    Please help me solve my oil/pcv issues

    Do you have any pics of this, just curious as to how this could be done... Do you have the same thing on your car? I have the issues with the oil misting from my dip-stick as well... Thanks

    harmonic balancer install: is the specific tools a necessity?

    I would definately rent or use the loaner tools to remove the balancer, it makes things ten times easier to remove. Also, this wont apply to your case, but if you were to reuse the HB; undue stress to the outside of the HB is a big no no :nono: !!! That undue stress damages the HB for obvious...

    Real nice car...

    I was going to say something about that!!! It always makes me a little leary when things do not really seem like they would add up... Maybe he felt the brakes were sufficiant?!?! Then again, why spend that much on the car already and not invest $1200 on a good set of Brembos or even just some...

    Does Jegs give member discounts?

    When I lived in Ohio before moving to ATL, my friend was dating Jeg Kaufmans cousin and we would always have the hook-up. FMS valve covers were $20 out the door!!! Tires were cheap too. I have since lost contact with them in the past four years though....I'm going to have to look them up when...

    DAS Auto Shippers (Never Again...)

    He sent pics of them on the car at their facility for what it was worth. i don't think he would do a massive burn-out in their parking lot and then want to give me a sworn statement that they "were" new!!!

    DAS Auto Shippers (Never Again...)

    I know it's putting a lot of faith into the seller of the car, however, he was more than happy to get a notarized statement... That still may not mean much, but when you put that much time into a car and document it the way he did, why would you jepordize a sale of a car over tires? I trust...

    DAS Auto Shippers (Never Again...)

    Sounds like DAS auto and Pay-Pal use the same claims people. That is the answer I recieved from DAS "Sorry, Claim denied!" I still do not understand why I paid an extra amount of money for insurance when they wouldn't even let me use it to get new tires. Whats bad about them is that they...

    DAS Auto Shippers (Never Again...)

    Believe it or not, it was only four miles. But with a burnout, thats more than enough to roast the crap out of those soft Khumos!!! By the way, looks like I'm stuck down here for another month while these goof-ball buyers that said they were approved, actually get "Approved." Oh well, I am...

    Here are two shots, the one that has the penny was taken by my girlfriend as I am currently in the process of moving up to Ohio. The other was taken in Cali... Other than the DAS issue, the car is awesome...

    DAS Auto Shippers (Never Again...)

    The rest of the car was fine, they put a cover on the floor mat to keep it clean (Was jambed up behind the pedals protecting nothing though). I know what you mean about the customer service lines... Thats another joke with these guys, you have to be on hold for 15 typing in different numbers...

    DAS Auto Shippers (Never Again...)

    About a month ago, I stumbled across a nice Mustang on Corral.net. I talked with the gentleman for over 4 hours on the phone about the car the first night. He provided every receipt for just about every part on the car as well as hundreds of pictures ranging from the engine build to the first...

    Towing rear wheeled cars?

    Nah, it's fine... I am originally from Columbus, Ohio and moved to Georgia right out of high school four and a half years ago to persue a new career. Two companies later (same trade though) I think I have found a good company who treats their employee's like they should be treated and not like...

    Towing rear wheeled cars?

    I know, I am so stoked about finally moving up!!! I found a nice house for the price, a little on the small side, but nice piece of land. I'll be adding a two car garage ASAP (Poor car doesn't get to see my tax money this year...)!!! I miss driving the Mustang on nice days like we have been...

    Towing rear wheeled cars?

    Yeah, I figured I would have to unbolt the drive-shaft, was trying to avoid doing that....Pros and cons of not doing it; five speed truck.... I'll be right in your neck of the woods then!!! I'm moving to Springboro near 741. I'll be up next week on the 30th! The Stang is in C-Bus already...

    Towing rear wheeled cars?

    I am moving from Georgia to Ohio and need to make one trip. So I am going to rent a car hauler and a truck. However, I have a 1996 Ranger I need to tow. They say the car dolly (two whels on, two off) is for front wheel drive cars. Can I tow the truck with that eventhough it's rear wheel...

    New Engine / Transmission + More Goodies! :)

    Keep your head in the game. It's a lot of money, but you never know, it could just be some minor things. We aren't trying to freak you out, just trying to warn you to do an inspection and get in there and tear the motor down. You are going to have to learn anyways... after all, you bought a...

    New Engine / Transmission + More Goodies! :)

    How long has it sat with no oil in it? You take a head off yet? How can you be so sure it was never boosted? After all the confusion with wether it was a 302, 306 or 308?!?!?! I was once like that as well, but after being burned in the past i have come to reallize that not everyone is as...
