    found bat drain source, need wiring help

    Let me know how it works out. THe only reason I suspect an alarm is that, awhile back, I had a windstar at work with the same problem, same draw too. The dealership I work at very rearely sees mustangs with serious problems, such as batt. drains. Although, we have had 2 newer (s197) stangs with...

    Mustangs: an unofficial brotherhood?

    Haha, funny this is brought up.... Awhile back I was driving my brother in laws 03 vette, and everyime another vette passed me, new or old, POS, or badass, they waved. Well, i'm not a corvette owner, so I had no idea, I figured it was a vette thing, turned out it was. ON THE OTHER HAND...

    found bat drain source, need wiring help

    The GEM is everything basically. I should say, almost everything runs through the GEM. By pulling the fuse for the GEM, you really havn't narrowed anything down. Do you have an aftermarket alarm on the car? If so, you need to pull the relays, the fuses, the connectors first before you start...

    Noise on start up *video*

    I'm a mechanic at a ford dealer, so everytime I change my oil in my 04 GT it gets a motorcraft FL820 filter and I use the new motorcraft fully synthetic 5w-20. I've never used anything else except motorcraft parts, and I STILL have the same knocking noise when I first start it up in the morning...

    poll on MILs

    Im buying an x pipe for my 04 mustang. There are so many writeups good and bad about homemade MIL elims and plug n play ones, and after doing searches and reading for hours the same posts, the same arguments, I have no clear suggestion as to which to use. So I decided to post a poll BASED ON...

    Squaky clutch

    I also had a noise in my trans. It ended up being the throwout bearing. I replaced the pilot bearing (big mistake without the proper tools) while I was in there also. The dealer should have replaced the T/O bearing with the clutch, common practice. If the fingers where broken, I would think you...

    How To: Change Your Cluster to Blue L.E.D.s/Incandescent bulbs for $8

    I put mine in and had the same problem as blackie lawless but all of my LEDs where in properly, it was just VERY dim. The quality of the picture is crappy, but I assure you, its THAT dim. Also, did anyone have trouble fitting the tri LEDs through the holes in the back of the cluster?

    Trade my 02 GT for an 01 Cobra?

    I wouldn't count on the price going down too much. First off, people think the shelby's are gonna drop, its not gonna happen for awhile considering the demand of them now. The 2 that the dealership I work at sold before they even arrived at the dealer. I personally couldn't even get a deal on a...

    Trade my 02 GT for an 01 Cobra?

    If you ask me, I'd spend the 6K on a KB blower, and take a cobra for a walk.

    How many of you have Bassani's and are satisfied?

    I have the SS bassani catback and I love it. On the highway in 5th, its almost factory quiet. When you rip on it, it sounds awesome. When I first ripped on it, I thought to myself "thats it"? But, I had a friend rip on it while I listened from the outside, and I gotta say....holy dookie batman...

    I NEED TIRES

    I just ordered BF goodrich KDWs from tire rack today for my 04 gt. I'd say 9 outta 10 people praise the KDWs. I never hear any bad about them, and they are $50 cheaper than the crappy goodyears.

    2nd Gear burnout

    Cannot be seen from me. Don't worry, I'd laugh at myself too. The other day I attempted my first 2nd gear burnout in my 04 GT, only resulted in shutdown, litterally, the car stalled. I dumped the clutch from 5000 Rs and the car just bogged down and stalled (traction control was off). Car...

    Anti-Theft HELP!

    Sounds like something the honda guy screwed up. Anti theft cannot be reset. Anti theft consists of a pill like sensor in the PATS key, which sends a signal to a receiver on the ignition cyl which allows the car to start. If it was a PATS (anti theft) concern, the theft light would blink, and the...

    How To: Change Your Cluster to Blue L.E.D.s/Incandescent bulbs for $8

    I just put my blue tri LEDs in yesterday and I wasn't satisfied with them at all. They weren't very bright, and everything still had a green tint. I think i'm the only one giving the tri LEDs a thumbs down. I'll try em again when its dark out, if its any good i'll post pictures.
