    Engine My turn for a Sputtering-hesitating issue

    Didn't get too far with the checklist 'cause my cooling fan didn't turn on during KOEO. Got a 564 code for it. Only stored code was 212 for the PIP, but it went away the next time I ran KOEO, and I didn't clear codes. I wiggled the fan connector to make sure it was in tight, and ran KOEO...

    Engine My turn for a Sputtering-hesitating issue

    True enough. I did unplug the IAC to see if it had any effect, and the RPM's simply dropped until the engine died. Which sounds like exactly what one would expect with a surging idle. I'll go through the checklist and see what happens.

    Engine My turn for a Sputtering-hesitating issue

    Put the new CCRM in today, and the issue is still present. And once again, the idle changed. It's gone back to the idle jumping down like it did when I first posted, but not quite as bad. The only thing I have done is replace the CCRM. Here's a video to show the issue. The engine started...

    So, that's the filler on the hood you're waiting 4-6 months to to cure and shrink before you paint? I didn't see any other filler anywhere else.

    mustang whining noise sn95 Mustang / gt 1995 ???

    I can hear this high-pitched noise in the first part, then what sounds like a chirping bearing in the second. But those are just guesses, so you'll need to narrow it down. You can buy a mechanic's stethoscope, or you can do the cheap route and use a long cardboard tube - the one from a roll of...

    Engine My turn for a Sputtering-hesitating issue

    Could just be the voltage regulator on the alternator. The metal brushes wear down and eventually won't make a good connection.

    Engine My turn for a Sputtering-hesitating issue

    As always, life gets in the way. But today, I was able to do some checking. My first check was the CCRM. I couldn't get to the wires I wanted to test with the CCRM bolted in, so I unbolted it and was able to pull it and the harness up higher. That's when I noticed the plastic connector on...

    For the rubber moulding around the front windshield, did you just put tape under it to pull it up and out of the way?

    Engine My turn for a Sputtering-hesitating issue

    Issue happens at all RPM's, and starts up within a few seconds of starting the car. Engine RPM's go up and down maybe 200 RPM each time, and drop low enough at idle that the engine threatens to die. If I leave it long enough, the engine will die like I turned the key. This is the weird part -...

    Need to replace the output shaft bushing on your T5? Here's the tool to get.

    Glad you figured it out; the instructions really aren't that clear. They make perfect sense AFTER you've figured it out of course. While I didn't have any such troubles, it would suck greatly if the tube got stuck inside the transmission. I imagine that's why the screw is there.

    Those Cobra seats are real nice. I got a set of beat-up Parchment ones for my 94 Cobra clone, and they're really comfortable.

    Need to replace the output shaft bushing on your T5? Here's the tool to get.

    Crawls out from under his car, covered in grease I haven't used the tool in years, but here's what I remember after re-reading the instructions: Take the tool apart. This means removing the 'expander' (the part with the black rubber rings) and unscrewing the center bolt completely. Install...

    Idle and power issues on my '95 Cobra (codes inside)

    I picked up a DELPHI AF10352, back in October of 2017, and it's still running great.

    Idle and power issues on my '95 Cobra (codes inside)

    If the fuel pressure regulator doesn't clear the MAF codes, gat a new MAF sensor as they can go bad. I tested mine by 'borrowing' an off-brand one from my local auto parts store. It fixed my poor running issue, so I bought a better one from rock Auto and returned the cheap one.

    Build Thread 1978 Fairmont. I bet somebody back home’s thinkin’…I wonder why he don’t write..?

    I can appreciate the 'throw a fit' parts. I'm all 'what the f*ck' when something goes wrong on a project, and I curse up a storm for a few minutes. Then I calm down, my brain kicks in again and I can think over what happened and what the problem could be. But you'll make progress, and that's...

    Help identifying an unconnected wiring harness under steering wheel.

    Does yor car have an automatic transmission? That might be for the Neutral Safety Switch, which is only on manual transmission cars. Ford tried to save money by having one dashboard setup for all its 94-95 cars. This is why the V8 cars have an OBD2 connector under the dash - Ford sells a lot...

    New and looking for help on my 1994 v8 swap

    I've done the swap once, 94 V6 auto to a Cobra V8 manual. So I can simply agree with @SorsCode and show that he is a genius. :D @Farmstad, this job would be much easier if you have a donor car so you can get all the little brackets and bolts that you'll need. If not, you may be hunting your...
