    Brake Line / master cylinder Question

    Ya I bought the mityvac hand pump. I just received the stop tech ss brake lines and they came with plugs to throw in the stock lines while I work so they don’t drip out all of the fluid. I’m a lot more confident now. Doing ATS brembos, New rotors, Ss lines.

    Brake Line / master cylinder Question

    I planned on bleeding all of the old fluid out from each caliper Bleed valve with a hand pump and refilling from the master cylinder as I go but I was trying not to run the master dry so I wouldn’t have to bleed it? I can’t find any videos or walkthroughs of how to accomplish this or how to...

    Brake Line / master cylinder Question

    I’m replacing my front brake lines with SS lines tonight and wanted to know if I take a line off will it drain my master cylinder? I know I’ll have to bleed the brakes but is it possible to not let it run dry, or will it hold enough fluid with a line disconnected to change it and refill as I...

    Trouble starting this week

    No engine light. Just passed emissions 2 days ago, no codes picked up. Normally it starts pretty quickly until now so hard to compare to usual. How do I check for crank signal?

    Trouble starting this week

    Thanks for all the responses so far! It took a bunch of tries to start when leaving work today as well. I could definitely hear the fuel pump prime when in the on position. There was pressure when I pressed the valve on the Schaefer valve, I’d say as much as when I changed the fuel filter last...

    Trouble starting this week

    Here’s a video from this morning. After it started it drove perfectly 40 mins in traffic to advance auto near my work. Battery and alternator tested good. CCA 515. After the video the car was started twice after my drive. First time it started on the second try and the second time it fired right up.

    Trouble starting this week

    I will stop by another store and get the readout tomorrow and report back. The cables are tight and corrosion free. It makes the normal starter noises and everything sounds strong while it’s happening.

    The battery light kept coming on then stayed on today so it must be the alternator was on its way out.

    Battery voltage at idle.

    When my car is off the battery reads 12.7 and when I turn it on it stays at around 13.65 just testing it in a parking lot with a volt meter. Every once in a while my gauge cluster flickers for a second. Are these normal numbers for a battery/alternator or is something on the way out? Battery is...

    New iac install procedure

    So my car has had some hanging idle and surging and wants to stall in neutral coasting and I cleaned to iac and a lot of characteristics changed so I ordered a new one since they are cheap. Can I simply install it or is there something else I should do to prep it, like pull the battery etc?

    Front trans case, worth anything?

    Many years ago I had my stock tob sleeve snap clean off. To fix this ford replaced the front part of the transmission that the tob sleeve was connected to.
