    Help figuring out the Hatch light circuit???

    Guys, Here's another one of those darn simple items that isn't critical, but buggs the heck out of me. Up to last week when the hatch was opened the light came on. Now if you open the hatch the light doesn't come on. The hatch light DOES come on when a door is opened or the dimmer switch...

    Help needed!! Car cuts out at higher RPM

    Axlenut, I had the same problem years ago on my 93 vert. I spent countless hours and money chasing it. My problem turned out to be the TFI module on the distribitor. IT worked great until I would go above 3000 rpm and then it would start cutting out. I followed a similar path to what the...

    Need help ASAP. Picture of hood latch components?

    Thanks Hatch. I guess the hook is the only thing on the hood then, along with the long tension bar? I was worried there was a loop that was missing, but guess not. I must have been thinking about my Explorer latch. I think I have the hood properly latched now. We will see if it pops open...

    Need help ASAP. Picture of hood latch components?

    Guys, I have searched for pictures but can't find any. I am tryig to get my car back together to go to work in a few hours....no sleep:( I don't think all the hardware is in place on this hood. I'm talking about the parts ON the hood itself. I am having a terrible time getting it to latch...

    Starter solenoid part getting VERY hot..help?

    I STILL haven't made it into the interior yet. I spent all evening trying to get all the engine bay wiring put back in shape. Whoever did the wiring job on this car obviously has no concept of quality or neatness. Bare wires everywhere, tangled mess of wires, broken/missing connectors...you...

    egr plate coolant lines?

    You are going to be in for a slew of hassles with the computer once you start messing with the EGR. You will definitely be running permanent computer codes if you try and disconnect it. When running with operating EGR you don't want to disconnect the coolant lines. The coolant, though...

    Starter solenoid part getting VERY hot..help?

    Wow, thanks guys. I appreciate the sound advice from all of you. Yes, I have all the equipment I need for measuring DC, along with just about every tool needed to work on a mustang with. Glad I saved all my stuff after chucking my 93...whew! I didn't know that the inline CB had changed...

    Starter solenoid part getting VERY hot..help?

    Hi guys. I am seeking out some help once again for this 92 hatch. It was definitely piece-meal wired back together by a 12 year old that had skipped the last 4 years of schooling... The wiring in the engine bay was a disaster when we bought the car a few years ago. I did my best to cover...

    Air bag light

    Shakerhood, Thanks so much for the quick reply. Yes, now I recall that blue box. I have not looked for it on this 92 I'm working on but remember working around it on my 93. You mention using the cables from the box to run the diagnostics. Is there a special reader that is used for this...

    REALLY need help locating a stock intake tube

    I am sorry for posting such a simple request here, but I am at wits end trying to locate this tube. I am looking for a stock rubber intake tube for the 92 GT. I need to short one that goes between the airbox and MAF. I kept my Moroso CAI when I threw my surge demon 93 vert over the cliff...

    Air bag light

    Wow, thanks guys. At least I have a direction to start looking in. I'm showing my age and loss of memory here, but could you refresh me on how/where to get to this diagnostic monitor check? I have probably been over it a hundred times before I abruptly threw my 93 vert away, but I'm trying...

    Gauge Electrical Question

    I had the two guages...vac and water temp...in my center console vent for over 4 years and they worked great the whole time. Wish the motor ran as well?:rolleyes: I ran a wire with ring terminals on each end from one of the posts on one guage to one of the posts on the other guage. I then...

    steering shaft question

    My old 93 vert, and now this 92 hatch, both suffered from the worn out rag joint disease. I installed solid shafts on both and couldn't be happier. You can replace the stock rag joint, and it should work ok for awhile, but eventually you will need to do the work all over again. The solid...

    Gauge Electrical Question

    I have some autometer and autogage instruments in my 92. The Autgage center vent guages have only one wire coming out of the light socket. I ground the light through the guages themselves. I ran a black negative wire from a ground on the car up to the back of the guages, then connect the...

    Air bag light

    I checked my airbag light today and it only flashes a "41". Does anyone have a book that lists the airbag codes? I would like to start chasing down the airbag problem, either figure out it's too broken to fix, or replace a good part and be done with it. Thanks guys, Ken

    Jumpy speedo needle? Help!

    OK, thanks for all the helpful info guys. I have replaced the driven gear many times on these cars, but never dealt with the "black" drive gear. What is involved in doing that swap? Are we talking a teardown that's going to get complicated? Having the speed that far off if I try and use the...

    Air bag light

    Squeak, I share your pain on this one. This 92 project car of mine also has a flashing airbag light. I haven't found a way to get rid of it. When we got the car the airbag chamber was empty..obviously had been deployed during a wreck. During the rebuild they just shoved the empty chamber...

    Stupid new/old member's question of the week..."TEF"???

    OK, show and tell. Here's my pix. Ken As you can tell, I have a lot of work to do on this one. My son really got it, and kept it filthy. Far cry from my beautiful 93 I had. We got some cleaning agent on those initials, so they are not as crisp as they were before.

    Stupid new/old member's question of the week..."TEF"???

    That's EXACTLY what my TEF looks like...same color, type/size letters! I guess it's the engine builder? Funny we have the same thing, just different initials. I do think some engine work was done..I know it's not the original engine. If so, then why all the stock components? Manifold, valve...
