    car started running hot after......

    Do you have an electric fan or a stock fan/clutch setup. If you have the stock setup...when does the fan clutch kick in? Do you have a fan shroud installed? Do you have underdrive pulleys?

    Car stalls when A/C is on

    The AC puts a substantial load on the car. If the car is idling normally at 700 rpm thats perfect. The computer strategy actually calls for 675, so 700 is right there. You could try cleaning out your IAC valve. perhaps its gummed up with carbon buildup. Does this happen even when the A/C...

    3 73s installed... vibration at 120km/hr and up now

    i highly doubt its going to break. However, i wouldnt make a habit of doing it either. Vibrations have a funny way of making round things into ovals.

    Here are some pics of my 90 vert

    don't know why you think his oil pressure is low. even if the car was running...it would be idling. Not much oil pressure when the car's idling. Maybe 25-35 psi? Right in the middle of that amazingly accurate gauge he has there. I wouldnt be worried about that. car looks ok. Not a huge...

    installed new timing chain and i think im running lean

    if you were smelling serious "fumes" i assume you mean fuel. And if this were the case....I think you would be running rich. if you have a timing light this is how you check your timing. - Before you get started...get under the car with a white grease pencil or a thing of white out and...

    If it Sounds Too Good to be True, It's...

    I ran dumps for a long time...with a few different combos. Stock H-pipe, Catted H pipe, O/R H pipe. They all sounded like a truck. No tone. Loud as hell...and it screamed at WOT. But anywhere in the cruising rpm range it just sounded like an old truck. I put 2.5" tails on there and it...

    Rear gas tank and front tilt hood pics..

    I have a question about the hood. Because you are using the stock latch at the front, and you have moved the hinges to the front as well. WHAT is going to keep the rear of the hood down...and keep it from moving all over the place. That area of the hood is a huge low pressure area...i...

    Overheating on highway past 65mph!!

    I agree with everything the last two people have said. My car warms up fairly quickly now that we are into warmer weather. Oil temps might not be up to normal in 5 min...but the water temps sure are. Now...you definitely need to get a more accurate gauge on there. The stocker isn't worth a...

    Steering Rack and Tie Rod Replacement

    I suggest that you buy a chiltons/haynes manual for your car. They are available at most auto parts stores and are specific to your generation fox. For 15-20 bucks...they are an excellent resource for any project. As for the tie rod. It should be pretty straight forward. 1. Jack the car...

    ECM Bypassed

    How do you bypass an ECM with a "hose?" Also if the car is an 86, is it carb'd or EFI? I know if it were carbed there would be no ECM. whats going on here...none of this makes any sense? A picture would say 1000 words.

    What do you guys think about the Pontiac G8?

    Do you want something new? What about an older (2004) BMW 3 series. Like a 330xi. All wheel drive. nice straight 6 torque and power. And it's german...so quality is without question. An excellent all year DD...that you can take the clients out in.

    BIG PROBLEM AND I NEED HELP FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I agree...you need to do something about your air temps before going for anymore boost. You are already running 15 psi of non intercooled boost. Thats just silly. I bet the car runs like crap when its real hot. Also anymore boost or power is really going to push the limits of the block...

    chattering clutch

    My spec stage II clutch chattered for about 500 miles or so. Its perfectly normal. Just needs to break in. Take it easy on it during the break-in or the chattering may linger.

    My GT weighed 3150 with about a 1/4 tank of gas. No rear seats or rear sound deadener...but it does have a 4 point roll bar. All fogs and AC in place...
