    Need help! Possible vacuum leak or bent valve.

    So I redid the cylinder balance test twice and came up with some confusing data. 1st Test: 9, 9, 6...1...6...1 2nd test: 8...1...8...1, 6...6, 8...6...8...6 What the hell does that mean? Saturday I am going to check the plugs, which were the first thing replaced before I started...

    Need help! Possible vacuum leak or bent valve.

    I cleaned up the PCV, filter and grommet, stuck it back in and started it up to see if that was causing the problems. It didn't help it. The symtoms are, on a cold start: it fires up ok, immediately wants to die but maintains running with a really low rpm, you'll hear a pop or two through the...

    Need help! Possible vacuum leak or bent valve.

    So, I was going over all the vacuum hoses and ran into the PCV... it was completely unplugged. The screen down in there is caked in oil and large chunks of dirt. So, I ordered a whole set up, but my question is: Would an unplugged PCV be the cause of my troubles?

    Need help! Possible vacuum leak or bent valve.

    Now that I think about it, when the car is running and I push the brake pedal, it almost goes to the floor and I get sporatic surges of pressure pushing back on the pedal. That leads me to lean towards a vacuum leak. Thoughts?

    Need help! Possible vacuum leak or bent valve.

    Hey guys, I think I have a vacuum leak somewhere or possibly a bent valve. If you read down, I sent a private message to jrichker and he told me to start a thread so he can post some diagrams and get other people's insite. Read below and you'll see what all I have done. There is a chance that...

    Lost 10hp and 20tq with TQ converter...

    The car feels stronger throughout the entire RPM band versus just up high with the stock converter. It was definitely a good buy, I'm not regreting anything, just seeing those numbers drop made me feel like crap. :(

    long tube question

    SLP and yes they do. I have SLP LT's going in on Monday, I think it's like $400 in labor.

    Lost 10hp and 20tq with TQ converter...

    Hey guys, So, I recently had a P.I. 3200 converter installed and we threw it on the dyno to get a base read before I install SLP LongTubes on Monday. Now, my numbers were already fairly low for my mods( in my opinion) but I was severely disappointed to see a loss of 10hp and 20 tq. With the...

    Starter Relay fuse blew...replaced and immediately blew again.

    Would a bad ground on the starter cause the fuse to blow?

    Starter Relay fuse blew...replaced and immediately blew again.

    Thanks. I couldn't get the relay tonight as to only the Ford Dealer selling them. :mad: So, tomorrow I'll pick up the relay and see if that fixes it. However, I tested the relay with the Multimeter and it showed the correct points closed and the correct points open. So, with the relay out of the...

    Starter Relay fuse blew...replaced and immediately blew again.

    Ok, so I go to leave work and my car won't even make a noise when I turn the key. Stereo and lights and everything work fine. I check the fuses and the Starter Relay Fuse (20amp) was blown. I get a ride to AutoZone and get another fuse. Put it in and it still won't start, pull the fuse and it's...

    Loss of advertised drop with H&R sport springs

    My Sports only gave me about a .8" drop. They never settled. People tell me, still to this day, that I should lower my car. I tell them I did. I had a slammed 5.0 and it got annoying. I don't like rubbing tires on my fenderwells, and scraping but I wish I had got the Super Sports. But I'm happy...

    I'm really hating my car right now...

    My O2 sensors were shot one time on my 5.0 and it was causing a part throttle hesitation and bucking. My brother has a '01 Bullitt and his car was doing the same thing you described, he had the Ford dealer check it out and one of his coils were bad. It fixed the problem.

    Bad O2 sensors will cause similar problems, but they will usually throw a code. Your MAF could be fried too.

    03/04 Cobra tank and pump

    I recieved mine about three weeks ago. The best price I found was little less than $900 shipped for the tank and twin pump. Randy Stinchcomb of Liberty Ford in MD has the best price. Give him a call and tell them that StangNet referred you to him. (410) 655-2000 ext. 5618

    Ignition Options? Searched long and hard...

    So, there's nothing really then... I guess stock will have to do until a quality name makes a quality product to replace stock components. I don't feel comfortable adding something to stock components to "Boost" the output or performance of it....especailly electrical components. You are...

    Tranny problem

    A lot of times having the fluid changed will fix the problem. Just take it into the shop and have them diagnose it.

    Ignition Options? Searched long and hard...

    Yeah, so far all I've heard about are the Grenatelli, and how they are crap. I was under the impression that nobody else made some. I'm sure the Motorcraft are fine for mild applications, but after I install everything on my car I was wondering about upgrading the coils, plugs and wires.
