    What is the fuel capacity of a 90 LX?

    Most I've ever been able to put in 87 lx was 12.9 when you could actually hear the fuel cutting out when flooring it it was so low. My buddy can put 15.1 in his 91 lx however.

    pro 5.0 shifter, easy/hard install

    Pretty simple and straight forward. You do not need to remove the console, just be patient you can turn the 2 bolts hinding under the console...just takes a while, a lot of little turns of the wrench. Then just makes sure it sits over night to let the rtv seal completely.

    New suspension....same lean

    When I bought the car a year ago it still had the stock air box silencer on it and the plug wires from 1987 while it had 130k miles, so I kind of don't think it was beat too much. For the install...I didn't do it...my mechanic did it and he's been working on mustangs for I don't know how many...

    New suspension....same lean

    My 87 lx hatch has always had a lean on the front drivers side, I thought it was just the strut blown out so I just had all new suspension put on...kyb's, eibach pro-kit, subframes, and granatelli UCA & LCA's. The lean did not change after installing these parts, now every time I go around a...

    Temp Sensor Relocation

    I just deleted the heater core and heater lines on the manifold. I capped the water pump and then moved the sensor to the lower manifold. The reducer that I picked up (3/8 to 1/2) doesn't thread all the way in nor does the sensor into it. Since then the car won't idle or run right, I'm guessing...

    I dont know what to do! HELP!

    I recently got rid of my heater core and the lines that run to the firewall in my speed density lx because of a leaky core. I capped the water pump and moved the temp sensor to the lower intake. All was going well until I started it up and the idle will not come down from 1500, I unplug the...

    mass air or speed density

    You can get kits from Ford for around $500-600 which I think is a rip off. You can do it for cheaper buying parts seperately. But that's $500-600 that you could be spending on heads or the like.

    Smog Equipment

    Go ahead and scrap the smog pump if you want, I just bought a shorter belt and tore out the smog lines and pump and plugged it at the back of the heads. Dead weight and space if you ask me.
