I'm in the process of changing some things in my car and I wondered if anyone might have any experience with deleting things like the ABS system, air bags, heater core...... I understand how to physically remove all of it, but I'm wondering what impact it might have on the computer, if any...

From Auburn Hills this morning. Some really nice cars. 65 Coronet Super Stock - 426 Max Wedge. I talked the guy into starting it. No pipes, just 6' tuned headers (pic above is the motor). AWESOME! Shook the whole garage. 10.17 OFF THE FACTORY FLOOR!!!! The fenders were...

Got a nice present this holiday. Finished a nice Xmas eve dinner with my family and headed back to our house. We got about 10 miles into the drive and something started rapping under the hood. I immediately pulled over, popped the hood and heard the most painful noise I've heard in some time...

Pacific Green, 102K on the clock. Basically stock with Ford 9mm wires, new coil packs, new brakes all around about 15K ago (including calipers all around, rotors all around and new brake lines up front. All parts OEM). Tires have 15K on them (Dunlop FM901, stock size). No mechanical issues...

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7116413514154143395&sourceid=searchfeed Absolutely fantastic show on some historic Ferraris. Alain de Cadenet (former racer) is one lucky bugger to get the keys to some fine collectables. Its over an hour long, but you can dowload it. You can fast...

Anyone know the part number for the whole assembly? The parts guy at a dealer nearby looked at me like I had two heads when I asked him about. After a few minutes looking at his computer, he told me he couldn't find anyhting on it. I'd like to replace the one I have. Thanks!

Just a thought I had, but I'm wondering if anyone has ever considered or tried it. It seems that when you delete the IMRCs, you can't take full advantage of the extra flow volume you are getting out of the intake. Since the injector is over the primary port and mixes with the air stream "in...

Just as the title says, 2002 Jeep Cherokee Laredo. 54K, blue over grey w/ grey interior. CD/Cassette/Pwr Windows, Doors...the standard Laredo options. Tires are in good shape, brakes are due to be replaced and may be before selling. Vehicle is in great condition. Was my wife's dd, but she...

Hi All, Since its supposed to be a nice sunny day, I thought I'd bring the snake to worktoday. Went out to the garage to warm it up and the damn thing wouldn't start. The first attempt prodused a strange noise (not really a grind, but almost as if the little spinner that pops out of the...

I was bored this weekend, so I decided to do some maintenance on the car. Its had a slight bog when the RPMs are low and you step on the go pedal, so I thought maybe something was not flowing correctly (either air or fuel). I figured I'd inspect the IMRCs that I cleaned about 10K iles ago too...

Car starts just fine all the time, whether its been warmed up or not. idles around 1000 rpms, then drops down to about 800. after tis fully warmed up, it will drop down to 600 (on my factory tach anyway) and stay there. it doesn't jump around, but if the heater or defogger (any setting that...

I had a suspicion that my coils and wires weren't working properly. It would take a few cranks to get started, for one, and it had a slight bog/miss around 3500 rpms. So, I cleaned the IMRCs a few months ago thinking the miss was from them not opening correctly, still there. Put in new plugs...

Mine's starting to flake. I thought it was just the coating on it, but it looks like the letal is actually starting to break apart and the bolt holes are out of round from the movement. Will an aftermarket brace (like one from MM) work or would I need to either replace right from Ford or...

Are they different? I was under the impression that the cruise was connected separately from the actual wheel. I'm only curious because there's a tan sterring wheel on Ebay. Its listed as still new in box and there isn't that much detail about it. thanks

Ford doesn't seem to sell a saddle steering wheel to match my stocker. Will a saddle one from a GT or V6 fit on the Cobra? Not sure if there was any difference between them. They seem similar, but I'm just curious if anyone's ever swapped for one of those. I'm sure I could rustle one of...
