    Rolled 89 5.0 wont start?

    The fuel safety switch is right near the rubber plug in the trunk but it usually can't be reached through the plug. It's about five screws to remove the rear trim panel. Also if the car sat on the roof for any period of time oil might have leaked past the rings and fowled the plugs.

    Odd code read?

    I pulled Key On Engine Off codes and got: 31 22 53 54 35 67 51 Any ideas? When I try an engine on test my car just sputters and almost floods out. I don't even have time to check the reader. My setup is a 92 computer and harness on a 1988 gt.

    i need a nice functional hood

    I have a cervinis ram air hood on my 88. It was on the car when I bought it and it looks good but right now isn't functional. I think it's about 120$ for the ram air insert and k&n filter. The way I see it is that the ram air feature is just another way for the motor to get the air it needs...

    engine off codes

    My car runs fine, it runs a little rich and a little jerky sometimes which is why i bought the code reader. I used to have one but it broke. I haven't tried reseting it.

    SVO ebrake

    I have a 86 SVO rear disk brake setup on my stang but since I installed it I've never had an emergancy brake. I was told that you need an ebrake to reset the ratcheting mechanism in rear brake calipers and that it needs to be pulled at least once a day. Does anyone know if this is true? If it...

    jerking at low RPMS...

    First lets not start throwing around the term "internet mechanics." I can't speak for anyone else but personally I don't give advice unless I've fixed a similiar problem. And by the way that hose that you repaired connects to a main vaccum port underneath the upper intake, its used on the...

    The Question... Keep C4, go to AOD or T5?

    Yeah I would recommend that over anything. I'm getting mine this summer, but if you want to stay in budget then for a manual use a t5 and for an auto use a c4.

    T5 or stick with the C4. I would only use an AOD as a boat anchor.
