    Wiring smoked...

    Joe, I have the E303 cam so I went with the post on setting the base to 1000rpm with IAB disconnected and then reset the TSP to .98volts. After reconnecting the battery, I get a warm start idle of 1200 rpms which drops to 1000rpms after 15 seconds. Reving it and it hangs at 1500 rpms...

    ok, now I am confused.... idle set with IAB unplugged, engine hot...1000 rpms... TPS .98volts...timing 13* idles fine...maybe a movement of 100rpms...barely noticable Now I plugged the IAB back in and the RPMs went to 1500 rpms and wouldnt come down...unplug it and the rpms drop...

    OK, I think we confused ourselves... on the TB itself there is a line that goes to the valve cover to draw off vapor and suck it into the airflow and burn it. Then there are 2 lines on the TB spacer (1 pointing towards the firewall and the other pointing towards the nose) Those are both...

    More timing = less gas mileage?

    Hey, you just want to see his exhaust pour white smoke for 20 minmutes!!!:nice: All joking aside, the sea foam does work at cleaning the cylinders. Now to add to the mix. I was told to run higher octange as well when I bumped up to 14* because it burned more slowly allowing the piston to...

    Power Window Issues (searched for 2 days)

    interesting...learn something new every visit to stangnet. Does the motor work when not attached to the window?? Could the window be out of alignment so much that it jams, freezing the motor in place?

    they both connect into the hard metal coolant lines under the the intake..the one that either goes to the heater core or returns (cant remember which side the lines connect to). The theory is that the coolant will be cooler then the intake manifold so by running coolant in the sapcer it prevents...

    pudman...you sure about those numbers... I swear I have been gapping mine for 10 years to .45 ...maybe thats why I have a surge I cant get rid of!!

    Not sure, but there should be a relay... how else would you be able to operate the pass window from the drivers door.

    vac line to the coolant lines at the TB?? You have me on that one. Do you mean the two coolant lines that go to the TB spacer? Thye actually help keep the TB cooler...sounds funny I know but thats what they do. I would unplug the IAB and see if she will start.

    Thanks, I had removed some of the material in teh IAB to cuase it to "free" flow as in the post but not enough to get the rpms at 1000 without changing the throttle idle screw... I guess tomorrow I open it up a little more and reset the throttle body. Any advice on the grounding point?

    so I decided to pull codes...figured she sat for a year and half lets see if anything turns up... Code 67 and 85 67 clutch neural switch (expected that one) 85 Canister purge solinoid (this caught me off guard) So I found the canister and the valve... unplugged and the vac line...

    WARNING: Dumb question time.... I added the 4g gorund wire by going from the pigtail (computer to battery screw) to my PS pump mounting bolt... but just realized I have alum heads... does that bracket work its way to the block at all or is my ground wire really just taking up space...

    She idles at 1000rpms fairly nice...gun her and let off fast drops to 1200rpm , then to 950 and then back to 1000rpms...no biggie. But turn her off and try and start her and she starts and then stalls... aurrrgghhhhh!!!!

    Thanks, Had been working off the surge list before the smoke. Down to a couple more options and then it will be onto a new frontier.

    did you check the plug gap?? I never trust the "preset" ones.

    4 gauge ground wire added, new battery, MAP sensor replaced. She starts up...takes a second like its thinking... ran fine with a little hunting but I am low on gas, she hasnt run in over a year (yes, I had added fuel stabilizer to her, and octane boost (x3)) Wasnt able to find any smoked...

    About to buy a mustang, good buy?

    Dealer rates here are $85 an hour...no joke. I replaced the heater core myself the first time and then when it died again I took it in to the dealer... $550 later I got her back. Sadly, mods not included, that was the best $550 I spent!! My back was happy, my hands werent all cut up from the...

    About to buy a mustang, good buy?

    from what I can see it has the stock intake and rad, the air filter needs to be shielded...its drawing in hot air from the engine bay....the heater core is a PITA...8-10 hours depending on your skills and the dash has to be completely dropped. I have done it once and wont do it again. No cats...
