    why do stangs need such big injectors?

    There's nothing you mentioned in your Jeep mods that would require more fuel than stock injectors can move. That's why you don't need bigger ones. As said above, you hear Mustang guys talking about upgrading because they are running superchargers or turbo's. The N/A guys don't usually need to...

    LED in autometer gauges

    Yup, I put green 194's in my Autometer gauges. They are MUCH brighter now, and they match the stock gauge color much better.

    Quick seafoam question...

    If you do it through a vac line, no you don't need to change the oil afterwards. This method just distributes it through the intake and cylinders.

    Tricks To Pass Emissions?

    Running a can of Seafoam an hour or so before the test can help too, I've heard.

    Tried to Seafoam my car...barely runs now...HELP

    Remove and clean your front o2 sensors, and clean the MAF. Then get those codes cleared, and I bet its fixed. That seafoam can contaminate your o2 sensors pretty quickly, regardless of what it says on the bottle. I've just recently fried an o2 sensor on my ZJ from doing the seafoam too fast.

    Need Help with Gauges

    A wideband doesn't measure fuel pressure. And before you say, "I know that." .. consider that just because a wideband tells you you're lean or rich, it doesn't tell you why. And without a fuel pressure gauge, you have no idea if it's fuel delivery related or not.. which in boosted...

    odometer question

    The best way is to run a carfax on it and see if the mileage is consistant and matches about what it shows now. Why do you ask btw?

    Engine Bone Dry - No Oil, Coolant

    Gotcha. I thought I read somewhere up there that you had 220k miles on the car. I saw "I just changed the oil at 110" .. so I'm thinking 110,000 miles since last oil change.. and you only ate 5 qts? :rlaugh: You could probably run some seafoam through, but you'd do more good running it...

    99-04 guys with u/d pulleys: Would you do it again?

    I have the Steeda pullies, and although I still only get 14mpg, I'd do it again. It was worth the 179 bucks just to get rid of the ugly ass brown harmonic balancer. I've read lots of complaints from people using piggy back style pullies about them breaking. I would never use these.

    What hidden **** have you found in your used Mustang

    My old 88 5.0 had a marijuana pipe under the drivers seat, and several crushed beer cans under the passenger seat.

    Engine Bone Dry - No Oil, Coolant

    Based on how you described the problem, my thoughts are as follows. Since you plainly admitted you haven't done a good job of maintaining this vehicle, I'm going to guess that regularly checking the coolant level isn't something you tend to do. So, in regards to your first problem, the...

    Differential lube... what weight?

    Use 75w140. Pay the extra few bucks and save potential headaches in the future.

    Adding a s/c

    I personally would prefer a twin screw or roots type blower if I decided to go the supercharged route. Not that I don't dig the Novi, Vortech, ProCharger, etc.. but I can't see constantly driving around on the street at 5k just to see all the boost I paid thousands of dollars for. That Kenne...

    Idle issue after plenum/tb install

    Give it a week and I bet it fixes itself. I asked the exact same question when I did my Accufab Plenum/TB.. and got that answer (give it a week) and sure enough, a few days later it was gone. I read somewhere else that driving with the A/C on helps it learn idle more quickly.. but I didn't...

    What are the symptoms of a bad tps?

    If your car stalled on the highway, and you were stranded, if the tow truck guy asked if you were out of gas, would you disregard his idea as invalid, and send him on his way, just because it's a simple thing to ask? Someone throwing out the idea of "how about changing the wheel from square to...
