    Stock Driveshaft Critical Speed?

    Well you are not actually changing the drive shaft speed at any matching transmission gear ratio. The drive shaft rotational speed equals the engine rpm when the transmission gear ratio is 1:1. What is increased is the rear axle rotational speed.

    Engine Mustang Problem

    Is the distributor new or just a reman piece? Did you have to swap over the ignition module to the replaced distributor? These modules quite often fail when hot. I would look at this first.

    Surge/hesitation After Plugs

    May be fuel related. Test pressure with a gauge if possible at the schrader valve on the fuel rail. Look for fuel being present when you remove the vacuum line to the fuel pressure regulator (FPR). Also consider changing the fuel filter. It may be the oem piece. Clean the MAF element if you...

    No Fan/over Heating Issue!!

    Depending on the source the low fan won't come on until 210 - 220*F and high fan at about 230*. I had a situation similar to yours ( except the low fan only would come on). I could force the fans (high and low) to come on by supplying power directly to the fan motor connector. CCRM was good...

    Wheel Bearing And Rotors

    I keep forgetting this isn't sn95 specific.

    Fuel Useage Question

    Then in addition to all these variables you have to introduce the characteristics associated with the formation and propagation of the flame kernel as the fuel ignites. That's why I suspect the rated fuel consumption numbers the manufacture provides and the real world numbers are quite...

    Wheel Bearing And Rotors

    It's been a while since I swapped in a Mach 1 caliper and larger rotor but I thought the stock rotor and hub are two separate assemblies. IIRC the hub locking nut is torqued to about 275 ft lbs or some insane amount. I'll check the service manual when I get home tonight.

    Cranks But Wont Start

    Check the TFI and MAF connections.

    Cold Start Issue

    Check the harmonic balancer. Look for rubber protruding from the center on the engine side, wobble or any lateral movement. Common issue as the cars age. Has the timing been changed recently? If it has and the outer ring has slipped the reading will be incorrect. TFI hot or cold could be failing...

    Aode Slow 1st To 2nd Under Wot

    How's the 2-3 WOT shift? The auto's are programmed to shift WOT at about 5300. A shift kit will dramatically quicken the shift. The delay you experience may be due to hesitation in the 1-2 shift solenoid. As grounds are so important for all the electronics, remove and clean the battery to engine...

    SN95 Encountered Complication When Installing Blinkers

    Those are the corner light housings. That appears to be the picture of the connector. Colors are correct. Click here for the wiring diagram. You will need the other half of the connector to plug your pigtail into or you can buy a three wire connector and wire it in.

    SN95 Encountered Complication When Installing Blinkers

    I think we need to see a picture of what you are calling the "blinker housing and assembly" to ensure we are on the same page.

    SN95 Encountered Complication When Installing Blinkers

    Are you referring to the turn signal/parking light housing next to the headlights? The three wires are for the running light, turn signal and ground. The wires were probably just cut off so they should be fairly close to the housing.

    Cold Start Issue

    Check the voltage to the fuel pump with the engine off and then on. The 22 psi KOEO is suspicious. It should be close to 40 psi. Ground the fuel pump as illustrated to keep it on.

    94 V6 3.8l Odb Codes

    Test for power at both the switch and the a/c and go from there. Have you cleaned the MAF sensor element yet? Use only MAF, electrical contact or non-chlorinated brake cleaner.

    94 V6 3.8l Odb Codes

    Okay, clear the codes first to ensure they are current and not something that is ancient history. The A/C clutch not coming on is most often a failed cycling switch on the drier. Jump that connection and if the clutch engages the switch needs to be replaced. It can safely be removed as it sits...

    94 V6 3.8l Odb Codes

    Okay, what is it that you are trying to fix and what symptoms/issues are you trying to address?

    94 V6 3.8l Odb Codes

    I assume you have owned the car for some time based on the O2 reference. When was the last time you did a basic tune-up and what exactly did you replace? Have you ever removed and cleaned the battery to engine and engine to chassis grounds? Solid grounds are critical for proper sensor functions.

    Broken Vacuum Lines

    Just ask for vacuum tubing. It's sold by the foot and comes in many diameters. Repairs are always easy with this stuff. Don't worry about the oem stuff being plastic. Just make sure that it's snug when slipping it onto a nipple or between a section of broken plastic line that you cut out because...
