    Short belt smog bypass??

    Shouldn't be a problem, The smog pump pulley isnt in the way of the belt at all.

    Power draw?

    There's a little button inside the door that causes the light to go off when you close it. The reason your light is staying on is either because it's broken or it popped out. Take the bolt off the front of the switch (if it's there). Then take off the kick panel to get at the switch from the...

    suspension/chassis upgrades??

    Also, would it be the same thing to get bolt on conectors temporarily and then just weld them in later, or is there some difference?

    suspension/chassis upgrades??

    There are 3 things I'm considering upgrading on my car. 1.) Strut tower brace 2.) G load brace 3.) Subframe connectors Can anyone who has these mods comment on what kind of difference they make? Are they worth buying? The stock convertible frame seems to flex way too much, I'm just...

    drum brakes questions

    It's not that bad, just remember to keep the other side intact so you have a reference in case you can't put them back together.

    drum brakes questions

    so I should spread the shoes apart a little with the wheel and then they'll adjust right. I don't know how long it's been broken, but I never noticed it. Do I need that self adjuster cable for the other side? As far as price goes, I didn't replace the shoes or resurface the drums, so I don't...

    drum brakes questions

    yesterday I took off my drums to try and find out why my parking brake was binding. Turns out the passenger side had a broken wheel cylinder, so I fixed the wheel cylinder and I bled the brakes. I took it for a ride and the pedal was spongy and engaging kinda low, so I bled the brakes again. The...

    Can a computer go bad?

    Yes, they can definitely go bad. I had mine go out a year or two ago, not really sure why though -- no jumpstarting or anything. Like mentioned above, I would just go off the feedback of the seller.

    Stupid Window wont roll up. Need a temporary fix

    Sometimes you can get one last use out of a power window motor. Take the door panel off and get a large screwdriver and a hammer. Put the hammer on the motor and give it a few taps while an assistant pushes the switch. I've done this on a couple cars now it usually works -- just resist the...

    Cleaning intakes???

    Where did you get the filter you used between the PCV and intake, also did you mean between the PCV and the hose that connects to it? I think I'm gonna do like you said though, I really don't feel like pulling the lower intake cause then I'd have to go burrow a timing light.

    Cleaning intakes???

    I just pulled my upper intake so I could install new fuel injectors and I noticed that the upper and lower runners are covered in oily black carbon crud. What works best for removing this stuff, will it just come back on me anyway? Also, I'm doing this to pass an emissions test, so should I do...

    Valve covers leaking! Need some tips!

    The valve cover bolts are notorius for coming loose, especially on aftermarket covers. I've seen it on 2 of my buddies mustangs. Just snug them up good, if you apply too much torque to them, they will break really easily. After you tighten them down a few times they should stay put. I see...

    3G alt ? (yes, its me...again)

    Have you tried switching in some stock lights? If that doesn't help I'm gonna have to go with everyone else and say ditch the pullies. Sounds kinda weird though, I've got a 1000 watt amp w/no capacitor, black magic fan, and insanely bright fog lights. If I have all of these running it drops to...

    Unusual spark plug question

    Got one more question, off topic from this thread. Is there any way to check if the charcoal canister thing is working or not, I've heard this is supposed to kick unburned gas back in at off-idle modes, and if it's messed up it could make you run rich. Anyone?

    Unusual spark plug question

    I actually have two questions, the first is, I just replaced my spark plugs less than a week ago, I ended up switching the offroad pipe back on for a little while and I needed to loosen up my header bolts to do it, so I pulled a couple of spark plugs so I could get at the bolts. When I got them...
