    Turn the key, everything dies...?

    New battery, new'ish terminals. Hooking the jumper cables directly to the wires (bypassing the terminals) had no effect. Also did a cursory tug and shake on the battery wire bundle, no effect.

    Turn the key, everything dies...?

    I've got a mindfreak going on with my 97 LSC. It spends a lot of time sitting, sometimes weeks at a time. The past couple of drives have gone like this: -Start car. Take a 5min "dust off" drive around the neighborhood. Park it. -Start car 10-15min later, take it on the joyride I intended...

    Speedometer went dead, but only the speedometer

    1997, LSC. Cluster looks identical to the clusters I've had in my 95 and 96 Thunderbirds. I can try popping it out and futzing with it. Hopefully I'll find a part number sticker while I'm in there.

    Speedometer went dead, but only the speedometer

    Symptoms; Needle doesn't move. In the weeks before, it would occasionaaly drop dead for a second or less, them pop back to life. Cruise control works, all the other gauges work, everything hanging out the side of the transmission looks good. So... Is this something just inside the speedometer...

    Cincinnati Oh. I've had it for a few years, haven't had time to work on it or chase land-speed racing like I wanted to. Fortunately its a reliable, clean, comfortable driver, so I've been able to enjoy it that way. -TSW 18" rims, 13" Cobra brake and hub conversion, EMRC delete and tune...

    I've been outof this too long; 1999 Cobra calipers?

    So, I did the upgrade a looooong time ago, had a kid, things sat and sat and sat. Now I'm balding, and I want to find replacement OEM ford Cobra calipers like I had on my HPDE Cougar project (Red,"cobra" on them), but I can't find them with any consistency. Seems a simple request; Ford parts...

    A puzzler: Loose suspension noise, solid feel?

    I was actually considering using my GoPro to get a vid within the wheel well. :)
