    GER transmission!!!!

    So maybe it the shaft, or maybe it's the Torque convertor that went south. I had the same problem on my pontiac years ago, and the TC was shot as well as the bands. Debating what it is won't fix it. 12 years is usually at the end of an automatics life with usual miles on it. Only way to know...

    GER transmission!!!!

    You got it 3 weeks ago. The car or the transmission? Did you install it yourself or did a mechanic? Like the above post says, you need to go to any of these companies or people to determine your problem. Diagnosing this over a forum can be difficult. I can be an internal failure of the...

    Failed Pa Emissions

    Hmm, you said you barely drove it since September. If your under 5000 miles, your exempt from the test. But you still have to pay for the sticker, which is usually half the cost. But depending on where you live, will depend on the testing your required. Here is a link to find out. In my...

    How to clean rubber molding on doors?

    I did mine years ago with rubbing compound and then waxed them. Looked great ever since. It did take some time, but it didn't take an hour per door or panel.

    93 GT or Cobra?

    I'm sure your not paying any extra on the insurance. But the Cobra moniker was used for plain GT's for Mustangs in Canada back in the day, so maybe it's a carry over/cross reference. But like ddonaca posted there was an actual 1993 Mustang Cobra that was limited production car. Drive it...

    AC NOT BLOWING

    Look up under the dash near the center console. See if all your vacuum lines are attached. The yellow line should be hooked up into a metal cylinder attached to the console frame, it sometimes comes undone and will cause the problem you described.

    AOD downshift question...

    Not normal. How long has it been doing this? The bushing for the TV cable might have broken. Open the hood and look at your throttle body and see if the TV cable,(the one that goes to the trans) is popped into a plastic bushing on the throttle body blade where the accelerator cable is...

    86 GT AOD, late 2nd, no D or OD

    Adjust the linkage and make sure you have the TV cable hooked up to your throttle body. Without this cable adjusted properly, you can quickly burn up the bands. By the sound of your trans, you might have done that already. Check this link to help. Ford AOD Transmission

    Mufflers For dummies

    Most catbacks will be louder, not quieter than the stock mufflers. Dynomax and or Flowmaster 3 chambers mufflers come close, but will be slightly louder. You can just replace the mufflers if you want, but most probably your tailpipes and connecting pipes are rusted to the muffler, so unless...

    please help with massive coolant leak (pics)

    You stared in the right direction but there is a couple of more areas to look. The best way to check is to warm up the car, enough for the thermostat to open. Open the hood and look to see where the leak is coming from. Having the car hot will help. Check the heater hoses again, and the...

    Help!!! No Turn Signals

    Right, does your fan work? If not, then take off the plastic panels under the sterring wheel. A long beige plug attached to the steering column usually comes loose with time. Plug it back in and wire tie to keep it coming loose again.

    Opinions on a good fuel pump.

    Hmmm, When my pump died, it would start most times, but then other times it would let me sit. I had to "prime it" key on and off a couple times before the pump would kick on and start the car. Once running, if was fine. This was back in the day when I forgot to change the fuel filter for a...

    Oil consumption.. compression test results.. help!

    Oil problem aside, the fouled plug might be from a bad wire on that plug. Check the voltage resistance on that wire to confirm.

    Hatch Striker Adjustment

    Like was mentioned by others, it should "Pop" when you turn the key to unlock. I would look at the hatch shocks first. Are they the originals or new replacements? It is hard to lift? Then I would think you need new shocks. You can get these at autozone and other autoparts stores for around...
