    F 150 pulled out in front of the wife

    Well was on the way home from a cruise in tonight, I was driving my 71 Lincoln and she was driving the 76 Cobra II. I knew it wasnt a good thing when she left about 1 min before me and by the time I got to the exit there was a group of guys standing there looking down the street and I see my...

    Power cutting out

    I have not noticed the problem before, but it is hard to find enought road to wind it up that hard. It is exactly like you both describe. I have a new stock coil sitting on the shelf, when I get a chance I might change it out and see what happens.

    Power cutting out

    You know I was thinking fuel pump this weekend. I have no clue what the volume is on the pump, I think it is an electric standard volume Napa pump I put in back in 98, I think (been to long ago to remember, lol) I am thinking lower volume because I didnt need a regulator. I will have to get a...

    Power cutting out

    I took the Cobra to the strip today and had an issue I thought I would bounce off the group. I was running great through the 1/8 (about an 8.45 -8.50). I was keeping pace with a Z06 that was turning 12.3 - 12.4. But a little past the 1/8th I loose power from the engine, if I pull my foot out of...

    Tie Rods?

    Jeff, I see what the issue is now. If you go back to parts america and put in 1976 instead of 1978 you will see only 1 for either power or manual but if you put in 1977 you will see a start up date of 6/27/77 for the different power end. I see in your signature your car is a 78, mine is a 76 so...

    Tie Rods?

    Megan, I am assuming you are talking about outers, yes they are the same. They are also very easy to change, just pull a wheel, loosen the jam nut behind the tie rod end, pull the cotter pin, remove the castle nut, smack the threaded shaft loose and unthread the outer from the inner (this is the...
