    What does a bad throwout bearing sound like?

    your right dude, that didnt even come to my mind at first cause I hadnt changed anything to cause it to ping. Backed it off 2 degrees and its good to go. I think what happened is the gas stations changed to their summer mix's So that problem solved, the rattle was solved by the tranny mount...

    What does a bad throwout bearing sound like?

    well Im starting to think its not the TOB, I pulled the tranny mount and its kinda bad, rubber is still intact, but the new one I got is like 1/4 taller than the old one. Im gonna put it in anyway and hopefully it doesnt cause in driveshaft alinment issues.

    Mac header install nightmare

    have you took out the motor mount bolt and jacked up the motor a bit? I think for long tubes the drivers side goes in from the botton, pass side from the top

    My mustang had to set for 4 yrs. PLEASE HELP!!!

    drop the tank, see if there is any thick, gummy sh1t in there, if not, then your good, just empty and clean it. Then your in bussiness. Injectors will be fine, but probably a good idea to swap to the gen 3 (skinny) injectors if you have some extra cash oh yeah, if it is all thick...

    8v @ SENDING UNIT?

    Smokin Stroker

    pretty much any brand new engine will smoke on the initial start-up, from residual oil on the block and heads/intake, so if your engine is brand new, thats why its smokeing

    other drivers reacting to presence of 5.0

    hahaha, all true, this one is one of my faves to do --> "I have successfully used this phenomenon many times to "slingshot" these idiots into waiting police speed traps" like a year ago I tricked a ricer into racing when I knew there was a cop behind us, guessing he got a drag racing ticket...

    What does a bad throwout bearing sound like?

    only does it under load. I already pulled the valve covers off to see if I had a super loose rocker or something but everything looked good, guess Im gonna take off the lower manifold and see if the lifter/retainer are normal, IDK its pissing me off gonna chage the throwout bearing too, I...

    What does a bad throwout bearing sound like?

    What does a bad throwout bearing sound like? My car makes a rattle under hard acceleration, high rpm, and its louder when its cold, once car is at opperating temp its not as loud. Thinking it might be the TOB It also makes another tick, sounds exactly like an exhaust leak, but...
