    Another "Surging Idle" thread...

    VSS = Vehicle Speed Sensor? If that's what that means, I'm not sure how that would be releated to my problem, but it's hooked up and the speedo works fine.

    Fighting the weather

    So I got the ol' stang out and washed up and snapped a pic. Maybe we can have more than the two 80+ degree days this year... that would be good. :shrug:

    Another "Surging Idle" thread...

    This is not a "How I fixed", this is a question. This started after I did my auto to t-5 swap. The engine is a ton more responsive to the throttle after the swap so I think it might be releated. Here's the problem, the car idles fine when I start it up cold and warm, if I rev the motor...

    Vert maint.

    I thought about bleach too, but wouldn't that shorten the life of the top? Maybe I'll just dilute the hell out of it and try it.

    Vert maint.

    Hey all, I have a vert with a 2 year old top. Unfortunately the warrenty ran out a year ago. The top itself is in great condition, it's still flexible, no cracking or tears. But the problem is it's white as you can see in my sig, and it's gotten stained and dirty from greasy hands, leaves...

    Need some help with my car dying...haven't seen this before

    The car has it's own computer (ecm) it's under the kick panel. But I was watching your battery guage and it drops to around 7 volts at idle? I'm thinking the battery is bad or the alternator or both or the batt wire connections. Have you had them tested? It looks more like a voltage problem...

    Rear Main seal, which way?

    Jeez, this thread is old. I guess that means the search is working :) Any seal, not just main seals, all go spring side in. Everytime.

    Carpet installed - Car won't start now

    If it's an auto, you probably forgot to reconnect the trans harness which has the neutral safety switch, it's located under the seat and console. The car will light up like it should it just won't crank. If it's a stick, the NSS is up under the dash by the pedals. I would bet money it's one...

    Does adding timing effect air fuel ratio?

    The simple answer... no The long answer... No, the air and fuel are drawn in on the intake stroke, the valves close and begin the compression stroke then the spark is on the power stroke. So no matter when the spark happens, it's already drawn in all the fuel and air it's going to.

    Mustang Wranglers...

    Yeah, it was a lot of fun. I just wish there could have been more cars. Only about 50-75 this year. Aside from by other buddy's crown vic playing the ice cream music the whole way it was a great day. I was pretty unhappy about the way my car looked though, apparently my car cover isn't as...

    Engine Guru's... please, step inside

    It's already got 410's. If I go anymore it won't have any speed at the end of the straights without shifting, and if it does shift it will loose it's acceleration. I'm pretty sure the rest of the drivetrain is where it should be aside from a powerglide, I'm just wondering if I should just...

    Engine Guru's... please, step inside

    I run 2nd gear with a 3 speed auto, both motor and trans are out of a 72 gmc truck. I don't remember what trans it is. I plan on running a power glide when the funds allow it.
