    Install Time for this???

    It does look like a 2 to 3 hr job. I think 200 would be a fair price to play. I'm not sure but he may need specail equipment to bled air from the ABS system if air gets into it. It may be worth it to pay him for this job. Pearl02.

    first 4.6 for me, odd problem

    Ok, I ran a few test yesterday. I hooked up my scan tool and did some live data logging. The 02 sensor in question is on bank2(drivers side) downstream of the cat. That sensor seems to be a little slow but not to bad compared to the one on bank1. I was gonna flip flop them out and reset the...

    ALL 99-04 GTs have 3.27 gears?

    Yes. However, you can't go by that tag. I now have 3.73's and my tag still says 3.27. Ask the owner what gears it has in it. Pearl02.

    Testing Fuel Pressure

    Wmburns, don't sell yourself short. Your doing a great job of helping 03scgt out. Your very sharp on this stuff. I wish I could help out but this is beyond me. I'm starting to understand better about how the pcm works. I just purchased a Innova/Equus 3130 scan tool a couple of month's ago...

    first 4.6 for me, odd problem

    That damn P0430 code must be going around. My car set off a "ses" light tonight. Thats the code I pulled with my scan tool. This is what the code means: Catalyst System Efficiency Below Threshold (Bank 2). I either have an exhaust leak, bad cat or bad O2 sensor. I bought my MRT catted...

    Going to Test drive a 2010

    Yea, there a lot of deal on 05-09 GT's. I really like those 2010 models. I also got a chance to sit in one at the car show. I'm like you, I never buy a new car again. I'm thinking about buying another Stang next summer. It will either be between 07-2010 GT. However, summer is a long ways...

    Who uses premium gas in their 2v 4.6?

    Like everyone else said don't run premium fuel in your car unless it's tune to do so. I work for a gas pipeline company. Our lab runs test for the quality control of all the products we handle. They use what we car a "knock" engine for octane testing. It's just a one cylinder engine bolted...

    What is exactly the point of Trac Con!

    You should disable it if you get stuck in the snow. The owners manual tells you to disable it if you get the car stuck in anything. I've had to disable mine a couple of times. If you don't disable it, the engine can stall. About that scanner,you want one that does more than read codes. You...

    Pulling an engine

    I haven't pulled a engine in a long time. I'm not sure how hard it would be to pull one out of our cars. I believe you can do it. Mark your wire harnesses and disconnect everything. Remove your hood and find a place to connect your engine hoist. Just left the engine out slowly. Get a buddy...

    Battery Drain (Not A Stang)

    This is how I was going to start my test. I also thought that the alt might have a bad diode. I check it out. Thanks. It has a stock radio with no high power amp. Thanks. The dealer and Advanced auto checked out the charging system. Thanks Kilgore. Didn't think about this one...

    Battery Drain (Not A Stang)

    The car is a 2000 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT. A couple of months ago, I had to put a battery in the car. The battery I replaced was over 2yrs old. That morning the car would just barely start. I used my voltmeter and the the battery was showing 10.9 volts. With the engine running I hd 14.5volts...

    No $$$ for Mods...?

    Your right about our winter drivers here in Kansas. The first snow fall there will be a lot of accidents. As we move through winter, things get better. It's like everyone forgets how bad the roads can get. For the mods, just try to save up for them. You already have the car stored away so...

    No $$$ for Mods...?

    It would be nice to be able to drive the Stang all yr round. It's very hard to put it up for the winter. I do drive it some on nice winter days. You would really understand once you try driving on snowy and icy roads without sonw tires. These cars just plain suck when driven on snow and ice...
