    replacing spark plugs on 93 2.3 w/DIS?

    cool, thanks for all the great info. I might try my luck with the duralast wires. Thanks for reminding me about that fuel filter, lol. I'll be sure to replace that too. Hopefully my gas mileage will pick up a little bit after I do all this. :D

    replacing spark plugs on 93 2.3 w/DIS?

    cool thanks, I'll stop by napa later today to pick up some autolite plugs. Should I bother going to the Ford dealer for spark plug wires? I'm not sure if I trust the generic parts store wires.

    replacing spark plugs on 93 2.3 w/DIS?

    I just picked up a 93 2.3 Notch. It has about 109,000 miles on it and runs a little rough. I've never worked on a 2.3, always working on the 5.0. Anyways, I'd like to replace the plugs and wires, but how the heck do you get to the spark plugs? It looks like the Intake manifold is in the...

    Roller rockers fit under stock valve covers?

    you should be able to remove the baffle on the inside of the valve cover and avoid any clearance issues. You can run 1.7's under stock valve covers if you remove the baffle. If you want to double check and be absolutely sure, clay the inside of your valve cover, turn the engine, and see if...

    86 GT front changed to a 87-up LX?

    The question isn't can you or can't you, the question is should you or shouldn't you? And the answer is no you should not. Your friend is an idiot if he does. He'll have to swap out the whole front end, all the moldings that go around the car, the window moldings and window trim, probably the...

    CHECK THIS OUT

    86 gt bumper conversion

    Another vote for keeping the 86 Front end on. You will regret converting the front end for many reasons. Sure it may be easy to swap the bumper over, however the modlings on an 86 are different than the moldings on an 87-93. So unless you upgrade all the moldings all the way around the car...

    favorite clutch?

    Did you give it a proper break in period as well as resurface the flywheel? Did you have your clutch cable adjusted properly? A properly adjusted cable along with a proper break in period is very criticle, otherwise your wasting 350+ dollars. Anyways my vote goes to the Centerforce D/F and...
