    Charged Stang Hesitating or Missing on hard Acceleration

    Well, you could do it like the "primitive man," and disconnect each one when at idle. If the engine stumbles, then that coil is good. If there's no change, then you my friend, have found your malfunction.. I'm not sure how the shop manual does it, probably by measuring resistance across the...

    AOD Tranny Issue

    I would think High line pressure would quicken the shifts, since you're actuating faster.. JT

    Still having vibration issues..

    Is anyone still following along?? So yesterday I installed the Rear Diff. Girdle, and between getting Permatex in my hair, and about an accidental 2qts of Gear oil on the street, it wasn't such a bad day after all.. I switched to 80-145w Gear oil, just regular Petro, and it quieted...

    Still having vibration issues..

    While I was sitting around this morning, I thought of a few other things, and wanted to get a feeler for my thoughts.. Since I've gone w/ 315's out back, how much more of a beating are the gears going to take?? I also have a shiftkit, and do drive somewhat hard on the car sometimes...

    Still having vibration issues..

    Gotcha... Thanks for all the help... I just took the car out for a spin, and I'm definitely leaning towards the gears now, since there's a ton of howling. I just haven't driven it much lately.. Needless to say, I'm going the 4.10 or 4.30 route.. JT

    Still having vibration issues..

    Gotcha.. I'm still debating whether I should install my aluminum one yet, since I'm parking the car soon, for the winter... I keep thinking the pinion angle is messed up, whether the angle is off, or if the rear axle is crooked, causing the pinion angle to be off laterally... It sort of...

    Still having vibration issues..

    I guess I'm bringing this one back from a few months ago.. I need answers, hopefully someone can help.. I have a long story that goes along, that has a lot of insight, so please bear w/ me.. All started 2-3 years ago... I had to get the rear diff rebuilt since the whirring was terrible...

    Brake Problem

    This is sort of OT, but how much is the core charge for you in your area?? Where I'm at, the actual Core charge is nearly twice the price of the rear calipers.. And those are ReMans... JT

    Brake questions

    Are you sure you put the calipers on the right sides?? The Bleed screw should be on the top.. If they're not on the right sides, air will get trapped in there... Otherwise, you definitely need to be re-bled.. Oh, and pump the brakes w/ the Master cylinder cover off to re-seat the pads...

    What happens w/ the TPS??

    Hey svttech, Great info, however as I was reading through, I had 2 questions... - Throttle Angle Rate: What exactly does this mean?? Is it the rate at which you depress the accelerator?? - Maybe I'm confusing the terms, but I was under the impression, that when cruising, the car goes...

    valve tap?

    I've never personally had a clogged galley.. Doesn't sound like that is your problem though... It just sounds inherent in these engines.. It just takes forever for the engine to warm up... Piston slap sounds more like your issue.. I'd say just let the car get up to operating temp...

    You know what grinds my gears ? ( 8.27.06 )

    True, but most kids generally fit in the overhead container.. :) Those that don't, can be checked prior to flight, and claimed once the aircraft is on the ground... JT

    Annoyance Tech

    I don't remember if it does, but doesn't low fluid in the Master Cylinder also trigger a "BRAKE," light?? JT

    Need opinions ASAP PLEASE!!!

    IIRC, increasing the size of the swaybar is "exponential," on it's reaction. I'd personally try using solid links first, and if that's not enough, then go w/ the bigger swaybar and soft end links... As common sense tells me, incremental increases let you find the sweetspot quicker than...

    SERIOUS HELP NEEDED

    Okay.. Would you classify it as a "chatter," or a high-pitched rattle?? Maybe the pump was installed wrong?? Are you able to get underneath the car at all?? Can you tell if all of the plugs/harnesses are in good shape?? What about the Torque Converter Inspection plate?? I wonder if...

    You know what grinds my gears ? ( 8.27.06 )

    What about wearing some headphones like listening to an iPod, CD player, personal DVD player/Computer?? Or a beer?? JT

    What happens w/ the TPS??

    I figured as much.. :) I was looking for more info, like when it fails, what are some of the symptoms?? What other ancillary components does it directly affect (i.e. Trans Kick Down Sensor, MAF Correlation, etc..) I'm just trying to get a better understanding of the 4.6/5.4 and there...

    What happens w/ the TPS??

    I'm not sure if this should go into the "Talk," or "Tech," section so I threw it in here, since it has some technical aspects... So I've been reading a lot of issues regarding people w/ Tranny malfunctions, and knowing a little bit of electronics from older cars, not necessarily Fords...

    SERIOUS HELP NEEDED

    I was reading through, and was wondering, what kind of buzzing sound was this?? Did it escalate when the throttle was pressed?? Not to sound like a d-ck, but why do KNOW that it's the TC?? If you want legal advice, PM me, I can throw some your way regarding the Warranty work.. JT

    valve tap?

    I wonder if you've got a clogged oil galley somewhere before the head?? Either that, or your oil pump may not be up to the task... JT
