You could back flush and refill the antifreeze (add Redline water wetter too,) replace the thermostat, drain and refill the rear end fluid, drain and refill the trans fluid, remove and clean the mass air sensor with qd electrical contact cleaner, run Seafoam, lube...

    Pulley pics

    Crank: Water Pump: Forgive the water spots. No clue how I missed those. I have the stock alt pulley, but the Steeda kit pulley looks a little bigger. No biggie.

    1500 miles on oil/12 months. Time to change?

    I went around 8 months on Mobil 1 5w20 last year, and only put 1200 miles on the car. I had a oil analysis done on it, and the guys at Blackstone basically asked me why I changed it so early. That answer your question? :nice:

    Boost Leak? *pics*

    That looks more like condensation mixed with a dirty intake tube to me. I wouldn't think oil would make a splatter type design like that. Anyways, I agree that I would use RTV or perhaps teflon tape when you put the sensor back in to the pipe.

    2000 mustang unknown codes

    Too many mods to troubleshoot o2 sensor/maf problems. Gunna have to figure that out yourself since you know the setup, and we don't. Could be the tune, could be an exhaust leak, could be bad o2 sensors, a dirty maf, who the heck knows.

    HP vs. Hellion

    Actually, I believe with the Hellion kit, you are still required to use a tubular suspension, but it's optional as to whether or not you want to buy it from THEM, or buy it yourself. Anyways, I've heard several complaints from owners that the HP kits have oil drain back issues, causing loss...

    broken wheel studs common?

    Yeah it all depends on whether the person who puts the lugnuts on does it properly or not. Properly in my opinion meaning hand threading them to ensure they aren't crossthreaded, then using a torque wrench, not just impacting them on or using a breaker bar til they are sick tight.

    question about mass air sensors

    Why do you want a bigger maf? The stock maf can handle ~408rwhp before it pegs.

    9,000 miles on 1 oil change

    Back in the times when engines weren't expected to pass 100k or so, 3k/3mo was pretty much necessary for changes. This was also due to the fact that oils weren't nearly as good as they are today. In these times, even dino oils have great detergent packages, so 5k/6mo is fine. With a full...

    MAC H INSTALL - Few Quick Newb Questions...

    http://www.sgarlic.com/04stang/macpipe.html No pics of that install.. sorry. Anyway, 1) You have to put the rear's back in. Someday, you'll take the pipe off, for whatever reason, and if you don't have the rear o2's, you'll kick yourself for not just putting them back in. 2) You...

    Mounting Taurus fan

    Those radiator pull through zip ties, and make sure to use the foam pads they include, or fabricate some small aluminum brackets and bend them around to mount on the fan on one end, then the other end to where the rad bolts to the rad support.

    v2 vortech

    I don't get it, you're saying your friend has a 2002 with pullies and a hypertech. What does the Vortech have to do with this? You're putting it on HIS 2002, or YOUR '94? If it's for his 02, tell him to ditch the pullies, and the hypertech chip, and have it dyno tuned somewhere, or buy the...

    Battery, Red Eye, Told to disregard

    Mine randomly went red one day too, but with no indication of low battery charge, or anything. I drove it around 15 miles or so, parked it in my garage, then the next morning it was green again. Now there's no color at all.

    Fuel spillage

    My brand new minivan has been doing that since I bought it too. It's freaking annoying. I brought it in there, and they said there's nothing wrong, and they can't fix what isn't broken. Great response. Not that this helps you, but I feel your "pain."
