    Car stalls suddenly

    Does the car have a low idle and die or can you keep the rpms up when you turn and it cut out when you keep the rpm at lets say 1600.Try to see if it is just a low idle speed and the extra load turning puts on the engine is stalling it.Or even at a higher rpm it cuts right out.More information...

    Rear Axle Play??

    Make sure that your driveshaft is not hitting anything.I don't think you should have any play in your rear axle shaft.If you can move it with your arms imagine what the weight of your car and the g's when turn would do to the axle.I would think that is your problem and very dangerous.I broke a...

    How bad is this for Tranny>???

    I was always told that downshifting a auto is bad news.If you upshift it is not that bad cause the trany shifts firmer and does not have that slip for comfort sake that the factory calibrates them for.All aod and aode tranys need a trango shift improver kit.It corrects alot of problems with the...

    Is there a break-in period for a new rear end?

    Taken it easy for awhile makes sense.Maybe 200 mile but not much more.The gears need to mesh together and make there own true.I would take it easy for awhile.You don't have to watch the mileage just take it easy for awhile.When you 1st take it out for a ride get on the highway and go for a nice...

    PLEASE HELP ! injector / fuel problems ...

    The PIP in the distributor is what tells the module then the computer to pulse what injector at what time.It is under 15.00.It sucks to replace though.You have to take the distributor out and get the drive gear taken off to change it.That would have been my 1st guess other then fuel pump relay...

    Should I Re-Paint My Stang RED? Post pics of your Red Beautys :)

    I have a black stang and love it.You need a cali. car duster.With a black paint job you have to make sure you don't get a wax buildup on it.It will look like tons of swirl marks.You should wash the car down with kerosine once in awhile if you wax alot.It leaves a build up and kerosine strips the...

    Pull the vacuum line off the regulator and plug it.Its right behind the throttle body on the fuel rail.If you have the stock regulator there is no way to adjust it.You need a adjustable one.

    Car stalls suddenly

    It might have to do with the clutch.If the clutch is not engaging the whole way when you come to a almost stop to turn.The flywheel is still engaged with the trany and the low miles per hour is draging the engine down and stalling it.I would read up on how the clutch works and even how a...
