    67 Alternator NOT Charging Battery / What's this wire?

    Lets look at the diagram then for a 67... So, you have a current draw that stops when you pull the black w/yellow ring term wire from the solinoid-this should be wire 37B in the diagram. It does feed the fusebox. It also provides the path for the alt to charge the battery. Couple things to...

    65 E-brake tip

    They do work. Couple things to check that will help. The rear drums should be true-exactly round and not egg shaped. If they have been turned a bunch of times, that doesen't seem to help either. I'vehad better luck with new drums. Mostimportant isthat the rear brake shoes need to be adjusted...

    67 Alternator NOT Charging Battery / What's this wire?

    Is one of the doors open? The courtasy lights will draw current. THe ring term you pulled off should be the feed to the fuse box. I suspect you are not getting 12v to the field winding or F term on the alt from the VR. I lost the connection to my F: drive, can't get to my pictures right...

    Ignition wires smoking in my '70

    If you have the time and skills to solder correctly, it's the most effective. Correct soldering takes practice and experiance. THe bigger the blob the better the job is not the way to go...I've pitched all the standard crimp connectors and collected a large assortment of heat shrink crimps. THey...

    1964 1/2 Mustang Starter Solenoid

    oh9, the lable on the S term says "to Starter" should be "From ign switch in Start" I think it must just be a typo? THat what Tim65GT was trying to clarify...

    Ignition wires smoking in my '70

    Wow. The wire that got it worst is the Red w/green strip. It looks like it is wire 16 that goes to the coil. You can save the plug, just crimp on a male and female bullet connector to the new wire at the plug to go around it and still be able to disconnect it. The other wire it took out is...

    Finding Toploader Neutral Position?

    THe two ears closest to the front have three positions each. Center is neutral. The rear one is two positions-reverse or neutral. Set the front ones to neutral, turn the input shaft. If the output shaft is going in the opposite direction, it's in reverse...

    Ignition wires smoking in my '70

    OK, I got ahead of myself. NAPAONLINE You can order a new ignition switch for a 1970 mustang and it will be the correct switch-but it will have the wrong connector on it. Sorry for the confusion. I actually got a defective one-the return spring was broken or too weak. Wouldn't return...

    Ignition wires smoking in my '70

    You can use a 71 switch. I have done it twice. Cut the plug off the old one and splice it on to the 71 switch. Too easy. THe hard part is if you don't have a 70 switch to start with. If you stagger the splices, you can fit it all inside the plastic cover. (which I guess is now disintegrated...)...

    66 Fastback trans options

    What to do. I finished stripping my 2nd 66 FB project car today. This is a real "A" code 4 spd car. THe 289 looks original - C6AE-6015-C, but the problem is the trans. Someone took the 4 spd and stuffed in a loser 3 spd. Even bolted the 4 spd shifter on it. So, my plan was an all original...

    Sash rails that support roof seals- stainless

    I've used these guys for hard to find stuff. If you have the original Ford part number you can search for it yourself, or just give them a call and let them find it. I think they are overpriced, so watch out for sticker shock if they have it. You should be able to come up with these with some...

    Undercarriage squeaks driving me crazy

    One part that will squeak a lot is the upper A arm bushings. THey have grease fittings (usually-if they arn't broken off) and you can try greasing them, but by the time they start squeaking its too late. If you do decide to replace the bushings to see if that's it, buy the whole A arm(s), it's...

    where can I find a brake light switch operated off hydraulic pressure?

    The original electric switch has two male spade terminals on it. You don't need a harness, you need two wires with female spade lugs crimped on them. Plug right in. Couldn't be easier, at least way easier than plumbing a presure switch & you would have to run the two wires out to the pressure...

    Where'd my thread go? Moderator, please delete. WHen I jumped to the Roush forum, there where only two threads, so I started another one. After I posted they were all back! So, this thread is a mistake. Sorry for the double thread.

    power stering

    THis is any easy and common mod to make if you are using the stock 5.0 serpintine belt system. You will have to cut your early style pressure line, so if you don't want to do that, you will have to buy another one and keep your original, and you will need a late model pressure line-87-93...
