    Loud Exhaust

    I like my exhaust, it sounds good and is definetly loud enough for me. My 03 with this same setup sounded alright but it crackled way too much on decel, yet my 95 doesn't have that issue at all, wonder why.

    Gas gauge doesn't work.

    My gas gauge has been acting up for a while now, it will read accurately when i first start the car up, but when i start driving it gradually drops down to empty and will stay there. Sometimes when I get on it hard the needle will move back up to where it should be but that doesn't last long...

    Oil consumption?

    It will still smoke on hard acceleration, thats why I thought it was rings at first.But i figured if I did have bad rings I would also have low compression on at least one cylinder, but 130 isn't exactly low. I might just find a low mileage explorer motor and throw it in, I hate doing valve seals.

    Oil consumption?

    So my car seems to use alot of oil, like a quart every 3 or 400 miles. I checked the compression, 125-130 on all eight, which doesnt seem bad. My number two plug gets fouled quite easily, was soaked with oil last time I checked it, all the other ones looked perfect. If I get on it hard, it...

    Radio/Electronics Specialists Needed

    I seem to have this same problem as well, only when the car is running. I haven't really looked into it much, my car has an aftermarket radio in it and the wiring back there looks to be an absolute nightmare. Hopefully I'll get it straightened out soon, it gets annoying :notnice:

    Car leans to one side?

    I've noticed lately that my car seems to sit lower on one side than the other. I can only notice it in the rear. I measured from the ground to the wheel lip and sure enough the right rear sits about 3/4 of an inch lower than the other side. Anyone know what could cause this? Only suspension mods...

    What should I expect at the track tomorrow?

    Well guys I never ended up going, had to work instead. Now I'm kinda glad I didn't, if this thing is gonna crank out a 15 second run I'd rather stay home LOL. I guess its safe to say my 03 would've spanked this car easy.

    If you could have any new car under 30k

    Well if it had to be brand new, I'd get an 09 GT.

    Possible race coming up.

    I havent been to the track yet, was supposed to go last weekend but something came up. I think he'll probably beat me, but I'll find out for sure soon enough.

    Possible race coming up.

    So a friend of mine just picked up an 89 Corvette recently, and of course he thinks it will spank my 95. I havent really said much back to him, mainly because I have no idea how those cars run. It's a stick and its bone stock, Tuned Port 350. How will I do? Thanks!

    What should I expect at the track tomorrow?

    Well seeing as the track will be closing in a few weeks I think I'll go and get a few runs in. I'm not sure what I can expect this thing to run, mods are in my sig. Also a few other things done to it are 3.27 gears, shift kit, and I kicked up the timing a bit. It's supposed to be about 60*...

    Reasonable price for 98 Cobra?

    Hey guys, I was browsing through some ads today and noticed a yellow 98 Cobra for sale, at a small dealer. It has 82k miles on it, and a few small mods ( black 18" Bullitt wheels, BBK intake, Flowmaster exhaust) They are asking $10,900, which sounds kinda high to me. The car looks really clean...

    What exhaust should i put on my 95 GT

    My 95 came with a Bassani catless x pipe and Flowmaster 40's, same setup I had on my 03. I like it alot, it's pretty loud and has a nice rumble at low rpm and sounds good higher up too. But for some reason I don't think it's quite as loud as my 4.6 was, for whatever reason?

    Smoke on decel?

    Another thing I've noticed with this car is that it has some blow by on decel, mostly higher rpm decel. I'm thinking it might be valve guides, hopefully not rings. It's definetly blue smoke, I've heard some people saying that a catless x pipe will make smoke pass through easier, but either way I...

    Rough idle and loss of power?

    I'm really wondering if this MAF from my Explorer is causing any problems. Although it fits perfectly, and looks the same as my old one, could it be calibrated differently for for a V6?

    Rough idle and loss of power?

    Hey guys, I recently bought a 95 Mustang, was a V6 and was converted to a 5.0 a few years ago. Anyway, when I first got it the car didnt seem to be running right, smelled very rich and the idle was pretty lopey, almost like it had a mild cam. The next day I broke down with the car, ended up...

    X pipe question.

    Hey guys, I took the X pipe off my car ( 5 spd) and my friend with his 03 GT auto wants to buy it. But before he does I was curious to know if this will work on his car being an auto. Thanks!

    More transmission problems

    Now I have a question for those of you who have already had this TSB performed. How long was the car in the shop for, and did it feel better afterward? Thanks!

    More transmission problems

    I haven't had the TSB done on my tranny. What does this service kit include?
