    Pertronix Woes, is it 1.5 or 3 ohm?

    Eh, another problem with the stang (not surprised). Ok I believe that a faulty pertronix flame coil is the culprit of my latest snafu. I came across a similar question from this site: MGB: Possible Pertronix Problems MY QUESTION is how can I identify whether or not I have a 1.5 or 3 ohm...

    Electic motorized supercharger

    No, Absolutely NO. This subject has been mentioned before. Just another snake oil scheme. http://forums.stangnet.com/720315-electric-superchargers.html

    Custom Throttle Linkage

    I haven't driven the car yet, but I did tap the throttle to make sure it works fine. I still need to find some kind of grommet or make something to keep the rod from grinding against the firewall. I just don't want to make any major modifications to the car like that because I want to restore...

    Custom Throttle Linkage

    I never thought I would see the day I would post a topic that wasn't a question... Anyways, just finished building and installing my throttle linkage. It was a pain in the butt to find the parts and almost as equal a pain to install (since everything I do takes longer than the average joe). I...

    Edelbrock vs Holley

    I had a carter 500 cfm, which is basically the same thing as Edelbrock and it was an OK carb. I recently switched to an Autolite 4100 because I heard nothing but good opinions about it (that and its pretty fuel efficient). I have also heard great things about holley, but never had any experiance...

    Autolite 4100 Venturi Problem

    I will post pictures and videos later when im back at my computer. I finally got around to bolting on the carb few days ago and today I started it up to set the idle screws. Dont worry I had the car running at 190* during this procedure. The problem is I noticed the front passenger side venturi...

    Flowmaster vs Magnaflow mufflers

    I dont know if this car is for a daily driver or a weekend warrior, but the guy wants a quieter exhaust and obviously magnaflow is the best choice since its quieter, but still sounds aggressive. The PO of my car installed flowmasters (dont know what model) and they are louder than sin and have...

    HELP: ticket for loud exhaust

    Since were all off topic, I think you guys need to calm down and not take shots at each other, acting like children. If you are driving more than 10 mph over the speed limit your asking to be pulled over, especially on the streets. If your car is under the 95 db then fight it or install a...

    Hard starting

    If the starter turns the engine at the same RPM during these hard starts, its probably the fuel boiling in the carb. Happens to me all the time if I let the car sit for 45-60 minutes when I have reached operating temps. If you think its other stuff just go over the basics to see what might be worn.

    Differential Chattering...

    Weird... I drove 50 miles today (20 were highway) and no noise... My only concern was that the crankshaft pulley is wobbling (maybe 1/8" ). It wobbled like this after driving from the highway, but after driving 30 miles in the city it wobbles a little more than 1/16". The alternator, PS, and...

    Wheel Cylinder troubles.

    Yep, only go to krapen, autocrap, and advanced crap for filters and chemicals (and maybe some other small parts). Made the mistake of buying wheel cylinders from kragen (I was desperate and had to get the job done quick), NEVER AGAIN. The quality is obviously not the same. Of all the mustang...

    Differential Chattering...

    My mistake. It is an auto tranny.I have isolated the noise (more of a chattering) to under the car, from tranny to the diff, but from what i remember its near the diff. I will test drive tomorrow (get on the highway) then start diagnosing what and where the problem is. I hear it mainly at low...

    Differential Chattering...

    I almost forgot, could it be the yoke? I have not checked the gasket or what condition it is in, an the mechanic didn't say anything. Work gasket for the yoke causing vibration thus the chattering???

    Differential Chattering...

    How often do you need to change the fluid in the diff and how hard is it? My problem might not be the diff, but just wondering (my Chilton manual doesnt show how). BTW thanks in advance for everyones help! The symptoms are that when after driving on the highway for about 30 min then when I get...

    Header Wrap (just let me explain)

    true. I am still in college, so I was planning on spending $50 for a small upgrade and make it look decent, then after college I would start restoring her.
