    Proportionary Brake Valve Rebuild

    My drivers side front brake is not getting any fluid. I took the line off at the valve and nothing coming out there either. I've been told you can take them apart and clean them. Anyone ever try it and have pics?

    Neutral Safety Switch

    OK, disconnected the shift lever. Put in neutral and set the alignment on the NSS. The car trys to start in neutral. When I put it in park it didn't try to start. I was under the car and had a friend try to start it. If I wiggle the shifter it tried to start in park. Any ideas what might be wrong?

    Neutral Safety Switch

    Hey guys, put the trany in the car. Now it will only try to start when in neutral. My question is, when adjusting the shifter linkage, do I tighten the bolt when in park or neutral? I checked the adjustment on the neutral safety switch, it seems ok. Could the switch be bad?

    Eliminating A/C without a bracket/pulley?

    Does anyone know where I can get the power steering housing bracket? Not the delete kit but the housing bracket its self. I called prestige mustang in georgia and they want $75. That just seems like a lot for a bracket from a junk yard.

    Question on my 79 wiring

    Thanks for the info. Is the Chilton that clear on the wiring? Or do you just know how to read wire diagrams? I've been looking at the Haynes manual. I see the DG - Y D on one side of the coil and the R - LG on the other side. But, I couldn't tell which was (+) and which was (-).
