    Shift Kits

    Please forgive me for being naive but what does a shift kit do? I've read previous posts where if I understood correctly it allows D,1,2,OD to shift manually like a stick? If this is so, do you do it when you hear the engine start to rev for that band (rpms are correct for that shift)? Or do...

    Hello Everyone: I just hit 91k on my 98 Mustang. I am noticing that she doesn't get as good gas mileage as she used to (then again it may just be my lead foot :p ). Noticing other little things like with acceleration and such. My question is now that my girl is getting older what can...

    Really hasn't happened that much with me. I have to be tearing around a corner before my traction starts to go. Try the Goodyears in my sig. GREAT for wet traction.

    Newbie introduction and a cople of questions.

    streckfu: Welcome to Stangnet. When taking off the door panel on the armrest area of the door there is a notch, use a screwdriver or something flat to lift this up. MAKE SURE YOU USE A TOWEL or something between the metal and plastic this will ensure you do not scratch your door...

    Noise

    For the last two months my wifes '98 Mustang has made this "hollow noise" intermittently when driving. The "hollow noise" is identical to the sound that is made when you blow into the top of a bottle. It only does this when starting from a stop. It also sounds like it is coming variously from...

    Shifting my automatic manually, will it hurt my trans?

    Just my opinion but I'd stay in Drive. The tranny wasn't made for the type of shifting you are doing. (ie....auto vs. manual) These cars are known to be able to take a little beating but what you are doing just does not seem right. If you really want to manual shift, install a 5 Speed and or...

    As fast as a GT for $200??

    Lynx331: Not that I am questioning you or your dad's ability to work on your car but have a shop put in the gears. They are VERY tricky, and must meet STRICT tolerances when installing. If these are not met or just skewed in the least little bit, you will get at minimum whining and...

    Bad Vibrations

    I'm actually going to go the other way with this. I do not think it is the tires, I think the brakes are now out of round (warped) from slamming on them so hard. They heated up real quickly and then cooled real quickly with the air. I believe therin may lie your problem. Doc

    Mustangmat99: I hope you find out what your problem is, but how can you afford to "punch it" nowadays with gas prices the way they are. $2.25 over here. Doc
