    Mustang Help

    You will find it to be somewhat of a bother in stop and go traffic but not a real issue once you are used to it. You can always put it in neutral and release the clutch at long lights and such and then pay attention to the light changing process so you can slip it back in gear and be ready when...

    Based on my experience, not heavy at all but it does depend on what you are used to. My wife has no issue with it.

    Fuse Keeps Blowning Help Please

    Fuse #7 is the interior lights and the gem. If the interior lights all work without the fuse blowing, you might want to research the GEM....General Eloctronic Module.

    Be sure to look over any car you buy from any location. If you do not have the ability, take it to a mechanic. I bought an 02 that had been lowered with quality parts.....rode like it had solid tires...thought the shocks were bad based on po. Other mods were done so so. The 00 I bought in 07 was...

    Water should blow out and dry when you start the car. Driving it in a deep water puddle should not cause water to get into the exhaust.

    Battety, Alarm? Uggh.

    Most batteries have caps that pry off....be careful because it is acid and will burn.....the level of the "water" should be up to the bottom of the opening. You use distilled water only. Any parts house will show you how to check it. The battery tender is a small battery charger that can be...

    Battety, Alarm? Uggh.

    I agree with the testing. Worst thing on a battery is not to use it. Once you get it going again, get a battery tender that automatically monitors the battery voltage and then just monitor the fluid level monthly.

    2002 Mustang Gt With New Battery But Won't Start

    Hopefully you cleaned the cables when you installed the new battery. Also, what does the voltage drop to when you turn the key to start? Possibly the starter is hanging up.

    Rear Brake Problems

    Possibly there was air that got into the abs control module under the hood if the master cylinder got to low at any time. Some say the only way to bleed that is to have the tool to activate the solenoids to get full fluid movement, others say it just takes longer to get the air out without the...

    Rear Brake Problems

    Are the bleed screws both on the top of the cailpers......have seen some places selling one type fits both sides. That causes bleeding issues. Emergency brake is a totally separate set of shoes and operating system. We're the brakes functioning before the work? Are you bleeding them with a...

    2002 Mustang Won't Start...please Help

    The only way to know the battery is good is to take it to a local chain parts store for a free charge and condition check. That sounds like the issue, a weak battery. Sometimes a bad battey will still not work when jumped.

    Fuel Sending Woes And Headaches

    Not sure how the wiring attaches to the instrument cluster but I would consider pulling it to check all the conections. Also, try letting the car idle in the drive for the time it takes to drive that mile....that might clue you if it is movement or current overload that causes it to fail.
