    Did my clutch cable snap?

    I hopped in my car today ready to leave campus. As I pressed my clutch pedal down to start the car I hear somewhat of a pop and the clutch pedal loses all resistance. It takes a mere breeze to push the pedal to the floor now and the clutch obviously isn't engaging. The pedal still returns to...

    Electrical quetsions regarding locks/windows.

    Nothing was wrong with the switch itself, I pulled the window motor and connected it to the harness and it was working. So (even though I have a few extra motors) I just put it back in and everything worked fine. I'm assuming that the gears were just stuck on something; its all i can think of.

    Dad's 01 v6 won't start. Just clicking at me!

    I have a digital and an analog multimeter, both are cheap and both only have the two ports on them :-\.

    Dad's 01 v6 won't start. Just clicking at me!

    Well I just tried starting it up again and got nothing. I multimetered the terminals while the car is off and its reading about 11 volts +/- .5 volts.

    Electrical quetsions regarding locks/windows.

    Welp, The other day, a passenger informed me that my door lock switch and window up/down switch were both not functioning on the passenger door. I checked the driver side switches and the door lock switch worked fine but the passenger window switch didn't work on my side either. I tour the...

    Dad's 01 v6 won't start. Just clicking at me!

    14 volts while running at idle, 12 volts while off. And now that the battery was jumped it seems to be starting well. What the fart could have been wrong?

    Dad's 01 v6 won't start. Just clicking at me!

    Alrighty tighty. I jumped the car and it started up--its running right now. I do have a multi-meter so lets test this sheet. Should i put both leads on the negative in order to test voltage? At what states should i test it? Running? While being started? Etc... Thanks guys!

    Dad's 01 v6 won't start. Just clicking at me!

    Ok, well i popped off the terminal connections and cleaned them out. The positive one was the only dirty of the two. I ran my eyes down each cable and they seem to all look to be in good shape other than the fray near the negative terminal. All of the grounds seem firmly connected and are...

    Dad's 01 v6 won't start. Just clicking at me!

    Hey, errbody. My dad informed me today that his mustang won't start. I went and gave it a crank and all I heard was a clicking noise. Also, when you turn the key to the "run" position, the radio doesn't turn on. Here's the thing, the battery is new and so is the alternator. I'm assuming...

    Challenger r/t redlines at 5800 rpms...

    ...or something like that. I was told that if you red-line a challenger, the engine drops down to 3500 rpms. Is this true? Why the heck would it do that? Annnybody know? Seems like it would only do that in a manual maybe, idk, the challenger in question is an automatic sooo, yeah idk...

    Me thinks my fuel pump is going out!

    Also, if my fuel pressure gauge that i have hooked up can take up to 100psi, would there be any danger in driving around with it still attached to the schrader valve?

    Me thinks my fuel pump is going out!

    Well guys, Its been a week now and the car hasn't died. It did, however, almost die while I was trying to dart across a traffic thriving intersection (scared me *****less, lol). The car hadn't quite warmed up yet but it wasn't a cold day or anything. So I checked fuel pressure again, let the...

    OBD I codes

    Cleaned the MAF sensor, eh? Sounds like a plan. I already reset the computer and none have come back so far except for the 565. The canister purge circuit failure has been a repeating error. Still trying to figure out what thats about :-\

    Me thinks my fuel pump is going out!

    The idle pressure is a little low, eh? I'll check it now and again to see if it drops any lower. Does the weather/temperature outside effect fuel pressure? If it does drop any lower, would fuel pump be the culprit? Or should i still check a few other things first? Thanks, Hissin!

    Me thinks my fuel pump is going out!

    Thanks again, Chythar! Here's my results: At idle - 31 psi At idle with vacuum hose disconnected from regulator - 42 psi You guys seem to agree that with the vacuum disconnected, I should be reading around 40 psi, is 42 too high or do these numbers look healthy? Thanks!

    Me thinks my fuel pump is going out!

    Ok, i hooked up the pressure gauge and its reading 31 psi while in idle. The next step is to detach the vacuum hose from the regulator but I'm not quite sure which hose that is :p. I don't want to pull something out while the engine is running that shouldn't be pulled out, lol. So just to...
