    Taking out/Putting in Spark Plugs

    I am looking for some tricks on giving my car a tune-up. I think I can handle getting out all the spark plugs except the back left plug (back left when you are facing inside the engine bay from the front of the car). So I was just wondering if you guys have any tips/tricks on how to get it out...

    Fuel Pump Noise?

    Thanks TheUser. Yah it only makes the sound when the car is turned on. Anybody else ever had this problem before, or are there any other possibilities? I don't want to replace something that isn't broken, like I did last week. I replaced my alternator when my problem was a bad ground :(

    Fuel Pump Noise?

    I think something might be wrong with my fuel pump. When I turn my ignition forward, before the car is started, the fuel pump comes on fine and dandy as usual. Car starts up no problem and everything. But here is my problem; while I'm driving my car I can hear what sounds like the fuel pump...

    Car Won't Start!

    Bought some new ends for my wires, and a new battery ground. Hooked them up, reattached the battery, and my girl started up first try! Thanks to everybody who helped. :nice:

    Car Won't Start!

    Thanks Hissin50. I just pulled the codes again, because I knew I probably didn't write them down correctly the first time. This is what I got: First Group: 21 24 21 24 Pause Second Group: 15 15 21 is "Cooling temperature sensor out of specified range or ECT out of range" 24 is...

    Car Won't Start!

    Okay so I pulled the codes (hopefully I did this right). The "hard code" I pulled, which is repeated twice at the beginning of the test, came back as 22 if I read it correctly. The book says this is "Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) or BARO sensor out of range". I of course can still not get...

    Car Won't Start!

    Thanks guys. I bought a code scanner tonight, so hopefully it will help me out. I'm hoping it's something as simple as bad + - wires, because they do look rusty. *cough* ghetto stang *cough* If I get some error codes then I'll come back and post them.

    Car Won't Start!

    I have a 1990 lx, all stock. I parked it for 5 months for winter. It started first try everytime every 2 weeks all winter long. When I took it out on the road the first day this spring, the battery died when I turned off my car. I boosted it, and it worked fine. Then the second day I drove it...

    do 351s wear out as fast as 347s?

    A 347 would be a 302 with a stroker kit on it. So a 347 is not built to be a 347 from the factory, it is built to be a 302. Once you strip that material away from the engine, it becomes less able to take abuse for long periods of time since there is less support. A 351 is built to be a 351...

    Vents not blowing (damnit)

    Okay I don't know if it was what you just said, but I went to go try it and turned my signal lights on... they worked..... then waited a second and prayed to the mustang gods before trying to turn the vents on..... and BOOYAH! They worked. So either it was what you said, or something else funny...

    Jacking up my 5.0

    Damnit! Almost had a pic! haha. Thanks, it makes sense what you're saying so I shouldn't have a problem finding that spot to jack my car up. I am just so paranoid when it comes to doing anything with my car because I love it so much and I have no experience whatsoever when it comes to working on...

    Vents not blowing (damnit)

    Okay so my car has been parked since the beginning of October now, outside unfortunately because somebody stold my tires and rims before I got a chance to put it in the garage. I live in Calgary, Alberta and we have pretty cold winters just so you know. I thought if I started my car up every...

    Jacking up my 5.0

    Thanks speedo, I appreciate the help, I shouldn't have any trouble finding that. Does anybody happen to have a photo for good measure? I also forgot to mention (whoops!), that I do have full length MM subframe connectors. I just didn't know if that mattered or not when jacking it up?

    Jacking up my 5.0

    My car is sitting on cylindrical blocks right now, courtesy of the people who ripped off my tires and rims :mad: . I am getting the new ones tomorrow, and was wondering where I should jack my car up. I figure I am going to use 2 jacks, one on either side under the driver door and under the...
