    86 Mystery Mods Progress!

    Wiring doesn't bother me, I just really hate hack jobs, lol. Especially when there are mods I am unfamiliar with, just don't know what I can repair or not without messing with the modified components. Lol. I'm going to go check codes in few and report back.

    86 Mystery Mods Progress!

    More pics, looks like the canister is gone, as well the smog pump. Looks like 3 bars on the heads, is that what I'm looking for? Hate to sound like a complete noob, just my first fox. I have had and currently have a 65 and a 73/2 that's in the middle of resto/rebuild but they are seriously...

    No kidding, I assume the PO did some back yard customising, pulling the sensor to confuse the computer to add more fuel, messing with the emissions to get more power. I'll try to get better pictures of the under hood today too

    It has a cold air intake. What are those plugged vacuum lines? Are the 2 on top of the intake needing to be plugged in? As fast as the charcoal canister, I'm not sure, seeing as the air pump is still there I'd guess it is, but I'll have to check in the daylight

    86 Mystery Mods Progress!

    I just picked up an 86 5.0. 5 speed with some obvious mods. It's a quick car, I had a 95 5.0 with work done, and it was quick, this one by far is quicker. I can't tell exactly what's been done, what I do know is, I was told it has gt40 heads, has an HO intake on it, headers and cold air, it...

    65 Door Crash Bar Help

    I got a clean OE drivers door at a swap meet. It's in really good shape, needs painted and a minor door ding touched up. But when we were looking at it to swap mechanics over my buddy noticed/ said that the crash bar is pulled away from the outside skin. I was looking at it today trying to...

    Tuning 65 1bbl 200 I6

    It's all original. It's just not bench set. It will idle when warm, but won't start when cold, I readjusted the choke as it wasn't closing to just open from full closed when cold. It does open when warm, and moves freely, also doesn't seem to have high idle set, as I have to hold 1/3 throttle...

    High Idle And Poor Mpg

    I have a 95 5.0 5 speed, what I know that has been done to the car: CAI, Non Stock headers, "offroad" 2.5" exhaust, X pipe, no cats and high flow mufflers. SCT selective tuner. I'm idling at 1100 cold and 950 warm. I tried the Setting base idle with no improvements. I turned off the SCT...

    Muffler Help

    it is an offset / center muffler, the killer in this setup is the hangers used, they make the pipe hang lower then I would like. I doubt it was ever designed to run anything but a glasspack
