    re-wiring. 3 wires I question

    1. What is the "third brake"? Is it for a third brake light if you have one or something else? 2. Why is the dome light routed with the wires to the back of the car? Is the dome light the same as the courtsey light under the dash. Is that where is should go? 3. Electric fuel pump. Do I...

    Quick left signal wiring

    OK, I swear I have a college degree in software engineering and these are simple dumb questions but I have to ask anyway. This seems to be the universal signal for ground and so I am led to believe the top picture is correct So the question is... Anywhere I have a ground wire, can I...

    Quick left signal wiring

    Which image is accurate the top one or the bottom one? I currently have wired like the top but I got to thinking and I wasn't sure and the diagram does not really answer this question. Thanks

    What am I missing? (Wiring question)

    Logically, something isn't right. I bought a wiring harness and for example, there will be one wire labeled "horn" however, the horn has 2 wires coming from it in order to complete the circuit. Same w/ the tail ligkts. I see a tail light with 2 wires coming from it, the pos and neg however...

    I need the wiring guy's link to his painless installation

    Thanks! I see he put his fusebox in the trunk. I am not sure I will be able to do that. I think I am going to have to be really creative here. Anyone else re-wire there car and run into any issues w/ the fuse box being too big?

    I need the wiring guy's link to his painless installation

    Anyone know the link to the guy's site on here that shows all the wiring he did to his stang? I have just removed all my old wiring and I am tryinh to figure how to mount the fusebox. It is 3 times the sixe of the original and I can;t figure it out.

    Wiring Question

    I will order a couple of those. I suspect I am going to just have to cut all the wires to the cluster and splice them into the new wiring harness. I am surprised no one sells a cluster/guage/warning light harness that is a single unit and can be spliced into a new wiring harness. Oh well.

    Wiring Question

    I got the wiring harness from EZ wiring. There is a set of wires that goes to the instrument cluster. The wires just end. There are no connectors or bulbs on them. My cluster has the connecters and bulbs but they are old and nasty. So I am looking for the little unit on the end of the wire...

    runs choppy when in reverse.

    Advice I took it to Eagle Transmission. They said they would look at it for no charge. After a couple days the guy says "Yup, it is the transmission but it seems to be an internal issue" Duh. He wants to charge me 280.00 to open it up and look at it but that will go toward the repair cost...

    runs choppy when in reverse.

    My assumption is that if this were the case, I would have the issue even when in neutral.. It is only happening when in reverse. sounds like something is catching w/ every revolution. very jerky. D 1 2 and 3 are fine though. I may have to take it in to a shop and have someone else drive it.

    runs choppy when in reverse.

    I checked the motor mounts, and they look fine. Any other ideas. It appears to somehow be related to being in reverse. Wether I give it gas or not, it has this effect. I can idle backwards and it feels like something is catching every couple of feet.

    runs choppy when in reverse.

    Saturday, I put the car up on ramps on both left wheels only just to look at the parking brake linkage. I didn't touch a thing but it was up on the ramps for about 6 hours. I took it off the ramps. Now, when I put it in reverse, it runs choppy. like rolls a foot then jerks, rolls a foot...

    Brake Experts, I need assistance (65 coupe)

    I have an FMX transmission in my 65 coupe. I notice that in all of the parking brake diagrams, they show the equalizer lever mounting to the crossmember via an attached bracket. I don't seem to have any place to put the lever. Is the brake setup different w/ the FMX? How do I install it?

    Edelbrock Carb Question

    I have a carbarator similar to the attached photo. My ford manuel does not specifically address this carb so I thought I'd ask the experts.... How does the black knob on the left work? I am thinking at this point it makes the car run rich / lean What do the two screws under the edelbrock...
