    "New" rear quarter glass for the coupe

    I've seen glass on craigs for like $20 a piece just too far for me to just run and pick up. But yeah that would be an awesome money maker because not so many people would want to get that involved.

    FOXBODY GRILLE DELETE PICS

    HAHA here we go, I dont know if its just me but cowl induction hoods arent called taller hoods JUST for clearance. They allow more air circulation under the hood. I honestly think a cowl hood should have came stock on these cars just because they look weird without one. I agree this hood is...

    should you be able to measure resistance on 12v ignition cd player?

    My question is I'm trying to troubleshoot my sony xplode head unit and should I be able to measure resistance on the 12v ignition to the ground? I get 13 something v when I do constant to ground but nothing when I do 12v ignition to ground. The reason I ask this is because the cd player wont...

    Help on Using a GT40 Explorer intake.

    I doesnt matter if its in the pressurized part of your intake, if you think about it before the supercharger your intake has negative pressure now there is positive so that has no bearing on that sensor. All it does is sense the temperature of the air coming in. You will be fine putting it on...

    Idling and Starting Problems

    Yeah I agree. I've only been in for a year and a half, I work aerospace propulsion. And we use troubleshooting trees similar to what you have devised that way you dont replace something unless its necessary.

    Idling and Starting Problems

    haha I know but its too hard to read all that stuff..... I have to read technical orders all day long so when I work on my car I do exactly opposite of what I do on jets, I dont read anything and I have no tool accountability whatsoever. Atleast with my car if I loose a screw or a tool its not...

    Sweating Headlights?????

    the sweating is from moisture getting in and condensation is building up when it warms up, first off you need to get the inside dry whether you use compressed air of whatever and then I would use some clear silicone sealant and go around where the lense seals to the housing, also check your...

    Idling and Starting Problems

    I dont know if this will help either of you but today I set my base idle and it solved my problem for the most part. It idles around 750-800 rpm now but no more bouncing idle or having to give it gas to crank it. but it has the dreaded BBK TB whistle now at idle. I reset the computer by...

    Idling and Starting Problems

    Mine does the same thing, when I start it cold it idles a little bit higher and idles fine, but when its warm I can start it and it dies imediatly unless I rev it and when it does idle in park of neutral its a up and down idle, and I can hear the IAC valve opening and it letting air in to idle...

    My 88 gt

    I wouldnt mind the red but the previous owner painted most of the stuff black already and alot of the interior is missing so I figure if I'm going to replace alot of it anyways I might as well do black and get a nice set of leather seats. I want this car to have a new car feel on the inside...

    Is the coupe/convo saleen wing the same as gt/hatch?

    Yeah honestly I've thought about the cobra wing, and may end up doing it later on, but the gt wing is growing on me.

    My 88 gt

    Here is what I noticed in the bottom of the drain pain of the transmission fluid. About 2 weeks ago I changed the filter and cycled out about 8 quarts of tranny fluid, yesterday I pulled the pan to change out the gasket because of a crappy leaky rubber one and this is what came out, my magnet...

    My 88 gt

    Well I've been browsing this forum for a while now and I'm so jealous of everyone and their bad ass foxes, so I figure I can get my own thread going here. This is my 88 gt, its got an AOD and the factory 3.27 gears, Mac cold air intake and explorer upper and lower with BBK 70mm TB and egr...

    hesitation when hitting gas while driving

    UPDATE: I purchased a digital multimeter set the TPS and did the KOEO and I think I got code 11, its hard to tell because I dont know which voltage reading setting is easiest to use for that. But I was able to fix my problem, it was quite simple, I noticed the vacuum line going to the MAP was...

    Is the coupe/convo saleen wing the same as gt/hatch?

    Thats what I figured when I set it on there. I'm gonna try to sell it, I've got $50 in it but who knows if I'll get that back out of it. I like my GT wing anyways it just looks like its supposed to be there.

    Is the coupe/convo saleen wing the same as gt/hatch?

    I bought a saleen wing a couple months back just because it was cheap, the guy I bought it from had a convertible. I didnt think much of it until I got home and realized it was missing a 3rd brakelight. So my question is, will this wing even fit on a hatch? I took my gt wing off to clean the...
