    Interior and Upholstery Need Speedometer Help

    I'm really leery to buy a used speedometer because given the age of them, more than likely they will have problems, then I just wasted all that money. But if a used one can be verified that it doesn't have any problems, then I would consider it. I have seen the digital instrument clusters on...

    Interior and Upholstery Need Speedometer Help

    So I received a price quote from Southern Electronics. They want $395 to clean/repair my speedometer (includes shipping costs). OUCH!!!! I'm going to do some shopping around and see if I can find a place that will clean it without screwing me over on the price.

    Interior and Upholstery Need Speedometer Help

    Thanks guys!!! This is exactly what I needed to know. So it sounds like I would be better off sending it to a shop rather than attempting to do this myself due to the calibration that is needed and the delicacy of this thing. I might just have to do that. But does anyone sell new ones or is my...

    Interior and Upholstery Need Speedometer Help

    Khanpa--If you don't mind me asking, what was the company you sent your speedometer to and how much did it cost to repair it? General Karthief--The intricacy of these speedometers is exactly why I'm asking for help before I tear it apart. I don't want to break something because I don't know how...

    Interior and Upholstery Need Speedometer Help

    The speedometer works, (so does the odometer) but it is slow to respond (going faster than the needle shows) and it also sticks (won't come back down to zero for quite a while, and it displays faster than what actually going (going 60 but displaying 140 or any other speed. When my speedometer...

    Interior and Upholstery Need Speedometer Help

    I have a 92 Mustang and I'm having issues with the speedometer not working properly. I've replaced the cable and that didn't fix the problem. After reading some other threads on the issue, it sounds like I need to clean the head (disc / cup) & magnets that make the needle move. I have the...

    Engine Rear main seal still dripping, been replaced twice!!

    You have a deal. But it might take a few weeks to get it done because I only get to work on stuff on Sundays.

    Engine Rear main seal still dripping, been replaced twice!!

    So I just ordered the Ford Racing rear main seal, crankshaft sleeve, & the loctite 518 (already have the thread sealer) so we'll see what happens. I'll probably go to home depot and get a 4" pvc cap like someone in this thread suggested and give that a shot. I appreciate everyone's advice. I...

    Engine Rear main seal still dripping, been replaced twice!!

    Evintho--So basically you're saying the rubber Ford Racing seal is better quality and would seal better than the teflon Fel Pro seal?

    Engine Rear main seal still dripping, been replaced twice!!

    Hey guys I just stumbled across this thread and I had a question about the rear main seal. I just replaced my clutch on my 92 GT and while I had it apart I replaced the rear main seal. I'm having the same problem as everyone else; my brand new seal is leaking. So after reading this thread I...

    Fuel STARTING & STUMBLING ISSUE

    So I got a chance to work on the Mustang today and I think I found the problem. The hose that goes from the upper intake manifold to the charcoal canister was super loose at the connections and seemed to be allowing air to be sucked in (vacuum leak). So I repaired that, fired it up and it...

    Fuel STARTING & STUMBLING ISSUE

    So does this sound more like a flooding issue rather than an electronic issue (fuel pump relay)? Is it possible I damaged one of the injector nozzles when I pressed on the new plastic cap? I'll pull the plugs and look for excess fuel, but besides that do you guys have any troubleshooting ideas?

    Fuel STARTING & STUMBLING ISSUE

    I need some help with my 1992 Mustang Gt 5.0L. I recently installed a new clutch, rebuilt the 5-speed, new headers & had the heads rebuilt. While the heads were off I put new o-rings & caps on the fuel injectors, installed a new timing chain, high volume oil pump, new rear main seal, plugs, cap...

    Starter, Solenoid, Clutch Safety Switch, OR??

    UPDATE.....So I went to remove the wires from the post on the starter solenoid so I could clean them and you'll never guess what happened. The freaking casing around the post broke off and the entire post came off the solenoid. So I reinstalled the old solenoid just to see if that was the...

    Starter, Solenoid, Clutch Safety Switch, OR??

    I'll try that too. Question.....the positive battery cable from the battery connects to the large post on the solenoid, which is where I jumped the small ignition terminal from. How would jumping it straight from the battery as opposed to the large post on the solenoid make any difference...

    Starter, Solenoid, Clutch Safety Switch, OR??

    I will try that (I assume you're talking about cleaning the terminals on the wires). I also still have my old solenoid, so I think I might try reinstalling it and see what happens. It might tell me if the new solenoid is bad or not.

    Starter, Solenoid, Clutch Safety Switch, OR??

    Ok guys, here's an update......I think I had two problems and I got one of them solved today. So here's everything I did today...... I tested the battery with my battery tester and it was fine. I then cleaned the ground to the block and the wire terminals (which was fine to begin with, but I...
