    "Downgrading" from EATC to regular HVAC controls

    I'm not a fan of the Electronic Automatic Temperature Control these things have. If it's summer I've got it on 60* with max fan or on max AC, if it's winter I've got it on 90* and max fan. It doesn't work worth a :q:q:q:q if you leave it on 75*, the only thing that's good for is a 2+hr road...

    93-94 Ford TSP (Service Manual) CD available online again

    I guess the title should say available for download, not available online... Anyway, I finally got around to making an ISO image of my TSP CD and uploaded it: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VS1HNZ6T You'll need to download the ISO, then do 1 of 2 things: You can burn it onto a CD with most any...

    So what would cause this thing to explode?

    Pic attached is (most) of a crank reluctor wheel from my friend's 97 LSC. It doesn't appear to have done much other damage, fortunately. But the question I have is... why would a solid piece of metal that's not load bearing in any way just randomly explode? Oh, and since we're already at...

    Put the Mark on the dyno today...

    The car's a 93 Mark VIII, with a 100% stock motor (only mods that may have had a tiny effect on power are removed air silencers and muffler delete.) The guys running the dyno stopped the pulls at 5250rpm. My tach needle reads high by 500rpm, which I forgot to tell them about. So although my...

    17x9 Cobra R's rubbing and acting weird.

    I know my way around a car, but I'm not a wheel expert. So I took the 17x9 Cobra R's off my TBird and installed them on my Mark VIII. I like the way they look way better on the Mark, but I'm having some problems... First, they never rubbed on my TBird, but on the Mark they're hitting just...

    Strange trans. issue, doesn't want to upshift from 1st

    So my friend's 97 LSC's trans is acting weird. In Drive, from a stop, the car will stay in first until you ease off the gas (almost like a bad vacuum modulator on an non-electronic trans.) Then it'll shift into second, and act normal through the 2-3 and 3-4 shifts. When it's refusing to shift...

    F'in hoax!

    Yesterday I was telling someone how I was almost at 40k of relatively trouble free ownership on this Mark VIII (alternator, oil filter adapter gasket were all the problems I had.) Today I'm driving a 375mi round trip to Tucumcari NM. On the way I wind it out to the 130 limiter catching up to...

    Inertia switch needs to be reset after battery disconnect?

    Say someone were to disconnect the battery on a 98 base for a few weeks, then reconnect it and try to start the car. Should there be any reason the fuel pump cutoff inertia switch would need to be "reset?" I was under the impression that the only time it needed to be reset is if it...

    So how many cars will I put on a 5.0 TBird

    How many carlengths do you think I'll put on a 5 point slow Thunderbird? I'm in an essentially stock 94 and won't be spraying, AFAIK the TBird is stock too. The closest guess will receive one cookie. :D

    Bad neon brakelight on a gen2 and "how much would you offer" questions

    I looked at a gen 2 on Thursday, considering picking it up if I can talk them down from the $4400 they want to something reasonable. It's a silver 97 base with a few problems like the front bags leak, the windshield is cracked, and it made a pretty decent oil cloud on startup but stopped...

    How much do you think I could sell a rear for?

    I've got a rebuilt rear sitting here, I'm thinking about going a different direction with my car... It's setup with a rebuilt trac lok and 4.10 FRPP gears. 28 spline, differential itself was originally from an IRS TBird. I'd like your opinion on a ballpark range I could get for it if I sold...

    Gen 2 seats in a Gen 1

    Will they just fit directly in? Or what would I have to do to get them in? I have an opportunity to score a set for fairly cheap, front and rear. The search function didn't do me any good.

    Can I use an aftermarket amp with JBL speakers?

    I'm getting the parts together to set up a PC based info/entertainment center. I haven't really looked at the stock system, but I'd like to use the stock JBL speakers if I can. My amp (or maybe CD head unit, I dunno) is acting funny, when it's cold it doesn't produce much volume and pretty...

    I need a grille (broken/poor condition preferred)

    So the toothless look my car currently has isn't working for me. I'd like to try my hand at fiberglassing and make one, since I don't really like the stock one and they're expensive anyway. What I'd like to find is a stock grille I can use in the process of making a mold (to keep the...

    Video: 94 Mark VIII vs 97 Park Ave Ultra

    Well I got a camera, so I figured I'd race my friend in his 97 Park Ave Ultra and record it. His car is 100% stock. Mine just has the mufflers and intake resonators removed, and some AR94 plugs for nitrous but it was agreed I wouldn't spray this time. It was also agreed the camera guy would be...

    So my Mark VIII ran a quicker time than my ETC did

    Went to the track today, 6300ft. density altitude. Best slips were 2.466 60', with a 15.91 @ 90.02, then a :q:q:q:qty 2.633 60' ending in a 16.020 @ 90.27, maybe if I'd had a better launch it could've done 15.8s. My ETC's best time is a 16.001 @ 89.945. Both are an iota away from stock. So...

    Alternator interchange

    Are the 93-94 alternators interchangeable with the 95-96? I tried a search but either the search engine here sucks or I just don't know how to use it properly. Mine crapped out (94, 85k miles) and I'd like to upgrade to the newer one.

    Spark plug gap

    I'd look through modularfords but they're down... I've got a 94 and the nitrous is going on this weekend. I'll be running a 150 shot eventually, I'm starting with a 65 shot. So I'm running Autolite AR94s, which are 2 heat ranges cooler than stock. What do you guys reccomend?

    Question on the windshield wiper (multifunction) switch

    My wipers are out and have been for a month or two... doesn't really rain much here, but anyway. The multifunction switch makes a funny noise, sounds like it's shorting or something, anyway I believe that's where the problem lies. My question is this: what the heck are pulse wipers? I'd...
