    89 Sunroof stripping

    No it doesn't. The weatherstripping looks and works pretty much like door jam or hatch/trunk weatherstripping. Only difference from thye sunroof stuff as compared to the door and trunk stuff is it's slotting, cut, and that the surface of the stuff is covered in felt-like material. I think I...

    89 Sunroof stripping

    This is the stuff that fits on the glass right? The weatherstripping is beaded in such a way it looks like felt right? The weatherstripping is slotted and you just snap it on the sunroof like you would if you were putting weatherstripping around your door frames. It goes around the frame...

    87 Octane versus 92 Octane? What's the diff?

    Yeah, exactly. Actually the BMW is leased and he's trying to cheap his way out of saving a few bucks. Would running the 87 show on a tune-up? I mean, say he runs on 87 for a year and goes for a tune-up as per his lease agreement. Would the dealership know he was running low octane based on...

    87 Octane versus 92 Octane? What's the diff?

    Guys, I have a buddy of mine that's being eaten alive by escalating gas prices on the premium 92 Octane he fills into his BMW. He asked me a question what would happen if he were to fill up on 87 instead of the usual 92. I asked him what his owners manual tells him to fill up on but the guy...

    Oil leaking from Shock/Strut?

    You're going to need to change those out. They are toast once they start leaking and if you haven't noticed it yet, you will notice soon that your car will bounce around a lot more. Mine was leaking and bouncing bigtime 4 years back. I had them swapped out and now the ride is totally different.

    H-pipe HEAVEN

    You guys are soooooooooooooooooooo lucky to be able to get away with driving with off-road anythings! Here in Ontario Canada, we've got stupid emissions laws and in order to run an off-road, I'd have to temporarily swap between stock and off-road every 2 years just to pass the test :(...

    I'm missing a clamp on one of my Check Valves!

    I was looking at my engine in my 1990 5.0 last night and I was looking over the conditions of the hoses connecting all of my check valves together. I found it odd that the one end of the hose coming from the upper check valve to the middle check valve (you know, where 3 hoses connect to it)...

    What do you guys think of WATER WETTER?

    I was in the parts store today and came across the bottles of Redline "Water Wetter". The fluid looks like fruit punch and is supposed to lower your running temps by 20 F degrees. Any truth to this????????????? A couple more questions. Can I add this to my existing mix of Prestone Green...

    Speedometer Problem helpppp

    For your 91, you'll need a speedo between 90-93. Sounds like you have at most an 89. Not only won't it fit into your 91 due to the air bag, but the speedo doesn't go up as high as the 90-93 do. The 90-93 are 140 mph. The 89 only goes to 125 mph I think.

    LX taillight not sitting flush

    No, the 87-93 LX lenses are more "bubbled" and you won't have the same problem as the 86 GT lenses. I'm part of this club also, I bought a pair of the 86 GT's, stripped them black, and they are not flush either. Does this mean the 87-93 hatches are longer and the 86's were...

    white face overlay install ??

    You shouldn't have to use any glue if you got a good set of Mac overlays. I found the glue on the Macs to be more than adequate. Not only that, but in order to peel off the old faces, you'll have to unscrew some tiny hold-down screws. These screws also aid in keeping the faces down on the...

    Sunroof Leaking Goodness

    If you're going to be unscrewing those 2 latch bolts, make sure you loosen the allen screws first or you may end up shattering the glass. Once up loosen those 2 allen keys, the bolts unscrew real easy. Really, it's the allen screws which keep the bolts and latch tight as the bolts screw into...

    LX Tailights on a GT

    I have the 86GT's pin stripped on my 1990 LX hatch and yes, they are slightly recessed. But only someone who knows would notice this. It's really suttle.

    LX Tailights on a GT

    The taillight housings have all been pretty much the same since 1985 I think. At least to 86 as I just installed 86GT's made into Cloned stripped SVO's onto my 1990. The mounting bolts are in the same places throughout the years. You'll have to get some sylicon sealer, pry out the old...

    Coolant leak

    Your rad either has a hole in it, or the water pump is shot. I think it's your pump though just based on where you said the leak was. I'm assuming you checked all your rubber hoses for any cracks or splits?

    how big are our gas tanks?

    We talking 270km highway, or inner city, or a mix of both? I get about 420km highway only. City you can cut that in half to about 225km. Personally, I could care less! I didn't buy this car based on fuel efficiency. It's purely on lifestyle baby :)

    Question about Engine Compartment light on foxbody?

    Did all foxbody Mustangs come with these or was this an option? If it was an option, did the car still come equiped with the wiring under the hood so that this could be hooked up to the cars electrical system or is this an extra install? How did/does this light system work? Is it switch...

    Rivet size for plastic flaps along base of engine bay?

    Yeah, I know, but you couldn't really tell unless up got up under the car right up close. As long as they do the job and I don't lose the flap on the road, I'm happy :)

    Rivet size for plastic flaps along base of engine bay?

    Do you think the push-pins used to install the interior door panels would work just as well?????
