    Autolite 4100

    Right now I'd just settle for an engine that runs smooth once it is warmed up! The dang thing seems to act like it is flooding or starving or like the plugs are fouling whenever you try to hold the engine speed at a constant rpm. Then when you press the pedal down it jumps back to life again...

    Autolite 4100

    Well, I attempted the choke adjustment with the help of your docs JB66. Thanks! I also set the idle mixture screws to 1 3/4 turns out from fully seated as someone had mentioned in a previous post was the starting point. I won't know how the adjustments worked until later today. We had...

    Autolite 4100

    Ozsum2, you were right. I replaced the motor mount and got the carb level and it still runs rough. I'm wondering if maybe I need a new coil for how it runs when I'm out on the road. But the thing still requires constant monitoring and pedal pumping to keep it running once it starts so I am...

    Rear end traction control

    If I'm going to be able to see them, I don't think I'll even put them on then. I'd rather have it look cleaner than cheapen the look just for a little extra traction. Thanks Golf! P

    Rear end traction control

    Thought I heard someone talk about "slapper bars" or something like that. Supposed to control wheel hop and axle windup. I've looked at some devices like that but it seems like they all require welding to the frame. The guy that was telling me about them was saying they just bolt on with no...

    Motor Mounts on 65 289

    Got the motor mount in tonight. Piece of cake. Worked well to jack on the bolts holding the oil pan on. Thanks for the idea 302! The carb is almost perfectly level again - I can't wait to get it out on the road to see if that cures my running-rough condition... Will work on the limiter...

    Gotcha. Thanks for clearing that up. So the fact that my passenger side mount went out on me, would indicate that it was not due to engine torque.

    Exterior Changes..time for a change

    The front and rear (where the screws are supposed to go) are where the pop rivets are. Sorry...didn't mean to hijack your thread.

    Can we do an "All Mustangs Registry"?

    Could we do some kind of a Stangnet Classic Mustang Registry. It would be neat to be able to look at one spreadsheet or something to see where each car is from and other info. I know there are registries out there for certain types of mustangs but it would be fun to have one on this site...

    Exterior Changes..time for a change

    I've always liked the GT rocker stripes over the C stripes. Also no rocker trim (I'd like to get rid of mine but I'm afraid to look underneath - previous owner pop riveted them on... :rlaugh: )

    Thanks 302! Does the strap really bolt to the driver's side head? I thought it was the passenger side that wants to lift up?

    Motor Mounts on 65 289

    302 I have the perpendicular post mount. The nut unscrews straight down when I am under the car, as do the bolts that attach the mount to the engine. In fact, 2221 is the part number I ordered. I'm going to replace it with that same stock part, but I would really like the recipe for your...

    I think I have the separating kind. But on the one I am taking off, the rubber actually tore in the middle (it didn't separate the rubber from the steel). I might try a strap. Where did you mount the strap? What part of the engine and what part of the frame?

    Motor Mounts on 65 289

    Mine have the rubber and the post and I would say they are probably the cast mounts based on your description. I'm guessing the one I am replacing is an original as the rubber on it is pretty crusty. Got the bolts and nut off (as well as the one nut on the opposite side) and the engine...

    03SHKR - those are two AWESOME fastbacks!!! Is it kosher to ask what you have into them ($$$)?

    Motor Mounts on 65 289

    I heard from a neighbor that he puts a 2x4 under the bolts that hold the oilpan on and jack on the 2x4. I think I can get a bottle jack to lift right on one of the bolts that hold the oilpan on. I might put some wood in there just so I don't marr up the bolt. P

    EVERYBODY please post your pics...

    It sits up another inch and a half all the way around now thanks to new coils, leafs and 4 new shocks. Drives AND looks better now too!

    Motor Mounts on 65 289

    Thanks 302! I ended up getting the part from autozone with tax and shipping for about $10.35. Is that oil pan is strong enough to lift the engine up? It must be if you've done it before. Those things must be made of some thick sheet metal. Is it easiest to get at the nuts from the top...
