Had it not been for their mistake it's like this car would have ran 3 weeks ago.

I agree. Like I said, I see nothing wrong with anything you posted. If this guy can get you on the road for free though, that'd be great.

BTW, it's pouring fuel from the crossover tube, right? You did put the o rings on, right? Also, I read that someone else sealed it up by stacking 2 o rings per side.

I've tried every combo and one of the originals got pinched in half. It just makes little to no sense that it's pressed in between anyway.

I did email and that's how I got the answer. I'll try again.

Strype · Jun 8, 2009

Emailed.

I feel a bit better now. Nothing like ranting to make you feel better

If it isn't Bryan Rogers who responds to you, call BBK and ask for him.

They ask the length of the center tube so I sent them a couple of pictures of the tube being measured because its crooked and I can't really measure it.

That was 4 days ago

Call them and start nice, then progressively build up to raising hell..

Can you forward a copy of the receipt for the intake so we can get another tube out to you right away?

I bought it at a mustang show at Barber Motor Speedway in 2006 from a CJPony booth.

A reciept for a new press fit tube. Amazing. Absolutely amazing. Well back to vingar it is.

Did you tell them that?

Strype · Jun 12, 2009

yep awaiting response. I'm not expecting anything given the past couple of threads I've read regarding this very intake.

BBK said:
OK. Otherwise, we would need to charge for it . They really want to see the receipt.

Alright then. Don't plan on selling anymore of those bad boys for a while

*cracks knuckles*

Time to get to writing.

Strype · Jun 12, 2009

I'm gonna see if CJ Pony has a reciept. I mean that part is my fault, but they should stand behind their product.

I did in fact buy it brand new if anyone is concerned. Brand spanking new.

CJ Pony Parts- I ordered about $1800 worth of stuff from these guys, also where I got my intake from in person at the mustang show in B'ham, Alabama...

Saturday I recieved 1% of my stuff (a fuel pump) and a t-shirt and a membership and 2 decals...

Problem is that they charged me $35 for that t-shirt, membership, and decal

I've sent an email so hopefully this will clear up. I have yet to recieve a tracking number either... hopefully this will turn around

EDIT: Membership was done to take 5% off of the $1800 order

See- they're looking out for me

strtrcr50 · Jun 12, 2009

It's unbelievable that they would demand a receipt when they know they have had issues..

Strype · Jun 13, 2009

CJ Pony doesn't have one either. At least they looked for me. He said it was because it was a car show.

LaserSVT · Jun 13, 2009

I can kinda understand BBKs position..... put the gun down Strype... here let me explain.

Yes they know its an existing issue and they do cover it under warenty. But they need to make sure its not a part they already replaced. See when I worked for a computer chilling company we had a batch of crappy coolers that we replaced for free. We had a couple dicks that worked for us and would steal the bad systems and sell them to people for a super low price and tell the people they just return it to us and they will get the new updated one for free. We exchanged 6 or 7 of them (at $6800 each) before I noticed one I had brought in a few months earlier.

I know that dont help you out but in the past when I had BBK stuff and had issues they took care of me right away. Once was fuel rails and another time it was a defective (craked) intake pipe.

As for a suggestion on what you should do, stand by for a PM.

Strype · Jun 15, 2009

It's like our sergeant told us before one trip into the jungle...

Men!

Fifty of you are leaving on a mission. Twenty-five of you ain't coming back.

Strype · Jun 15, 2009

Hooold the phone Joe... They said Customer Service will be contacting me.

NotchAbove · Jun 15, 2009

Not trying to add fuel to your fire, but I can't believe that this is still going on. I read this thread a few weeks back.

Sorry to hear about all this. Receipt or not, they should be willing to take back a faulty BBK part. Maybe its time you provide them with a receipt. wink,wink.

Strype · Jun 15, 2009

Yea well it's looking a bit more positive I'm waiting to be contacted but I gotta tell you, I don't think the new tube that connects the fuel rails is gonna solve anything. It could be the spacers, the lower intake casting, the holes in the rails, the tube, etc...

I am very serious when I say that I'm lucky my car didn't get blown up with me in it. Had I not turned it off because I had no one to stand out and time the car... Boom!

Strype · Nov 9, 2009

Resolved...

Okay here's a rundown of all the problems I ran into...

A) Fuel pressure loss- The BBK SSI intake was to blame. The tube inbetween the fuel rails was leaking.
B) Vacuum Leak- We had accidentally pulled the PCV valve out.
C) Spark plugs- The GT40X heads take 3924 (I think) Autolites.
D) Valve train- The rockers must be shimmed exactly as shown here: http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/785764-cam-timing-question.html#post7909781
E) Timing- The black "reluctor" has to be pointed at 12:00. The rotor should be just behind it. The number 1 plug on the cap must be over the rotor or just after. That plug actually sits just over the black magnetic pickup (reluctor I think).
F) Fuel in the Oil- After many attempted starts the unburned fuel was just pooling inside the combustion chamber and you could tell from the plugs. Some were black and some were clean but they were all drenched. It was obviously washing out the cylinders.
