My A/C compressor clutch started malfunctioning a few days ago. Been a real hot & humid summer in NJ this year and have used it a lot. Its a brand new replacement unit from Motorcraft, installed back in summer of 2014. Noticed a hissing sound that comes and goes with the A/C on, over the past...

The long and short of it is, that I am getting ready to install a new headlight assembly from LMR, on my passenger side. My oem headlight housing on that side was tore up, and I messed up trying to restore the headlight housing. Rookie detailing mistakes. But is there a way to make the new...

Troy (The Oil Beast) if you're around please chime in when you can and of course it goes without saying all are welcome to chime in with your insight on high mileage oils. Beast, based on my recollection I think it was back in 2012 - 2013 you mentioned your fondness for Valvoline Maxlife high...

OK, searched everywhere. How do we remove the 'headrest' portion from our seats in our 03-04 Cobras? Have inspected them up and down and besides yanking them with Dorian Yates force...can't for the life of me, get the headrest to release. I got a real cool pair of AmericanMuscle, Ford...

Ok so I have been experiencing a very loud, front end clunk. Almost sounds like it comes underneath the transmission area, towards the passenger side. Started happening at about 122k. Happens when I drop the hammer in 2nd and 3rd. Also happens if I downshift from high rpms from 3rd to 2nd...

Hello I am selling (4) used Metco idler pulleys from my 03 Cobra. I have ONE 90mm single bearing idler. The bearing should be replaced on this one. This is a 100mm DOUBLE BEARING idler with its dust cover. Both bearings are spinning freely and their integrity isn't compromised. This...

I have a used, older generation, MGW shifter for a T56 from my 03 Cobra. The only thing not included are the (4) bolts and washers to fasten the shifter base to the transmission. The dust boot from MGW is still in excellent condition, the MGW gasket is unused and the shifter functions...

Boy have times changed. I can't seem to find a 74.5" belt anywhere. I like my belt as tight as possible. I've been running my 2.76 upper (with stock crank pulley) along with (3) 90mm idlers and a (1) 100mm auxiliary idler. Anyone have any success squeezing a 74 3/8 belt on this combo...

I was wondering if we have any guys on here that use the FilterMag on their oil filters? If so, ever cut open one of those filters to see if it there is any added benefit at catching metals? My oil drain plug is magnetic and was wondering if this was just one of those overkill type products.

Just want to make you guys aware to eliminate the guess work. Ford doesn't appear to offer any longer, the oring that accompanies the coolant crossover tube burp plug, that is opened with a 1/4" drive. Not sure what the actual name is by Ford, but most of us are aware that we need to buy a new...

I was hoping you guys who have had this happen, could shed some light on what the issue was with your 'stuck in gear' episode. Today I just suddenly started having issues getting the car into gear. I run a Fiore firewall adjuster and quadrant. Pulled over and I think i screwed up bad...

I was curious if anyone also found an issue with the IAT1 sensor not sitting flush in the opening, that's provided on the JLT RAI elbow? If so are you guys just taping it to the elbow? For reference, this is the JLT RAI I'm referring to. The IAT1 sensor goes underneath the intake elbow...

I'm only going to give you the long and short of it, since I'm not the only person who has ever had a bad experience with this Oscar, slime ball character. Purchased a pair of 6k foglights back in Aug 2013 for my 03. In Nov of that year, started having issues with the driver side then...
