    Loss of power after WOT

    Sorry for the delay but it turned out to be the fuel pump. A couple weeks later, I went to go home from work and the slobra wouldn't start. Had no fuel pressure at the rails so that seemed to have settled the guesswork. Swapped the pump out and she is back up and running. Now to fix the weird...

    Loss of power after WOT

    2001 Cobra with 180k. I have been having a weird issue lately where the car would shut down after running up to 6k rpm wide open throttle. Gear selection does not matter and seems to happen when I start the car and let it idle for 10 min or so. Yesterday, I started the Cobra and let it warm up...

    Q: What Does a Cobra Do When The PCV Valve Fails?

    So... It's been 5 years. Other than replacing the clutch, nothing else has been done to her. She now has almost 185,000 miles (~135k when bearings were damaged) and is still running strong! We are about to get a house so she may be coming off the road soon and either be refreshed with some new...

    Mark VIII's come with a cast 6 bolt crank instead of the forged 8 bolt crank. Will need to purchase a flywheel for a Mustang GT.

    Q: What Does a Cobra Do When The PCV Valve Fails?

    A: It start knockin' on Heavens door! So just a quick short story. I did an oil change a few months back and fill up with some Amsoil 5w20. Put 6 quarts in and called it a day. Fast forward a couple months later, I got on her hard and quickly noticed a ticking noise shortly after. I could not...

    2001 Cobra Exhaust Sound Clip

    Just a small video/sound clip of my 2001 Cobra. Exhaust mod includes O/R x-pipe and a modified M58 Catback. Had to replace the dual mode mufflers after one of them caught a raised manhole cover. Hoping to rebuild the dual mode mufflers since its only the sheet metal that is damaged. SoBzgtxMObM

    Eibach Pros or Tokico Springs

    I'm currently running the Eibach Pros but the Tokico kit I purchased came with the Tokico springs. Should I keep the springs that came with the D-Spec shocks or use the Eibachs instead? I tried finding the spring rate info on the Tokicos but have not yet had any luck. Anyone know this info? The...

    Where Are The Suspension Gurus???

    Well, I'm finally going to bite the bullet and upgrade the suspension. The Cobra is a quasi daily driver(seem to drive the bike more often) and will more than likely not race her on the track. I do enjoy the curves and onramps though and would like to see some improvements in the IRS capability...

    IRS Diff cover leaking....

    Simple question.. How difficult is it to replace the gasket on our diffs? I'm not ready to yank the IRS out to add gears, bushings, and braces just yet.

    Anyone here in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area?

    I'm in the area for the weekend and looking for stuff to do. Car hangouts/meets would be cool. Wish I had the Cobra with but the Ford Fusion I'm in is a lot of fun! I'm going to post this in another area but would enjoy hanging out with some fellow New Edge owners. :beer:

    93 Mark VIII motor in a 97 Expedition.. Can it be done?

    My brother and dad purchased from an auction a 1997 Expedition that has a 4.6 SOHC motor in it. It turns out that it has a slight rod knock. My brother also has a 1993 Lincoln Mark VIII that was smacked in the right front of the car less than a month ago. The motor seems to look untouched other...

    LEOS.. What would you do?

    A few nights ago I was driving down a four lane highway just cruising aimlessly. Speed limit on the road was 45mph. I was floating between 45 and 50mph. I pull up to a stop light and a Mustang GT pulls up next to me. Light turned green and we drive off normally. Stopped at another light and the...

    Frustrating!!!

    It's been a while since I cleaned my car. Well I'm heading to the bank and notice a decent car wash. On the way home, I stop by and have the car detailed. They clean the car up and she is looking awesome again! People are noticing her again, giving thumbs up and I feel better that she is clean...

    Iraqi Gearheads

    I know we could sit here and crack on their cars, the mods, and how they think they are fast. That fact that they are enjoying American sports cars, to me at least, is pretty impressive. This seems to be a positive sign of improvement over in Iraq as well. My curiosity though is how much...
