I appreciate all the replies and that’s why I’m basically asking 12,000 or best offer
I’m aware that the car is worth 8k on the high end as everything is basically in immaculate condition including brand new tires on top of it all.
Yes I’m aware I can basically get around $2500 for the...
Yup I appreciate all the replies and yeah I don’t have any time to do any kind of modification or tweaks to the car that’s why I’m just selling it as is and somebody else can take on it make make the necessary rebuild to make it running smooth again and then they would have a great car out of...
Yeah I don’t have time to get it fixed or the energy
I figure it’ll be a great project for somebody to build a motor anyways with forged internals and then the car will be great with the blower run it over

Hi guys,
I am just wondering where is the best place for me to list my 99 cobra for sale? Should I put it under my respective forum of 99/01 New edge or is there a spot where I should list it where everybody can see it which is what I prefer?

All I can do is go by what the two mechanics that I’ve looked at my car have said. I have not been driving it at all since this happened. I have another car that I drive as my daily driver. Yes ultimately the engine will need to be torn down to find out ultimately what’s wrong with it as that is...
Can you please explain a little bit about the aviator engine and maybe even a link for me to check it out if it’s not too much trouble. I tried typing that in online on Google and I found some things but I’m not too familiar with this kind of stuff but I’m willing to learn and do my research...
Well after a second opinion I am now told that a shop in Troy, Michigan feels that they are very confident it’s a wrist pin that went bad in cylinder eight and he recommends a complete engine rebuild.
So just curious what your guys thoughts are on this forum.
If that part truly went bad is the...

Ty I appreciate that detailed description. I am initially going to try out a place in the Utica and Van Dyke area in Sterling Heights who my mechanic personally recommended were by the sounds of it very honest and they charge very very fair and I’ll go from there

Not sure I will check and let you know but I believe my mechanic did look at the plug and I believe he said it did look fine but I will double check. He was semi-confident that it’s not the piston/rod but he feels it’s something in cylinder eight he’s pretty confident but as mentioned before he...
I can pull that and look hopefully tomorrow or so but let me know what are symptoms once I pull the plug if it looks a certain way and what would that mean etc? Ty

Honestly ever since I’ve heard the noise I haven’t driven it for more than a 10 minute increment and I’ve only done that twice. My next question to you is how long do I need to let the car run for it to fully be warmed up to see if the knocking stays the same, fades away or quiets down?
And no I...
When you say change the oil weight do you literally mean like me doing oil change from mobil one full synthetic 5W 30 to another like like 10W 30? I guess please just be more simple with what you’re asking because I understand some mechanical terms and things but not everything. Thanks

Well to update 3 weeks later he changed all the driver side lifters it wasn’t that n then opened it up again and removed followers n did a leak down test. No issues found.
Couldn’t quite figure it out and then he did a compression test on each cylinder and the right side all read the same and...

I was just wondering is there a place where most people buy them from quality wise perspective and if anyone on this forum would recommend me to change the one bad lifter or just change all of them on the driver side since I would have everything pulled apart.

Well guys I posted a video last week about a knocking sound and my mechanic just called me and he says he’s pretty confident that it’s a driver side lifter. In saying that if I do have to buy these replacement parts where do you recommend I buy them from website/link etc? Best pricing/best...
Well I just talk to my mechanic and he thinks and I’m hoping that it’s a lifter on the driver side for sure he says. He’s gonna rip it open right now and let me know. In saying that if I do have to replace a lifter or all of them on the driver side what replacement part or parts do you recommend...
Yeah I see used ones on eBay for around 50 bucks so my car is at the mechanic shop right now I’m gonna wait for his answer first and then go from there. Thanks case

I am praying it’s a blown spark plug fingers crossed as after doing further research and watching videos on YouTube of my exact car and other Fords it sounds almost just like it even as I drove it to shop. Pray for me guys as I’ll know by next week likely[emoji1374]

After doing some further research I think and I’m praying that I blew a spark plug out because that’s what it exactly sounds like. I’ve blown one out before but fingers crossed that is what it was

Ya if it has anything to do with engine swap or rebuild that wouldn’t be for me LOL. At that point I’ll probably just end up selling my car as is. Fongers crossed it’s not that bad but we shall see what happens. I’m preparing for the worst regardless
