    It's been a week. STILL have high idle, hanging idle.

    I installed a UPR Plenum and BBK TB. I had a VERY high idle after. I found that the culprit was the throttle plate was not closed fully. I closed it and it helped. I also did the copper cap mod and got a pretty steady idle. But it still idles at 1200 and I get code P0507. I can't find any...

    Addco 288 sway bar install

    Nevermind. I figured it out. :) Question though. It seems as though this can be installed in addition to the factory one. Is that adviseable? The front of the car seems to push in hard cornering, could installing this as a second rear bar eliminate that? I've read about some people using two...

    Well they could still use the same pump, but different pressure regulators.

    Thinking of going solid black on the stang.

    Blacked out taillights and headlights never look good, not even in the 90s when it was "cool". But I like the idea of black rims. I'm going that route with my car, but with a polished lip.

    Mach 1 Chin Spoiler

    It is incredibly easy to install. I did mine by myself in less than 10 minutes.

    BBK TB question.

    Cool, thanks. I also got a new plenum. Is it ok to bolt the two together prior to install or should I install them seperately. I really don't have a reason to bolt them together prior, just wondering.

    BBK TB question.

    I just received my BBK throttle body. Did anyone else notice that it does not seal 100%? I can see a little light around the edge of the throttle plate. Only a little. I'm new to Mustang throttle bodies, is this normal? I'm used to Mazdas where the throttle bodies seal so tightly that you can...

    Spring install using a spring compressor.

    Good to know. I may try again on Monday when the threat of rain is not looming over me. I did install my Mach1 lip though. The car looks much better.

    Spring install using a spring compressor.

    Nah they are fine, I figured it out. They have to be removed differently than the ones I'm used to. So I could probably go do the springs now but I'm already inside and everything is back together. I think laziness is going to win.

    Spring install using a spring compressor.

    I was defeated by the brake caliper. I could not brake it loose from the rotor. So I decided to just take the top part off since that's where the hose goes to anyway. The bolts to do that just spun and spun.

    Spring install using a spring compressor.

    Well, I have it just in case. I'm doing the install myself and won't have a buddy here to push down on the a-arm to help get the new spring in.

    Spring install using a spring compressor.

    So I'm going to attmept this in my apartment parking lot tomorrow. If I have a spring compressor can I do this by only lifting one corner of the car at a time? Any instructions, including short cuts, for a spring install when using spring compressors? I have a two piece kind of compressor...

    Reputable shop near York, PA for installing springs?

    I have some Eibach Pro-Kit springs to install. I can't do it at my apartment, I have the tools, but I'm not allowed to do such work in the parking lot here. Anyway, does anyone know a GOOD shop in the York, PA area that can do this job? All the places I've called so far don't want to install...

    How'd you learn to work on cars?

    When I was 16 I just decided to spend a day with my car learning how to do things to it. At first I had my friends do things to my car for me and I watched so I learned a little that way. But when I decided to go outside for almost a full day and take things apart, look at how things went...
