    Ok im finally doing my gears. Lets make sure I have everything I need.

    And a speedometer gear made for the 3.73's, otherwise you'll think you're flying. And a twelve pack of beer to celebrate the torque difference between 2.73 and 3.73, LOLLOL.

    Amperage of the stock alternator

    Adam L, I never really thought about using wd40 as a solvent, but it makes sense. I was really just looking for an excuse to replace my ugly one too, LOL. It has never really sucked the battery dry, but every once in a while I can hear it is low through the stereo. Greg

    Amperage of the stock alternator

    So I am sure that if I moved up to a 150 or 200, it would only help my charging.

    Windows Media Player

    And make sure you don't have 100 other windows and programs running in the back ground. Don't try to run anything at the same time if you want it to work right.

    I know I'll probably catch flack, but it's easier to ask the question than to search through all these message boards. Greg

    I put my dog to sleep

    You did do what was best for him. Imagine being in your 90's, disoriented, with tumors...wouldn't you want a friend to put you down. I am getting weary about my rotty and he is just ten, but starting to get hip problems and cataracts. I know the time will come in the next couple of years, and...

    List Stock Problems You've had!

    Gee I feel fortunate. The only probs I had with the stock set up was the harmonic balancer, rear transmission seal leak and intake was making a backfire noise when it was cold. So I did what anyone would do, and replaced everything.... :)

    Opinions on E-10 Ethanol/Gasoline mix...

    I know it's safe for the car unless you are putting the car into storage. I'm more concerned with the HP loss. May have something to do with what I am seeing in my car.

    Opinions on E-10 Ethanol/Gasoline mix...

    All, I am being told that E-10 gasoline can make up to 5-8% horsepower difference to the low side. After looking throughout a bunch of different internet articles, of course, the oil companies claim it gives you a higher horsepower. A lot of boating articles say that it is 3-5% less...

    Brake Lights Sticking

    Try spraying a little WD-40 on the switch shaft and cycle it with your finger a few times, and if the switch is completely gone it isn't that hard to change out.

    OK guys, mechanically challenged here...

    I may have found out some of the mystery, Grady. I just talked to Ed who tuned my car. He's pretty well known throughout the Mustang Racing world on the East Coast and does a lot of tuning for people at the drag events. 1) PROBLEM: High Idle. He said that when he tried to tune the idle...

    What do you do for a living?

    I guess in general the military services are big Stang fans from the looks of it. Justin, I was stationed in San Diego twice in my career. Once for boot camp (that wasn't such an enjoyable experience, lol), and then I was stationed on the USS CONSTELLATION during the last war cruise. You...

    New Engine Bay pic...

    Well, everyone else goes with red, so I figured I'd be different with the blue. Haven't figured out how I want to do everything yet, but it sure looks better than it did a week ago.

    What do you do for a living?

    That was funny, Justin, NOT!!!! :) No, I am in Virginia Beach. Been to Charleston though. Loved it. Actually I think I have been to every Navy town in the US, except Kings Bay, GA. In my job now, I inspect all surface ships all over the place, so I see plenty of other towns. Kind of...

    If you have a PCV valve that is probably what it is.
