    No Start - Fuel Pump Not Getting Power

    Hello, My 1966 mustang with a '93 EFI system was put outside for about a month now and cannot get it to start.

    wheelhouse - How do you clean?

    Apart from buying a sandblaster, how do you clean a wheelhouse that looks like this? I'm in the process of doing the quarter panels on my '66 and I'd like to POR-15 the inside of the wheelhouse as well. Using a grinder seems to work but just is going to take quite a while. I'm curious...

    Welds rusting

    I did the cowl vent repair about 3 years ago, and it appears the welds are rusting. I'm curious of two things, how did this happen (so I can be proactive for future projects) - and how should I go about fixing it? I used 3M weld-thru primer on the underside parts that had to be welded where I...

    '66 Mustang coupe Some time ago my temp & fuel gauges quit working. Checked for voltage at the back of the cluster and I'm not getting anything at the fuel gauge (or temp). Ran a 12v wire from the battery to the fuel gauge and it started rising. So I tested for 12v at the CVR on the...

    idle situation

    I haven't many miles on my '66 EFI yet as I'm trying to get all the bugs worked out. When I start my car, I have to give it some gas to keep it running until it reaches about 110-130° and then it'll idle on its own at around 800-900 rpms. Okay, so I go to the surging idle checklist and find some...

    3G alternator conversion

    Picked up a Tuares 3g alternator and I'm finally getting around to converting, though I have a couple of questions. Got the pulley off of both, and as a shim I used the 1G alternators lock washer and then put on the pulley and torqued it down to 77lbs. Is 77lbs enough to satisfy safety...
