    Engine swapped motor, having starting issues(wmburns?)

    Finished the spark plugs and doing the fuel pump, still having the issue but not as bad I think. Once running if I tap the gas it bogs a little a few time then the issue goes away.

    Engine swapped motor, having starting issues(wmburns?)

    After some search when you have the key on,engine off there should be 30psi at the rail. I pressed the schrader valve down and only got a quick squirt then it just barely trickles out. Assuming then this would indicate bad fuel pump since fuel regulator tested ok?

    Engine swapped motor, having starting issues(wmburns?)

    Engine swapped motor, having starting issues(wmburns?)

    So i recently just swapped my 96 gt motor out for an 04 with 59k. While waiting for parts i came across a 5-speed conversion with everything minus computer for $600 which i thought was a deal. Swapped out ecu's for a manual one. Fast forward swap goes ahead and it bolted into the car, it runs...

    harmonic balancer question(motor swap)

    Well I can say the 04 is in way better shape(200k vs 59k miles) and they are the same size only difference was the 04 had a bigger/thicker "plate" on the front of the pulley assuming can dampen more vibration cause of the extra weight maybe?

    harmonic balancer question(motor swap)

    Engine engine swap, need some info

    I've read that you can tap the coolant crossover since I have the metal one or remove a freeze plug in the side of the motor? What's up with the valley heater return line? I saw that it was a solid line instead of the rubber line on the mustang but they both go same place don't they? I haven't...
