Hi; My 97 cobra is parked and my 86 2.3 LX winter beater is out! Background; With headlights, turn signal and heater/rear defrost on, the rate at which the turn signal flashes goes down significantly than when there are no accessories running. My assumption is that the electrical system is not...

The timing belt broke on my son's 86 2.3 Mustang. The timing pointer that you align the timing mark on the camshaft sprocket with is missing. Is there any other thing that I can use to align the mark with? Hoping there is away of doing this without having to removing the valve cover to actually see...

I have a 1986 Mustang GT 5.0 with the five speed manual trans. After warm up and when idling, the engine idle speed "surges" (ie. it varies up and down, slightly, but noticeably). Anyone had any experience with this, what is the matter and what I might do to correct it? Thanks a bunch. Larry

I have a stock 5-spd 86 GT. The tranny blew in late '03 and the car has been sitting until present. I got this car for my 18th birthday (I'm 30 now) and was a daily driver until the tranny failure. I have a sentimental attachment to it. My plan is to getting it running again, and then routinely...

When hot my 87 Mustang 5.0 will buck and stall. Normally it will 'restart' before engine dies completely. WHen this occurs the tach drops to 0 RPM even though the engine is still turning (but with no power). Because the tach drops so fast my guess is that the problem is ignition or electric...

When replacing the front brakes with 73 mm calipers (91 Lincoln Mark VII), do you need to get different (bigger, the ones used for a 91 Lincoln Mark VII) size rotors or will the same ones do that are on the car. I realize that you should get slotted rotors. Will the stock rotors on the 87 Mustang...

I have had my 87 Mustang GT now for a few months, but for some reason, like most 'Stang owners do, I feel the need for more speed. I am not very knowledgeable about these things, as I have never tried to fix a car up before. I was just wondering if someone could give me some advice on what mods I...

On two of my fox body mustangs I have unfortunatley encountered (somehow at the same time...;sigh;) the driver's side interior door handle failure. I have had the actuator / and/or rod inside the door-mechanism come apart; although in this case the interior handles gave way and are now sticking out...

Does anyone know were I might find a carbon fiber Mach I hood that fits the '87-93 Mustang GT's? I know its pretty rare in the first place to find a carbon hood let alone if they even make a Mach I style. Greatly appreciate the help, thanks! Nick

Hello everyone. The power door lock doesn't work on the passenger side of my 90 GT, and I suspect the actuator has failed. I've researched this item online, and there's a huge difference between the OEM Ford part (appr. $140) and a reproduction (appr. $60). Should I expect any difference in the...
