I hit a bit of a snag while changing the oil: the oil filter is installed to approximately 788 ft lbs. I cannot get it off. I've fought with it...

I'm not familiar with the innards of this generation of Ford tape decks, but I think the blue thing in the corner is the switch for the tape. Give...

Good question on the mounts. Id say at a minimum you would need to loosen the opposing side so the engine can swing upwards I think it all sounds...

SasQuatch I had to deal with people who could not afford the repairs on their failed car and that sucked for the car owner who needed their car. I...

If you were still in Texas, I would say come and visit me, but it's quite a bit further to DFW now.

I think the impeller is a bit larger too. More water flow. run a tap in those extra holes if you don't have an iron pump now. Fair bet they...

I can look through my parts pile(pretty sure I just scrapped a good one) and if not, I’ll see if my new-to-me ‘89 still has it on there...if I can...

That’s basically what I did. I did the fuel pump upgrade and the throttle body modification long before I parked the car.

I actually was using the tape deck with a bluetooth tape adapter. I'd prefer to get this thing working if I can. I'll take another look at it over...

if you don't use the tape deck you can just unplug it. Its the wider connector. That will have the power and switching logic. The smaller one is...

Yeah. I’m not really sure what I’m looking at in here. Do y’all see the switch I’m looking for?

I was using the flush T as a restrictor until I put in the coolant filter. That's a good restrictor too.

You will only need the free "registered" version (or have they gone basic and pay only now?) to make the needed changes. Its the instrument cluster...

Not too bad at all. Gotta do the best you can with what you have available. I say it looks better than I expected.

The power went out Wednesday night and wasn't restored until early Thursday afternoon. So I had an opportunity yesterday morning to get a little work...

Ah, heard that. I didn't know if that was gonna be the same or if this was a different iteration of the car with the 255 installed. So, for the...

Yeah, most of the paid editing is related to PATS and programming that could be used to steal cars. Even if you need that, there is a way to get...

I linked this some time ago and am surprised it is still around. ...

I cut the Holley pump wires and spliced them onto the pump leads because the Holley pump had a plug on both ends; whereas the Panther pump wires has...

That's funny, as I was looking into a Hero3 a couple years ago and passed it up for reason(s) I can't remember. Crazy how many models are out now. ...

Just did my sons core. It blows 165 degrees out the floor vent. Plenty toasty! Were your blend and mode door ok in the hvac box?

no, it just makes the core less likely to pop if you wind the engine up a bunch.
