    98 Cobra battery drain

    Searched around a bit. Found a few good pieces of info. After letting the car sit for 45 min, checked parasitic draw test and we are getting 80 milliamp draw. My understanding from the search is that 50 milliamps is max for all Fords. Started pulling fuses one at a time and leaving them out...

    70 stang won't start

    Are you getting the solinoid to click every time you turn the ign switch from RUN to START? Where the positive battery cable attaches to the solinoid, there should be a ring terminal there that feeds power inside the car. Make sire that is a good connection. Make sure your batt cables where...

    Can't start Mustang...strange electrical gremlin?

    That sounds exactly like a cable with the terminal end corroded. Are the battery cable ends that go on the battery molded on or are there two bolts that clamp the end of the cable in the terminal? I bet if you wiggle the cable hard enough you will get the battery to "reset" as you describe or...

    new toy. (tool related)

    One thing I like is that I can get into some pretty tight places that I can't with the bigger nozzel. The shield gas dispersion is supposed to be better-not just gas running out the end, but a more directed stream to keep the welding area isolated better. Found the flier-Says Centerfire nozzels...

    new toy. (tool related)

    The flux core wire welding is dirtier. THere is more spatter I think. Just not as clean. The shield gas gives a cleaner weld, especially if the metal you're welding is clean bare metel and making good solid contact between the two parts-which is not always easy to do. The 75/25 mix posted...

    new toy. (tool related)

    Correction: The nozzle at work is a NST-3818B which recesses the tip (extends the nozzle) which helps keep the tip from fouling. Just have to keep it cleaned out. The one I listed above has the tip and nozzle flush. I am still running flux wire at home till I break down and buy a bottle...

    30 min one way? Next time you go trade up to a bigger bottle. If you are that far away, and you run out of gas, you're done. THere is another great upgrade you can do. http://www.bernardwelds.com/service/documents/Centerfirev1.2.pdf You are looking for the TT- series tips and the tapered...

    Part Question Regarding Rocker Panels

    You need to "fit" the gap with body shims. Not enough shims, and the bolt will draw the fender up and make t bow outward, conversely, you can put in too many and it will pul the fender down and in. If it lines up good ith the dor then you simply shim the gap to cover the distance and tighten the...

    Red Oxide Primer - undercarriage question

    You can also use RustSeal paint which some vendors are now carrying instead of POR-15. It comes in colors including Red Oxide. We keep it on the shelf but it's got a much higher sheen than the original coating put on the car, which is appealing to some people. We are doing a 67 Prostreet car we...

    Headlight help needed

    If you have fog lights in the grill, are they wired to come on as well as the hi beam headlight? It sounds to me like you are overloading the headlight switch and tripping the internal circuit breaker. The fog lights (if you have them) should be on their own switched circuit. If this is not the...

    Arm rest question

    I don't know if I wouldn't try dyeing or painting a white one rather than a black one. It's supposed to be easier to cover lighter colors with darker colors? If you have to recolor one, the spray bomb is not the way to go. WHen I spray interior panels that are plastic, I use an adhesion agent...
