    Got robbed... Dang theives

    Motion detection flood lights are cool. I want motion flood lights that when they turn on, they broadcast the sound of a pump action shot gun! The worst part is you feel responsible for your friends super charger. That shows you are a stand-up guy! We need more folks like you. :flag:

    PA Alternator + PA directions = SMOKE!!!!

    I can't remember if my 3G instructions said to use the stock connector or not??? I did this 3 months ago and used their 4gauge cable and fuse. Plus, I read on the corral and stangnet that its a bad idea to use the stock wires. AND, I talked to the tech line before my purchase and they said...

    Failed Emissions at Idle. Any Ideas?

    I think you've hit on the problem. Your running 12* timing to compenste for a rich condition. In some states they check your base timing. Plus you mentioned, "Yea that is a good idea, but whatever caused my car to fail is probably causing performance problems so I would like to get whatever...

    Failed Emissions at Idle. Any Ideas?

    HC = run rich. Return your timing to 10 deg. BTDC. It is possible your 02 sensors are at fault, any codes from the EEC? Can your bring your Fuel pressure down a touch? (2 psi or so) Is your smog pump hooked up? Are you pushing air into the cats?

    Mustang Gurus I call apon you for advice! 87 5.0 modded to hell

    Well, we do have salt on the pacific coast. Where in Oregon? I belong to two Mustang clubs in Portland and might of bumped into the car (at the track or cruise-ins). Compression is a good indicator of motor integredity. If the head gaskets are gone then it makes it difficult to judge this.

    I had a code 34 two weeks ago. Pulled the EGR valve off, cleaned off the exhaust build-up on the valve and seat, replaced unit. No code 34 since. Finally, something I could fix without spending money!

    Most efficient way to mr clean ur engine compartment

    spray simple green onto everything (except distributor), let soak a few minutes. Then I use a water filled spray bottle to rinse the simple green away. I am too afraid that the pressure washer will cause damage like breaking those stupid hard plastic vacuum lines. Anything persistent may...

    Speedo gear missing...now what???

    I personally would not feel comfortable knowing a plastic gear and a metal retaining lip were floating around in my tranny. Everytime I drove the car it would be like waiting for the other shoe to drop.

    I think I have a serious problem!!!

    How about an exhaust rattle? Pull up aside a wall or another car, push the clutch in and step on the gas. THe wall will help broadcast the sound back to you. I had something like this and it was a loose exhaust hanger.
