Drop the tank, pull out the pump and take a broom handle. See if you can move the baffle box around. If so, buy a new gas tank. Happened to both my 5.0Ls.

Had similar problems on my 89. Found multiple problems so will list ones not mentioned yet. The baffle in the gas tank had come loose so it would die in a turn. Installed a new gas tank. In hot weather, it would die because the MAF sensor got too hot...threw a code. Randomly stall at...

OK...found my old stock shifter. The Hurst shifter handle has a larger diameter all the way to the threads while the stock one is thinner far enough below the threads to clear the Bullitt knob, then gets thicker. Now that I know the threads are good, maybe I can figure something out.

I have a Hurst Billet Plus shifter on my 89 GT. The stock knob fits fine. I'd like to swap the knob out for an OEM Mach I/Bullitt knob. Will this work? If not, anyone know of a repro Mach I/Bullitt knob that will fit it? I will admit I got a supposedly OEM Mach I/Bullitt knob off eBay. The...

Anyone have the part number(s) and a good source for front and rear Spicer u-joints to fit a manual trans 1989 Mustang GT? Is front and rear the same part ( don't think so but thought I'd check). Thanks, Mike

Another question....did this screwed up state make it where only some certified shop can install the Magnaflows or can I install it myself?

Was curious as to the fit. I have an HPM (I think) 4 point k-member brace that my stock cats rub on.....been thinking of upgrading cats one day, especially if I start having smog problems. Yeah, probably cheaper to take my tax dollars and leave the screwed up state! Do these cats flow better...
