    O2 sensor issues and error codes

    Srothfuss- Originally I figured it was the fuel pump in upper RPM range because I had the original pump still and it seemed weak with only 36psi at idle and dropped to 30-32 when I revved the engine. I just installed a 190lph pump and now pressure is 38psi idle and increases to 40 as I rev the...

    O2 sensor issues and error codes

    I thought white-ish sensors was odd. They have approximately 18-20k miles on the sensors. I changed them close to 3 years ago. The engine is great mechanically for 140K miles. It doesn't use much oil for that many miles at all, approximately 2/3ds of a quart in 3,000 miles. There isn't any...

    5.0 vs 4.6

    As I recall a '72 Z28 is no slouch by any means, As such I'd almost expect it to win against a '96 GT. If its in good shape etc. I wouldn't use the '72 as a good comparo for your car, cuz he'd probably walk you too. I'd say throw the 3.55's in and show him the "Cheese Graters" :flag: --...

    5.0 vs 4.6

    Ok you are probably right on that one, I was thinking an electronically controlled transmission such as my T-birds 4R70W, the E4OD and possibly even the AODE. Thats what I read about a chip when I had my T-Bird, I decided to sell the car and get the 5-spd Stang, but when I was planning to build...

    O2 sensor issues and error codes

    This might be a little bit long with explanation but bare with me. I'm working on an intermittent check engine light issue that is getting more frequent and longer intervals. I get a check engine light after the car warms up and I drive for a while maybe 10-20 minutes the light will come on...

    The Wanna-be Mustang :(

    Me likey.... I'd like to get ahold of one of those myself some time. I've been wanting to message a 5.4L PI from a 99+ truck and stick it in one with a shift kit, high stall and 4.10 posi out back. The Crown Vic, when setup aggressively is very reminiscent of the old 60's-70's muscle cars...

    5.0 vs 4.6

    I was just going to say that.. I think the '97 was rated the same and then 225 for '98, but I don't have my book in front of me so I'm not 100% on that. Either way be glad he's not got a 99+ PI car, or PI stuff on his '96 or he will really open the margin of victory. The main problem I...

    Ticking goes away after 5 min.

    I'd have to say its probably old and worn lifters also, but if it were a Ford Modular or a GM product I'd probably say "Piston Slap"

    Shorty Headers

    Thanks guys, all good points. :nice: What about heat from the equal length headers. Do they have heat issues in the engine compartment as to require some sort of heat extractor? Also, FarBeyondDriven jogged my memory a bit. A buddy of mine has a 92 GT with a built 306, but also has...

    I'm new here, few questions...

    I agree with timewarped, I suppose it does depend on your "Neck of the woods" as to the values of a Mustang. Out this way a pretty clean running fox with 110K that simply needs a little paint and other TLC is probably worth a grand more than that, especially an LX Notch. I think you'll...

    Shorty Headers

    I'm still setting up my christmas present to myself/car. I got to thinking that a good set of shorty headers would be a good upgrade since I still have the stock units. Then I found this thread: http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=587649 '04sleeper talked about the fact that on...

    Help me choose the right Mustang

    I'm a fan of the GT, but then I like Mustangs. With a few exceptions of course, but I think that timewarped had some very good points. In that honestly you shouldn't be too overly obsessed in finding a car with just exactly the right options. I think you should look around for a good...

    Help me choose the right Mustang

    I'd say that equal condition/driver, the auto 3.27 would be about par to a stick 2.73 but probably not the 3.08 car. Thats my thoughts anyway. Btw, nice GTA. There is nothing wrong with a GTA, but welcome to Mustangs anyway! :D If your GTA is like the GTA's here in the states its a TPI...

    Electrical question and code 91,41

    Thats the doohicky I was talking about. Its a good thing to know. I tried searching for every word I could think of except Computer, simply because I didn't know what it went too. So it is a glass fuse holder then? Well I'm atleast glad to know what it was for, but its probably not...

    Electrical question and code 91,41

    The electrical question: On the negative battery cable, there is a smaller wire that travels from the post to a bolt on the inner fender (Ground), then into a smaller black/yellow wire (Thats what colors it looks like to me anyway). The smaller wire has, what looks to be, a fusable link then...

    Planning Winter Upgrades

    Oh maybe I'll switch the budget from an AFPR to an quadrant and adjuster then. I can afford both though so if I need both its not an issue. However if I change from a 38 psi pump to a 100 psi pump isn't that going to "overpower" the injectors or other and cause possible problems? I'm afraid...

    Which intake is better?

    Just for comparison sake... how would the TF Street Heat intake stack-up. My understanding is that its on a level playing field with EB Performer and Cobra intakes. Set for low end, idle-5500 RPM gains....
