    Can you take off the Mach1 Decals?

    A lot depends on the type of adhesive used. Some adhesives like the ultra aggressive acrylic adhesive used on most metalic and reflective stickers are almost imposssible to remove, others like normal cast or calendered vinyl are relatively easy (most commercial a glue removers will work). In...

    Can you take off the Mach1 Decals?

    The newer the car is the better your results are likely to be, less chance for the paint to have time to fade, vinyl to get brittle, etc. Ike

    Please Help Driveability Problem

    Still no update from me, the problem seems to be getting better, even on cold mornings (which have been rare the last month or two), I have changed spark plugs and added a cold air intake since this started, but it does still happen. Ike

    2001 Gt

    Its not discrimination when they have lots of statistics to back it up, regardless of what you think about the issue all mustang drivers must admit these cars are not the most tame of cars.

    what 75mm t/b should i get. and where to order bfg dr's

    I have a BBK 75mm unit, it works, what else is there to say, quality is at best acceptable. The throttle blade itself is a bit jagged around the edge by modern CNC machined standards, it looks as though someone cut it out by hand, but it does seem to do its job, in general it does not have the...

    $500 to spend need some advice

    Ok, a couple of comments here, first I paid $100 to have my catback welded in, so I think $150 just to have it installed is very high. Second note I installed my springs and shocks myself, ran into several unexpected complications (including getting my floor jack stuck under the car when...

    Idle Problem???

    I am on my third one, $90.08 at the local Ford dealer after tax, its insane to pay them over $200 to install it given it is a 5 minute job. (2 screws, 1 quick disconnect electrical fitting and a pop off hose). The only reason I have bought them from Ford in the past is they were in stock. Ike

    How much? (Gas mileage)

    Last spring I made a 1,9000 mile round trip drive to west Texas in my 99GT, the car was fairly heavily loaded down (probably 600 or so pounds total), I averaged around 28 mpg, speeds averaging around 75 mph in east texas and 90mph in west texas. (I had one scare on the drive, in the middle of...

    Strange rear end sound

    I have checked some of those(brakes, U-joint, but not the pinion flange bolts), I will go through and check the rest, although this does not have the usualy rubbing its more of a distinct "thwap", also it is not very loud (it can barely be heard over the stock radio at mid volume levels). One...

    Strange rear end sound

    For the last couple of months I have had an intermittent sound coming from the general area of the rear of the car at highway speeds(sometimes it lasts for a few seconds other times for half an hour). It is a very strange sound, almost like something is tied around the driveshaft and is...

    ??? about Magnaflow X-pipe w/cats???

    One note, make sure to keep the left and right sensors on the correct side, they are not all interchangable (I think its the front sensors that are different model numbers on each side). Ike

    Cobra/Mustang tail light questions.

    Karkraft sells a conversion kit to make the Cobra taillights work on a GT, they say on their web page that the wiring harness is different, exactly how I don't know. Ike

    The catted X is only a little louder than the stock H, mostly it changes the pitch of of the exhuast note. Ike

    How long are the stock spark plugs good for

    There is a bolt holding the coil on plug units down (5 or 6 mm I think) , after unscrewing them they come off just like regular spark plug wires (pull on the rubber part) Ike

    C&L inlet tube

    The newer (either 02 or 03 and up) mustangs use a different MAF where the IAT is integrated into the MAF, the 99-01 models have a seperate IAT located just after the MAF. Ike

    04 police crown vic can WHIP on my 98

    I read sometime last year on Blue Oval News that Ford had announced that upcoming (either 03 or 04) Crown Vic Police models would have the 4.6 DOCH making 305 HP at the crank (I assume this is some varient of the Cobra/Mach 1 motor) Ike

    99&UP HEADLAMP REPLACEMENT

    The best price I have found on OEM smoked (01+ style) lights is karkraft.com for $130 each, I got lucky and found a set of low mileage take off older style clear ones for $50 each (I don't like the smoked look). I loked at some of the aftermarket units at Fun Ford Weekend last Sept. in Ennis...
