Where are you guys finding quality parts these days? For the first time in nearly a decade(ok, 8 years) I'm going to pull the intake off my 2001 V6 manual trans LS. I'm doing it because I had a coil fail on the drivers side last year(must be a record for time on a set of coils!) and can now...

The Accel Coils lasted as long as I can expect I suppose but I'm not entirely sure they are the culprit. I was driving hard through the mountains after leaving a construction zone when I noticed my coolant temperature creeping up(I think my thermostat is sticking). On my way back it headed up...

Alright, I'm looking at buying a 2000 v8 that has been converted to an electric fan. The owner claims both the heat and a/c worked before the conversion and now both don't because, as he says, the computer won't let them work because the hydraulic pump is gone. This seems seriously suspect to me...

My mark 8 has a shudder that occurs 80% of the time but the other 20% it's smooth. It does it in any gear, any throttle condition and sometimes seems to shake at idle. Usually it doesn't do it at WOT but sometimes it shakes super bad at WOT. When it shakes bad it has a sort-of booming/rattle...

I finally replaced my clockspring after needing to do it for years. I finally did it because my bulb burned out and was tired of the beeping and having to explain to guests what it meant. Two weeks and everything is great, no beeping, cruise control works again, horn works for the first time...

At first I thought I had a blown head gasket because a 1996 mark I bought was losing coolant and would start to overheat right after I bought it. In diagnosing I noticed that if I let it idle it will start to continuously bubble out the degas tank around 204* coolant temp according to the...

I recently hit the drag strip with my V6 5 speed for the first time and discovered that I can get the same times with the stock tune and torrie tune (Best of 15.2@91). I decided it was time to try another tuner. I went with MPT and now it it feels SO much better in the midrange but the notable...

So I was going to use the search function but apparently it doesn't let you just search the LS forum so here it goes. I recently had a no start problem with my LS. I found out I didn't have any fuel pressure at the schrader valve. I thought it might have been low fuel so I added a few gallons...

So I was talking my buddy to his home today and as I'm getting close to his place I remember how steep the curb is to the parking lot for his place.So I pull up and I start going at an angle like the low riders do on speed bumps. As I feather the clutch out I realize I should be moving and right...

I have my brothers 07' mustang while he's overseas and it won't start. When I put jumper cables on it I noticed that a light that has a lock on it is flashing on the dash. It doesn't even try to crank. The windows, radio, everything work except it won't even try to start. I did a little research...

Last week I raced my brothers 2011 F-150 Supercrew FX4 ecoboost loaded with everything but moonroof against my LS. He won 2 out of three times. The last time I had a perfect launch with just enough wheel spin to get the tail out a hair and it hooked making it to where he didn't get much ahead of...

This doesn't seem like the Shakespearean crowd but I'll maybe someone can help me. I saw this movie as part of one of my classes and I'm hung up on one of the questions my teacher is asking for it. The question is: The story[as in the movie Anonymous] embeds a lot of details from the...

I've always thought I'd tune the car myself but I'm beginning to think it'd be better to save $200(wideband maybe still come) and lots of headaches by getting tunes from Torrie. Here's what here going to do. 1. Adjust the fuel cut down from about 2400 rpm to ~1100 2. Remove the throttle...

I'm getting price quotes from max and he quoted me an 02 TS Sliver Frost LSE grille and an 06 JP silver birch Grille. Do they look like the same color or would I need a repaint for it to match? Anyone have pictures of these different colors on the ls? Another paint related question. Does...

Will in cause other problems like code p0606 ECU processor fault codes? Reason I'm asking is I looked at an 04' taurus with a few Ignition coil circuit faults and it also has a P0606 code that I think is caused by the ignition coils. Does this sound about right.

I'm looking for someone between the Chico, CA and Yuba City area of California that can work a 4pm to 12am shift in Richvale, CA. If you know someone let me know and I'll give you my phone number and details.

I just paid 172.48 with shipping and taxes for all four. Did I get a deal?

After driving the camaro I have around for almost two months and the lincoln sitting I've noticed that my brake pedals seems really, well squishy. I mean more so than my old towncar I used to drive. That other day I went though a construction zone and there were some divots then a turn and when...

http://chico.craigslist.org/cto/2376183907.html She to ride in my LS, but hasn't driven it because it's a stick. It would be replacing an 06' fusion that I owe ~$4k on and blue books for about $11,500. What do you guys think? I was thinking of offering $2,600 seeing what they say.

I'll post this here being as everyone posts :q:q:q:q here that don't belong so why not. I'm going to look at a couple of project cars tomorrow. A 1961 Lincoln Continental hardtop, 1964 Conti Hardtop, and a 1967 Lincoln Conti Coupe. the 61' looks most promising and the seller said is in the...
