    Is it still good?

    Got back into the tank today. Was much easier the second time :) Pulled out the pump and found the red cap was slightly loose, but no crud got into the pump. Pulled it off and inspected the pump. No metal shavings or such. Put it all back together and fired her up. Sounds good. So far...

    Is it still good?

    Hello, Long story short, I bought a new Walbro Fuel pump and installed it on my 93 LX. Me being an idiot and new to fuel pumps, I neglected to take off the red cap protecting the pump at the bottom. With it installed, I primed it like 25 times or so and attempted to start it numerous times...

    Fuel Line Easy question!

    On a 93 5.0 Mustang, which line is the return line on the lower intake and which on is the supply line? There is one on the passenger side and one on the driver side. Please respond using that designation. I cant tell which one is coming or going from the stock regulator. Thanks!

    Bellhousing leak?

    How much would something like that cost to have repaired? Does this involve transmission oil or engine oil? I have also noticed that when I rev up the engine, I can smell oil burning. When I look under the car, I can see smoke (from the oil burning) hitting the back of the exhaust right under...

    I have a 93 LX 5.0 with an automatic transmission. I just replaced the oil pan gasket and everything appears to be dry as a bone around the pan for the last few weeks. Here is my problem. Fluid, maybe redish or brownish color, is leaking from the bellhousing area. I pinpointed the leak...

    AOD downshift question...

    Thanks for the link. I believe this is the problem. I started last winter with a tear down of the upper half of the engine. Once it was all reassembled, I found that the little black tab on the bottom of the t/b was broken. I did not know where to buy one, so I fashioned a fix with some...

    AOD downshift question...

    When cruising in my 93 LX 5.0 (AOD), the car shifts slow and smooth. When I am at a stop and let off the brake (no gas) the car accelerates quickly. On a flat surface, it will shift into second after it gets up to the proper speed. When I am cruising and in third gear or second, it will...
