    T5-Z doesn't like to shift when hot

    First thing I'd do is change the fluid to synthetic.

    Is this trailer a good deal?

    too much trailer for a half ton truck. Other than that, it looks well built, and I'm sure it has brakes.

    Are MSD Pro Billet Distributors garbage?

    I had a "ready to run" MSD distributor in a '69 that crapped out in a similar fashion. Replaced it with a stock points style distributor and all is well. I need to send this one back to MSD.

    Need opinions on 84-1/2 20th anniversary stang

    I have one. I don't really care how clean it is, it's not worth that kind of money with those miles. $3500 would be much more realistic. Take a look on ebay and see how much these are selling for. It's much less than you would expect.

    Any one own a KwikLift? I'm thinking about buying one.

    My garage has a low ceiling, but I'd really like a lift. KwikLift drive on lifts, 2 & 4 post lifts, home, commercial, car, truck, forklift maintenance lifts

    Prius owner

    I think he called the wife off, because he knew he was going to post this video and didn't want her to do anything to embarrass herself.

    Prius owner

    If she'd lose some weight, her carbon footprint would be much smaller.

    speedometer runs fast when cold

    Very good info. Since I don't really want to change the speedo head, I'll just live with it.

    speedometer runs fast when cold

    No, 5-speed, and I'm not forgetting to upshift. ;) 55mph at 1400 rpms in 5th gear is correct. I've checked it with a GPS.

    speedometer runs fast when cold

    When cold, 1400 rpms = 60 - 65 mph When warm, 1400 rpms = 55 mph I can tell by the way the engine reacts that my tachometer is not off. I checked the odo against the mileage markers on the highway and it appears to be correct.

    speedometer runs fast when cold

    Why does my speedometer run about %15 fast first thing in the morning. The odometer seems to still be correct. After the car warms up, the speedometer goes back to normal.
