    Engine Foxbody Mustang A/C Compressor Reseal - Nippon-Denso 6P148A

    I found the part numbers for the bearings. Front bearing is 6203-RS. Rear bearing is BA248Z. Inner small bearings are SCE65 but I do not know how you change those. Those are the part numbers I bought to do mine.

    Engine Foxbody Mustang A/C Compressor Reseal - Nippon-Denso 6P148A

    I have the bearing part numbers written down somewhere. I was going to rebuild the air pump on my Saleen a few years back but the case was too worn from when the rear bearing let go so I decided against it. I’d be interested in seeing how you rebuild it.

    What temp thermostat are you running? The cooler the thermostat the richer the car will run.

    Poor idle with a/c OFF

    So if the hvac system is off( like in the off position) does it still surge? What about when it is in the vent position?

    Amazon and UPS....this is ridiculous

    I ordered some parts earlier this week from Rock Auto for my 89. I normally do not pay extra for shipping but I wanted the stuff today so I could install the stuff over the weekend. So chose USPS instead of Fedex and paid the difference. Well they shipped Fedex anyway and I will not get my...

    Interior and Upholstery Seatbelt issue

    This is the best I can do right now. The retractors mount to this bracket. The retractors won’t function properly unless they are mounted. At least that is my experience. Hope this helps some. I don’t have a hardtop on my vert so I cannot help with that.

    Interior and Upholstery Seatbelt issue

    So are you making a ragtop into a coupe? Do you have coupe or convertible seat belts? Front seat belts are totally different between the two body styles.

    Coupes

    I am partial to them because a coupe was my first car.

    Progress Thread Daily Driver.... 89 GT - Front suspension rebuild

    Yes lifetime warranty from Napa. Funny you mentioned the running water sound, I was hearing that when I started the car in the morning for a short while before the heater core let go. I thought it was because it was leaking and there was air in it when I started it? I will still look, just...

    Good point. I didn’t check to see if the restrictor was there before I attached the hoses to the new heater core. I assume the original one is still there. Heater core I replaced was the original one from 1989. I can’t believe it survived that long and 216,000 miles without the restrictor. I...

    I looked at the Jmac web site and it looks like they are only in Utah. I did not call though. Unfortunately, I don't want to deal with lifetime warranty stuff and having to ship it back and wait for them to ship me another one. Much easier to take it back local to where I got it and get...

    Well I got the call on Friday. They said the radiator checked out fine. It flowed good and held their pressure test blah blah blah. I said great, please send it back to the shop I dropped it off at and I will get it Monday morning on my way to work. This morning I go to get it and they try...

    Rear end sounds like marbles in a tin can.

    I would be curious to know if they put any gear oil in before they sent it out the door?

    Progress Thread Daily Driver.... 89 GT - Front suspension rebuild

    $35 to have it checked. Only reason I am doing it is because it’s an original OEM Ford 5spd brass radiator. Id rather run one of those instead of a plastic tank radiator if I can. If it doesn’t pan out I will get a replacement radiator. I didn’t have any rust in the clutch cable. Just dirt and...

    Alright clutch quadrant and firewall adjuster are done. I took the cable out and lubed it with a graphite spray. I got it freed up pretty good. I think there was a lot of crud binding it up near the clutch fork. I need to find a cheap clutch fork cover as I think the years of running without one...
