    Blocked fuel return line?

    I shoved those blue paper shop towels into the couplings to keep stuff out while the manifold sat on my garage floor. I made the mistake of not looking into the coupling to see if any towel got broken off before plugging in the return line :loser: I wonder if I can return my new FPR :rolleyes:

    TARGA TOP... go with me here

    Just looks weird to me. I could understand if it was a mid-engined car, but it's just a coupe with a giant slot cut in out of the roof. Besides, what a massive headache for what? Personally, I'd rather build a widebody kit for the time/effort involved.

    Oil separator review...

    Yeah, we were reasoning out whether it would be worth also doing one for the breather, but since it appears it stays petty dry, it's not worth it. I took a look at mine and the TB is pretty clean too, so really no need for another filter, just the PCV one.

    Blocked fuel return line?

    It primes to 38psi and holds it, but while idling, its steady at about 84-85 psi. As far as I can tell the gauge seems ok. I think the loudly ticking injectors and whining pump defend the high reading too. I may take it down to Oreilly and run codes. I suppose I could hook up the inverter...

    Oil separator review...

    That one is freaking nice. I may have to pick one up. For $112, it's a no-brainer once you see what the inside of the engine looks like after 100k miles. I'm wondering if it's worth buying one for the breather tube as well? Or maybe something cheaper, hardware store style for the breather?

    Blocked fuel return line?

    No luck tonight with a new FPR. Still at 85psi all the time and the pump is whining under pressure. Tomorrow night, I'm gonna pull the return line off and try to clear it with the air compressor nozzle rammed into it. Will I wreck the pump/injectors if I continue to drive it? I'm getting...

    Is my IAC bad?

    Did you check the fuel system? Your problem sounds like mine. I found that my fuel pressure is maxed out all the time, regardless of vacuum, which means the FPR could be bad or the return line is clogged. I'll find out tonight if it's what is causing my surging and rough/lopey idle.

    Blocked fuel return line?

    I'll just pick up a new one and see what happens. It's an easy enough change. By the time I have all the kinks worked out of this thing, almost every part of this motor & fuel system will be brand new :D

    Blocked fuel return line?

    So the car is up and running again after replacing the head gaskets and valve stem seals and a new water pump. Immediately, the idle loped more than it should and the engine has an erratic shake to it. Then I took it for a spin and noticed that anything more than very slight thottle causes the...

    How are the winter projects coming?

    I can't imagine the mess of metal dust around your work area :D

    Starting to ping a bit

    Given that you just changed the PCV, you might be burning oil (sucked in through the fresh PCV) and it may be caking carbon on one of the valves causing the ping. If that's true, there's not a lot you can do to fix it without running richer or pulling timing. Also, using a timing light, unhook...

    I remember when those came out, my brother and I put single 15" one in his 240SX. Tuned the ported box to 32Hz and it hit 151 dB with the mic about 8" from the windshield. It was good times :rlaugh: If you tune the box properly, it should work well for you. I had two 12" ones in my '95 and...

    Bad head gasket?

    If you have an air compressor, definitely do a leakage test first. Pick up a leakage tester form Harbor Freight (doesn't have to be a good one) and pressurize the cylinders, one at a time with a good 100psi if you can and look for bubbles in the bottle or girgling sounds in the head. Try to...

    If you have the patience, try using Hondabond HT on that gasket (from the Honda dealer). The stuff is 10x better than any Permatex product. Also, make sure you let it dry for at least a day before putting water back in. I typically apply the Hondabond, finger tighten the part on, then torque...

    1994 mustang GT rear speaker cover question

    As far as changing the speakers: If you care about the sound quality, I'd highly suggest bolting up a plywood baffle with some 6" or 5 1/4" component speakers there instead. Or at least mounting the 6x8s to a wood baffle. The factory metal and plastic up there just rattles and leaks like crazy.

    Took the mustang out for a ride...

    Dude, that kicks arse. I love the possibilities with those GoPro cameras. I went snowboarding last weekend and every other kid up there had one on their helmet. I thought, man I would love one of those, but realized it would just way too boring watching myself lumbering down the hill...

    An awesome knot

    That's pretty cool, but if you have a long distance between the knots, it can be kind of a mess if it isn't taught. If it needs tension, a trucker's hitch is they way to go and it can be adjusted easily. YouTube - Knot Tying Instructions & Uses : Tying Trucker's Hitch Knots I say the 4...

    Will a 347 work with stock H/C/I?

    If memory serves me right and this is the cam, here are the specs 35-351-8 - Xtreme Energy The grind is etched into the front of the cam, so I can pull off the retainer and look, or call the builder and see if they have a record of it.
