    clutch not disengaging

    Definately want an aftermarket quadrant/adjuster setup. I just installed the UPR triple hook/extreme fwa and I can actually get my car into reverse without going into other gears first, and my shifts aren't sticky anymore. That stock piece is junk.

    what the heck are these?

    Well that must be why my horn sounds so weeny...only one of them is hooked up! (no wires or anything going to the one on the pass. side) Wish I woulda known that before I put the pass. side fender back on...maybe later I'll look into that. Thanks guys

    what the heck are these?

    damn, that was quick :) if its the horn, why would there be 2? one for backup? :) you think both of the ones on the bottom (the sphere and the cyl.) are for smog?

    what the heck are these?

    Ok, I had my fenders off to do a little body work and found a few things I have no idea what they are...any ideas? These are all on the pass. side. The top one is also on the drivers side and has a wire going to it. Not really important, I just thought I'd ask for future reference....might...

    "mickey Mouse" power steering delete.

    seemed a little more responsive to me. But then again, the mind can fabricate many things :D The real difference was the fun to drive factor. The way the steering is without the power is just really enjoyable and is more responsive at higher speeds.

    "mickey Mouse" power steering delete.

    I've heard that the plastic is only there on the cars with the airbag? Idunno, but I nixed mine maybe 9 months ago and its been alright... The whole tilt mechanism got a little loose though so I could move the wheel up and down/side to side, but that just took tightening of a bolt. I didn't...

    help with clutch cable routing.

    ok well I got it. turns out I had it on the wrong side of the motor mount. I did find a little trick for installing it that might make it easier....first connect it to the quadrant, then put something under the pedal to keep it pushed up as far as possible and then when you connect it to the...

    help with clutch cable routing.

    well first off, I did a search and found that basically it in front of the motor mount and thru the K member and there should be a straight shot to the mount. Does it go thru a hole in the K or just in that area? right now I have it passing just beneath the steering shaft and I have a straight...

    Jealousy....

    I totally know what you mean...there's no way I am gonna be able to get an 05, short of winning one or getting a megabig raise...unless I could somehow stop paying rent for the next 5 years. its totally disappointing to see everybody saying they're preordering, etc

    Which Muffler ?

    I dig my Borlas (not the XR-1's, the XS turbos). they are pretty quiet at idle and have a nice roaring howl you could say at WOT. a nice blip on the throttle and its just some kind of animal roar that rules. I think I have a sound clip but its not great quality. let me see if I can dig it up...

    got rid of power steering...couple questions

    yeah it is nicer steering at speed, but in the lot its a major pain. any idea what years the mustang came with a manual rack? and are they the same for the 4 cyl, v6 and v8s? Probably gonna try to get one from the junk yard seeing as I don't want to pay autozone $115 plus a $50 core charge...

    got rid of power steering...couple questions

    Hey all. Well after listening to the advice of several people here a while ago, I finally got around to bypassing the power steering pump and draining the rack and plugging it up. now my question is - Is it really supposed to be this hard to steer now? I mean, I know its gonna be hard...

    Cleaning/testing O2's...

    hmm here's an idea! make sure they're both plugged in ALL THE WAY :) seems that the connector on the pass. side is a little finicky and it takes some effort to get it plugged in all the way. when I removed the O2 I kinda grabbed the connector and it just slid right out of the socket with no...

    Cleaning/testing O2's...

    by the way, the ones I tested resistance on were the two parallel to the flat side of the connector if anyone wants to check for me :)

    Cleaning/testing O2's...

    yeah the colors are in the same position on the connectors...the two blacks are in the same spot as the two whites. I cannot measure a resistance between any of the other wires. cjones, which wires am I testing for voltage with the car on?

    Cleaning/testing O2's...

    well upon further inspection with a multimeter I found something interesting. the bosch o2 has two white wires and one black. the denso has two black and one blue. the resistance between the two whites in the bosch is 4 ohms. the resistance between the two blacks on the denso is 16.5 ohms...

    Cleaning/testing O2's...

    Hey guys. With the high gas prices lately I've gotten fed up with low gas mileage and decided I needed to figure out why. I've suspected my O2's so I just pulled them out to check them. is there any way to clean them up a bit or would it not help at all? just your basic brown carbon...
