    Fuel Rail Lines Question

    oh, sorry i was thinking of either a hack saw or die-grinder. i dont think there will be room enough for a tubing cutter there, but its not really an issue after looking more closely at what i have. i can probably flare the end without cutting it.

    Fuel Rail Lines Question

    i used a boxcutter to remove the line from the hardline, so i cant really splice it like that. Do those lines just go on with force?

    you can use zip ties to secure the overflow tank. the oem water pump is good. double check that its the right one. some water pumps are reverse rotation. If you do the head gasket, replace ALL the gaskets you remove to the manufacturers spec. torques. Dont overtorque them. replace your PCV...

    any mods to the car? Dont forget the throwout bearing and flywheel when you do the clutch. If its stock, the oem clutch would be fine. Im pretty happy with my centerforce dual friction but its no race car.

    Help! First Foxbody, Having Mystery Oil Leak

    check your passenger side carpet near the firewall for coolant. The heater core for your interior heat is behind the dash on the passenger side, and when they leak (possibly from overheating) they drip coolant onto the floor in the car. That could be the noise you heard.

    Exhaust Leak At Header Flange And Pipe

    if you know where the leak is, try loosening up the flange and re-tightening it. if its bent, you can either fix or replace the part. Exhaust fumes are no joke. That muffler will likely cause the same problem, and should be replaced as well. Unless the hole is small enough to weld shut.

    Engine Please Help With These Afr Valves

    i would measure the valves you have and compare them to the numbers listed on summit. I would also try contacting someone else at afr who can help you with choosing the correct part to buy.

    no, man. i dont think thats how it works. When its low on coolant, you have to fill the radiator with 50/50 coolant and water to the top. forget the overflow tank for now. It should be empty. since you got air in the system from the hose or the thermostat change, you have to seal it all up...

    Another Stumbling/stuttering Under Acceleration Thread.

    when my car used to do this, it ended up being a bad MAF. If you have someone local with the same injector size (MAF is calibrated to injector size) and a top running car, try swapping MAFs to see if your issue clears up. hope this helps.

    MAF / twEECer advice

    so if megasquirt replaces the ecu, would it still need the tweecer? (or quarterhorse) or would the megasquirt allow for all the same adjustments? for example... if i build a 408, will it need tweecer tuning if i get the megasquirt ecu? is there any advantage to just the megasquirt over a stock...

    Getting Ready To Pull My Motor... Tdc Question.

    I broke a head gasket between the #6 & #7 cylinders, causing a misfire and before i knew what the problem was, i revved the motor and (only at high rpms) i could hear a loud clacking noise from what seemed like it was inside the motor. At that time, i assumed i broke an internal part like a rod...
