    Noob Cam Question

    I have no shame... So what should a b303 feel like? What should my timing be set at? I've read advanced all the way, I've read stock timing. It shakes the whole frikin car and backfires until warm at 14 degrees. I've never had a cammed car before. Should it shake enough to see the motor...

    Codes - Mustang Says...

    NICE diagram! Right click save. I've actually replaced one of those before but I don't remember what car or what it was doing. I'm going to start keeping a journal. Let's not get into the beeping. I get a nervous tick thinking about it. Well I didn't get to run the bloody codes. Kids are...

    Codes - Mustang Says...

    OK! I got the little flashes at the beginning this time. Now I know what that beeping is going down the road. It's irratic and odd. My CEL must be hosed. Here's what I got just now KOEO... 85 85 14 14 Then the beeping started and nothing else from the CEL. So I will have to use the volt...

    Codes - Mustang Says...

    You know it's awfully strange that when running it didn't repeat codes. Here's what I have written down while running. May you guys can make sense of it: KOEO - 85 1 4 4 Then I turned it on Running - 4 2 1 *engine idled up* 9 *pause* 3 3 1 8 2 3 *engine idled up* 9 *pause* 3 3 1 7 4 4 2...

    If the 94's ever grew on me I'd have them surgically removed. :p When we were building this car, we had a rod that was too long, which is worse than a short one you can shim. We couldn't do crap with it so I traded out with my friend for a slightly shorter one than the rest. I am BETTING that...

    The PIP doesn't make sense. The car would die, not buck while cold. Hmmm

    Codes - Mustang Says...

    My eyes stayed glued to it. Second time I've done it. No wierd codes starting out. Also, I read somewhere that after 1991 the cars all went to 3 digit codes? It was the last 1993 coupe on the lot when my friend bought it. Sitting all alone surrounded by ugly 94's. Bless it. I'll try again...

    Car runs like crap until warm. Battery was disconnected but I plugged back up and ran the codes anyway... I have just replaced the IAB and TPS. ***UPDATED*** I changed the ECT just in case, changed dizzy cap and rotor button, set the TPS to .98. I did the diagnostic again. This time I got...

    Sluggish Starting

    I'm going through the check list little by little. On a hunch I checked the timing that my neighbor set... It was at 20! Needless to say it doesn't pop out of the intake or start crappy now. I set it to about 14, and will probably drop it to 12 tomorrow. It didn't like anything less than 10 but...
