    Car momentarily cut out while driving..

    I did have a bad one once. I had broken the connector while putting the steering wheel shroud back on. The car would just cut out, kinda like this. Nothing a ziptie wouldn't fix. :)

    NO OIL PRESSURE

    Tow it home. Get a mechanical gauge on it. Start it and see what you 'really' have. I have a similar problem. After driving 15 minutes, mine will drop to 0 at idle, but is fine at throttle. I put a mechanical gauge on it, and turns out after it warms up, my pressure drops to around 10psi at...

    tfs stage 1 cam

    I personally don't favor the letter cams, and the TFS has a larger lift on the exhaust, which I like. You shouldn't have any added problems with emissions. And it does idle well. A nice lope to it. Scott B - No, neither. Soon hopefully. the the SOTP meter, I think I'm putting down around...

    91 GT - What needed for new suspension

    I plan on putting a 393 in it, A/C and PS will stay. Want it streetable, but I live in Bowling Green, where NMRA finals are, so I may go run it at Beech Bend once a month or so. No road coarses for sure, but I'de like to have handling at least as well as a 302 would, with the added weight of...

    FEW ?"s ....IM LOST

    Fords were meant to run with 1.6s IMHO. For full rollers, get some taller valve covers. Crane Cams and Trick Flow make good springs.

    91 GT - What needed for new suspension

    I just bought a 91 got, great interior/body. It lacks motor/tranny/rear end/front suspension. Basically what I want to build a good 393. What exactly do I need for the suspension on front and back. I know I need the rear end, upper/lower control arms, springs and shocks for the rear, but...

    Car momentarily cut out while driving..

    Apparently it is inside the distributor. Some say it's easier to just replace the distributor.

    I have no codes/MIL.. But the TPI was what I was wondering about myself. I'll look into the PIP also. Thanks guys, I think it's probably that.. I'll keep you updated.

    Car momentarily cut out while driving..

    I was driving down the interstate today, and my 90 LX 5.0 just cut completely out for a split second, and picked right back up. Like it was just coasting then right back on. Any ideas where the gremlin could be? Any ideas appreciated.

    Replaced EGR, problem solved. I had replaced the EGR sensor previously, to no avail. Thanks jrichker.

    Codes 35 and 85

    I should mention, I have the smog pump and air box removed. When I start my car, I can see the diaphram in the EGR opening and closing, and the idle surges accordingly. Like I said I have a new sensor on the EGR. Could this mean the EGR is bad? My wife's GT stays closed when started. Thanks...

    Codes 35 and 85

    I had a small engine fire, but got everything going good. Only thing, was I needed a upper/lower gasket. I used rtv, but it seemed like I had a leak, so tonight I put the right gasket on. Well, now my CEL is on, pulling codes 35 and 85. 35 has to do with the EGR sensor I think, and that is one...
