    1989 mustang engine harness schematic

    Thanks for all the replies. I am doing a V8 swap in my 1991 and have a 89 harness for the computer which does not plug right in to the brown 8 pin connector I have on my body harness. The 89 harness has the black and gray connectors by the booster I am hoping to splice it together to get it to...

    If you have access to a scanner try a wiggle test in the connectors. I had a problem like that on my 1990 F-150 and the connector was bad going to the EGR. If I remember correctly the sensor on top of the egr is called the EVP. They are known to go bad as well. Have you checked the vaccum on the...

    Before it was a car, what did the word 'Camaro' mean?

    LOL Crossfire...circa 1982 Vette/Camaro. Exhaust did sound interesting out of those things.

    Check your fuel pressure while running and while driving. If it is a dual tank F-150 try switching tanks and see if that helps. If it does then suspect a fuel pump or FDM. Also check for vacuum to the fuel pressure regulator. Bad EGR or connector will do the symptoms you describe as well.

    help me with tfs valve springs

    Did you give him the heads off your car or did they change the springs with the heads on the car? Spacers have nothing to do with your car running poorly. They just do them to shim up the springs for closing pressure.

    V8 swap, need help with wiring harness

    I am in the process of converting my 91 Notchback 2.3 to a 5.0. I have a engine harness from a 1989 Gt that I wanted to use but it seems the connectors by the brake booster are different. My 91 has a single brown 8 pin connector and the 89 harnes has two black and gray connectors. Can this combo...

    Keep Blowing Head Gasket, cylinder #5

    Did you have the intake milled when the heads were milled? The reason I ask is when you take a lot off the heads it causes the intake to sit higher on the block and it won't seal as well against the heads and it could cause a intake leak thus causing a lean condition.

    Keep Blowing Head Gasket, cylinder #5

    One other thing I forgot to mention is the head bolts. Depending on what size shot of n20 you use it can actually lift the heads while spraying it. A good set of ARP head bolts will help to keep the lifting down. If you are spraying the heck out of it you might want to consider putting studs in...

    Keep Blowing Head Gasket, cylinder #5

    Your heads were milled on a broach head miller which leaves the lines you describe. They are known to leak n20 with that method. You need to have the heads milled on a CBN head miller for a nice flat surface. If that is not available then an old belt miller will do but it won't look as nice.

    head swap troubles

    Take all of the bolts out of the heads and crank the car over a bit. The compression will pop the heads off the block. Make sure to pull the fuel pump relay so you don't have fuel dumping out everywhere.

    fuel line broke while driving...help needed

    You should replace those hose clamps on the filter with the right set up. That is your high pressure line running at 40 psi. The clamps are too tight and most likely ripped the fuel line causing your leak. The plastic coupler you are pointing at is the return line, not as much pressure as the...
