    A/C Unusual problem need help!

    Sounds like what you need to replace is the A/C Clutch Cycling Switch or Pressure Switch. Cost about $12 at Autozone. It's located in the engine bay, passenger side, up close to the fire wall. This should fix your problem.

    anyone know of anything cheaper than tirerack?

    I saw the reviews about people receiving old tires and multiple other issues. Seams like the reviews were isolated to only a couple people. All the dates on the tires I got were good. They had fast and cheap shipping, think I received them in 8 to 10 days. I had no issues at all with...

    anyone know of anything cheaper than tirerack?

    Last time I ordered my Yokohama 275/30/20s, Onlinetires.com had the best deal, even after shipping was added. I think it is hit or miss depending on which tires you buy. Check them out... Onlinetires.com

    Stang Wont Start, Need Help PLEASE

    When you turn your key to the run position, can you hear the fuel pump kick on? You should be able to hear it run for a few seconds before it pressurizes the system.

    mustang gt coolant leak.. help!!

    It could be your intake manifold leaking coolant and running down the back of your engine and transmission. If it just started leaking recently, you could try to retorque your intake manifold. Also, check your heater hoses where they connect to the heater core on the fire wall. Mine started...

    New crush washers??

    No, don't use the old ones. Go to AZ with your brake hoses, they have an assortment to choose from. If not AZ, try another local chain auto parts store. Just about everyone has them. You need to take the old hoses or maybe the old crush washers to make sure you get the right ones.

    Idle rpms go up then drop back down over and over

    I would look at your throttle position sensor (TPS) or idle air control valve (IAC). I had a 94 coupe that when started up when cold, it would idle up to around 2000 rpm then slowly idle down to around 700 rpm, where it should be. Also, driving it down the street it was like the cruise control...

    Wiper Motor Vendor Recommendation

    I might get flamed for this one, but I think the AZ one is lifetime warranty. Since I plan to keep my stangs for my lifetime, that is what I would go with. After all, it's just a wiper motor. Just my 5 cents worth of free advice.

    Timing chain cover

    Haven't checked the valve covers to the heads yet, but went to the stealership today and ordered bolts for timing chain cover. I got 9 bolts and a bag of nuts for about $40.00. What a rip, but at least I'll have what I need.

    Timing chain cover

    All good advice. I will be going to the Ford stealership tomorrow to see what they can tell me. I will post what I find out. Are you serious that the valve covers might be different?

    Timing chain cover

    Hi all. I usually spend more time in the classic side of the house but my recent purchase/project has me spending more time here. Background: I bought a 2000 GT with head issues (another story) that needed to be swapped out with another set that came with the deal. The good heads he said...

    Loud pop in passenger rear?

    Might be your U-joints going bad? I would replace them and see if that helps. They shouldn't cost more than $15.00 at the local chain auto parts store.

    Another idle problem

    I've heard that about AZ electical sensors/parts too. I got mine from there anyway, and luckily it's worked fine.

    Another idle problem

    It's the idle air control or IAC. I had the same problem on a 94 with the 3.8. I tested it according to my chilton/haynes manual and even though it checked good, I decided to replace it. Bought one from the local AZ and that fixed the problem. It fixed the high idle at startup when cold, and...

    Need a how to on headgasket change

    I just did it on a 96 coupe with the 3.8. What a pain in the arse! You pretty much have to take everything off the engine until you are left with just the block connected to the transmission and motor mounts. Get a roll of duct tape and start numbering things like hoses, vacuum lines...

    Accel, Crane, Mallory, Pertronix

    Not that I am going to do it anytime soon, but if I went to AutoZone to get a duraspark set up, what would I ask for? What is the best year distributor? Also, what year ignition module would I need? Any idea of the total cost I would be looking at?
