    What size fuse with a flex-a-lite fan

    I just got a used flex-a-lite fan, but it came without the wiring. I can handle the wiring as the manual on line is pretty good. It just doesn't say what size fuse to use on the 12Volt wire. I did a search, but didn't come up with anything.

    3G alternator and March Pulleys

    Yeah, the crank pulley was way smaller than the stock one (not sure how much). I was just worried about the water pump and alternator pulleys. Unfortunately, the pulleys are already on the car (except for the alternator pulley) so comparison pictures would be difficult.

    3G alternator and March Pulleys

    I bought a set of March power pulleys for 79-93 stangs, and as I was installing them I noticed a few things. 1) The water pump pulleys are the same size. Why? Shouldn't it be a little larger than the stock pulley? 2) I have a 3G alternator and the stock pulley on it is quite a bit larger...

    K&N Aircharger

    As someone else said it works without a tune. I installed a K&N a month back and have had no problems with it. With the factory tune. I gained power, and 2 mpg on the highway. No bad issues. 5.0 mustang and ford magazine did a cold air kit comparison a while back, one of the tested Kits was the...

    If you've had your fuel tank replaced, please read...

    Not around here. Pay attention the next time your at the station. Some are level, a lot are not. It's very rarely a large slope, but there is usually a noticeable slope of a few degrees.

    If you've had your fuel tank replaced, please read...

    I've had the same problem with my car as well. I discovered two things: 1) When filling up with gas, if I park on a slope with the back of the lower than the front it is almost impossible to fill up. If the front of the car is lower it works great. 2) Using the slowest speed setting at the...

    K & N Aircharger Kit Improved MPG

    Has anyone else tried a K&N Aircharger Kit on their 05+ GT. I bought one on ebay for $150 a few months back. It gave a seat of the pants boost and made the engine sound meaner when you mash the gas, but unexpectedly I'm getting better gas milage. No change in around town driving; still max out...

    3G Alternator Install Problems

    Okay so after doing some searching I belive the wire I am missing is called the stator wire. It should plug into the stator plug on the 3G. Where does this wire come from in case I need to make a new one? I cut the wrapping on the org/blk power wires back a as far as I could and I don't see the...

    3G Alternator Install Problems

    I pulled out an 3G alternator I had purchased a few months ago to install it. When I got to looking at my stock wiring I discovered that I dont have the white/black wire you are supposed to cut and splice the new plug on to. I suspect the previous owner did something funny here as I've found a...

    Problem with Cobra Brake Install

    Yeah, I agree. I apologize too. I think we should both just call it quits.

    Problem with Cobra Brake Install

    Wasn't trying to save a few bucks. It was always my plan to install everything correctly. But as I said above they weren't included with the brake parts I bought even though they were supposed to be. I contacted the ford parts department yesterday before posting, but they said the closest ones...

    Problem with Cobra Brake Install

    Okay so someone else already posted the moan brace thing. Sorry I got a little irritated. What I was really looking for was help, not nit picking. Anyway, yes I did install the correct booster and master cylinder. And let me just say that it required a sledge hammer and a lot of this :bang: ...

    Problem with Cobra Brake Install

    Actually if you look it up ford calls them: F4ZZ-2C366-A Moan Brace, R.R. F4ZZ-2C367-A Moan Brace, L.R. It's right there in the parts list for the instalation instructions bottom of page 2. If you want a copy I can email it to you. And yeah I'd love to install them, but I wanted...

    Yeah I need to order the moan brackets, but I wanted to make sure about the axles before I spent any money. Thanks, for the reply.

    Problem with Cobra Brake Install

    I installed SN95 Cobra brakes on my 86 Mustang GT. Other than not having installed the moan brackets (which I don't have yet) it is a complete setup from Ford Motorsport 5 lug axles to the correct cobra brake pads. Unfortunately I've been having an issue with the inner brake pads rubbing the...

    Need help with proper backspacing..86GT W/Cobra brake upgrade

    Probably, but I'm not sure. Actually I still have to fool with the brakes some because the pedal is to stiff. I'm using the SN95 master cylinder and booster like everyone said you should, but it doesn't feel great. In fact no matter where I adjust the rear brake bias to my rears stll lock up...

    Need help with proper backspacing..86GT W/Cobra brake upgrade

    I don't know if this helps or not, but I went with the ranger axles, for the stock track width, and 98' Mustang GT split rims (17x8) with 275/40 17s on my 86' GT and the fit is perfect. So if you can find out what the backspacing on those rims is you can calculate the backspacing you will need...
