    Shudder / Vibration at low rpm

    Recently got this car and have noticed that there is a shudder or vibration when accelerating in 1st and 2nd gear, but only until ~ 2000 rpm, then its smooth as day. It does this around turns or going straight, and there is no noise or chatter when it happens. Also, it does not vibrate at...

    Speedometer broken but odometer still works?

    I was wrong, the odometer does not work, just the trip odometer does. Im thinking to try and swap out the VSS and see if that helps. The Salad, where is the module for the speedo, Id like to try that if the VSS doesnt work. Im assuming that since the odo and speedo are inop its something...

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    Final update, the speedometer does move when I hit about 40 mph, but not very much. Also, the odometer is going like crazy. Wouldnt the speedo be extra fast if the odometer was spinning like that? Im confused...

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    Ok, got a new unit and the first one was defective. However, I still have no speedo and all switches are correctly set. Driving with the lid off of the speedcal I can see the red LED lighting up whenever Im moving, so I assume its getting a signal from the VSS. What else could be wrong?

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    Yes, I have verified 12v to the red speedcal wire. I didnt use the scotch lock, I spliced it in so its definitely getting power. Like I said above, are your directions on your tech site for the blue/green wires incorrect? Should I try and flip them? I have also thought it may be a bad...

    Any way to get another builder tag?

    Recently bought a 96 Cobra and the engine is clean, but the builder tag cannot be seen anymore. The outline is still there, but nothing is legible. Is there anyway to get another one?

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    BlackFang, I actually used your install instructions from your Mustang Tech page, they were very helpful. However, I installed the blue/green wires like you said to, maybe that why its not working. Ill try and flip them and see what happens. On the american muscle site it says it doesnt...

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    After searching the net, I have some conflicting info. The american muscle website install instructions say the pink power wire from the VSS mates to the gray wire on the speedcal connector. However, I found another site that says the ground wire from the VSS should go to the gray connector on...

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    Yea, I verified the switch settings, checked them a few times. Ive seen through other posts that there is a red LED that lights up when it gets a signal from the VSS, but Im getting nothing. In fact, I dont even see an LED inside of the SpeedCal. Did they make some without the LED or am I...

    No speedometer after SpeedCal install

    Just installed a SpeedCal into my 96 Cobra and now the speedo is dead. I checked the installation a few times and everything is where it should be. I searched and found a few people had a problem with a bad connection at the power wire so I soldered it to the lighter wire and check with a...

    Steering shaft issue (pic enclosed)

    Those are just pics I found to illustrate my point. In the top one there is a red circle where the upper shaft meets the lower. That is where I have play. We have an 02 GT here at work and I gave it a look and sure enough its tight. I guess Ill have to replace the whole thing.

    Steering shaft issue (pic enclosed)

    I figured that was where the column would collapse in the event of a collision, but yea, I should probably replace it because its definitely should not be like that. At least I know now that there is no danger of the thing coming apart on my so I can at least drive the car until I get a new...

    Steering shaft issue (pic enclosed)

    There is no bolt or brass clamp there, but I dont believe there should be. Here is another picture of a 94-98 shaft and there is nothing there, just metal into metal. What would cause it to be loose? This auction shows the shaft and its just metal into metal...
