    Power Window Issues (searched for 2 days)

    My passenger window will sort-of go down and not go up. I have replaced the switches and the power window lift motor. I have 11.4 volts at the plug to motor, is that not enough or should it be more? This is in both directions up or down. The volts are the same either door closed or open. It's...

    1990 Msutang GT will not idle on its own and struggles to get even 25mph

    You need to get it tuned.. Just my opinion, but go get a moates Quarterhorse (Welcome to www.moates.net! : Moates.Net) and Clints BE/EA (EEC Analyzer) and tune that car. Also, hit the site EECTuning.org • Index page and you'll see what I mean. People will probably dis-agree with me, but...

    why is my car slower than my friend's escort

    Well nothing rude, but first off you have a convertible and second it's an automatic. That's not really the combination that will put you ahead to fast. My dad use to complain about his vette being slow, well it was convertible and an auto as well that thing use to get stomped on. The mustang...

    TWEECER VS. FMU??

    Your right people either use or tell people what they are comfortable with, without a doubt. It's funny that on the fox bodies that tuning isn't required, when on the newer mustangs tuning is required, they both run computers that control the engine. You have a tweecer, you spent the...

    TWEECER VS. FMU??

    If you have a Tweecer or tuning device and the engine is mechanically sound. Then tune the car with the device. IMHO an FMU and other things are ways around to get the engine running properly. With a Tweecer you don't need an FMU as you can tune the engine, same thing with MAF and injectors no...

    If you really want to understand the computer for the A9x or GUBx read this book.. Amazon.com: Ford Racing M1832Z1 Electronic Fuel Injection Book: Automotive It's give great information about the computer systems in our cars. Plus, that .PDF can be rather boring.

    replacing door pins

    When I did mine, I needed to use a dremel tool to cut the pin then used a hammer and hole punch to get the pin out. You really need to use a jack to support the end of the door to move the door around. Also, make sure the door hinges aren't bent as mine where it makes lining up the pins a wicked...

    MSD problems

    I think that MSD's have the best ignition boxes, but the 6AL seems to have issues. I have had a 6AL that ran great and another one fry ignitions left and right. So, I'm going to get another one for the stang, but that's because everything else in my car is MSD as well as I said above I think...

    turbo size question

    For a turbo setup I'm going with an HP Performance (http://www.turbochargedpower.com or http://www.hpperformance.com) kit, they make a few different kits. From everything that I read they seem to have the best recommendations from everyone, Hellion Systems also seems to be good as well. As for...

    I just use a wrench with another wrench hooked into it, plus the end of my jack (it's removable with a good size hole) and PB-Blast. That usually works..

    I think that totally you should be higher than that, I have the slips and trapped 13.6 at 105 with my bolt-ons frying the tires in first and second. So you should totally have something higher or I'm running around the same or more horse than you with just power adders, my soon to have turbo...

    Running rich and surging idle

    First I will ask is how do you know your running rich other than spitting fuel, if that's the case then your surging because it's running so rich, that will cause the surging. I first would either look into getting a tune for the car from a reputable dyno location or getting a tweecer to tune...

    Thoughts on electronic water pump over regular performance pump?

    I wouldn't put a second thought into getting another Meziere water pump. I would get it with out question for street use, they are rated for street use so why not use them for it. When this one goes and if it can't repaired then I'll be getting another one. It frees horsepower and keeps a...

    Thoughts on electronic water pump over regular performance pump?

    I have about 3 - 4k on it (total), but this year was spent mainly tuning the car and I went through to full tanks of 2 gas just idling in the driveway with rips up and down the street, then shut down for about 2 mins change the tune upload the new tune then start it back up again and idle in...
