    90 2.3 Auto Gas Mileage

    Ok..so what is the average speed you drive to achieve those numbers. I've never seen 30 mpg. I see about 22 - but then I drive often at 125-130 kmh (that's 75-80 mph)

    Help...

    Yes there are. Ford Motorsports, Racer Walsh, Esslinger, Crane, Wolverine. Many to choose from. Keep in mind - with Speed Density systems, they don't like too big of cam. This also the same if you have a auto (vacuum issues).

    Front seats

    Head to a wrecker, pull off a set from another fox. Or - you can do what I did, and install a set of recaros from a BMW.

    Suspension 5.0 vs. 2.3

    Yes I did do a spindle swap as I run the 11 inch rotor and 73mm caliper setup. You can still use the struts on a stock 2.3 spindle but you have to use spacers.

    Front seats

    Time to look for new seats. That is not safe.

    Hesitation problem

    Does it happen when the engine warms up? When cold how does it run - normally? Take a look at the exhaust pipe. Is there excessive black build up in the pipe?

    Suspension 5.0 vs. 2.3

    In short - yes you can. I used all OEM '93 Cobra struts and shocks on mine. Work great, especially when running lowering springs.

    Whats your exp's with Maaco???

    You can get a ok quality single stage paint (solid or metallic) from Pep Boys (for the US members, Partsource/Crappy Tire for us Canada members) or NAPA - whomever for about $70 a gallon. Rent an air compressor, buy a spray gun (with bleeder valve - unless you like sanding orange peel often)...

    rev limiter

    Yes I did. Noticed a little more bottom end, upper range pulled better. I was always having trouble at cruise speeds running lean, but that was cleared when remapped A/F look up table in the chip was used. The single bank chip has really come down in price, and even when you take into...

    They are made by Recaro if memory serves me right. You should be able to find a biz online that re-covers seats.

    rev limiter

    There are two types out there. I run a superchip 1100 module. Got it off ebay for $42. They are a piggy back chip for your stock speed density ecu. I had to get it custom programmed as I run a cam, header and intake. The other systems are Tweecer or EEC Tuner. They are for Mass Air systems...

    Yep, they are available for N/A use. I run one. Only downside - you have to run 91 octane.

    1990 2.3 NA problem

    Any mods - ie: header, larger exhaust piping, intake? The car gets it's A/F mix from the ECU when cold. When warm, the 02 sensor starts calling the shots on the A/F mix. If you have no header and exhaust mods, I would say that you may have an issue with your 02 sensor on it's way out...

    You can find the headers on ebay for reasonable cost.
