Either they lost their domain name (same thing as web site name) or their server or web site is being upgraded or moved.
I found their web site very useful and it seemed to have lots of information that was not available elsewhere.

WTF Ford. I loved that site. I hope it all gets resolved. There was a lot of good (and apparently copyrighted) material there.
You're still viewing the browser cache from earlier today. Click the refresh button. This only happened a couple hours ago, no matter what the date says. Probably had to subpoena the web host.
All of the diagrams I remember seeing on there were hand-created by the guys who ran the site.
It was a very, very good resource, hopefully they get it up and running again soon.
Still get the same message.
If there was any legal problems that caused the web site shutdown, it probably was the use of the trademarked name "Ford". Big companies have a habit of cracking down on anyone who uses their name or trademarks without their express consent or permission.
Their other site, RJM Injection Tech — Welcome is still up and running. It is the sales site for a lot of the wiring products for Mustangs.

I get the following when I go to the web site:

From the domain registration information, their registration data changed on 11/20/2011.
My guess it that its is likely the fact they they used "Ford" in their domain and company name. In fact, it's surprising that Ford took this long since Ford did their big "we are *****s" cleanup ?5-10 years? ago. And, their domain name, and company name were well known in the forums and Ford community. So, it makes me wonder why Ford decided to do something about their name now. It may be that when Ford was doing their cleanup a while back, FordFuelInjection was still pretty small. But, that didn't seem to matter with many other companies at that time.

That's odd, you may have to clear more.
For IE: Tools--Internet Options--Delete Browsing History
For Firefox --Tools--Clear Recent History
Or just get CCleaner, easier to use: Download CCleaner 3.12.1572 - FileHippo.com
As stang&2Birds has noted, it could be a domain name redirect because the domain name has been taken away from the old owners (fordfuelinjection ) & given to the new owners (the lawyers or the court). This means that the IP address of fordfuelinjection is changed.
What could have taken so long, is the registrant is located in Canada. IP addresses, Name Servers, & Registras have changed quite a bit; could have been hard to track them down.
I don't know if it makes a difference, but the site was there to make money. Maybe Ford frowns on unlisenced sites making money from the Ford name.

"OldFuelInjection.com" hahaha!
Well, at least they got it back up. Good, that was a great resource.

That's a sad thing, there was lots of really good information on the site.
If someone knew the name or email address of the owner of www.oldfuelinjection.com, maybe he could be persuaded to donate the contents of the website to someone else. It would be nice to have the tech articles available as a PDF or section on another site.
