    Question: C4 storage disconnect battery or use a maintainer

    Personally I disconnect my battery. I have seen battery tenders go haywire and overcharge the battery creating a caustic mess. Although I will admit this was one of the lower quality versions. I've seen fuel pump relays weld shut on race cars and pump race fuel all over a garage during an...

    considering a c4

    My '95 is a six speed with 3:54 gears. It's a LOT of work and gear changes in heavy traffic. I couldn't imagine a parade, my leg would probably just fall off afterword. :W No way I would I use it as my daily driver. I could if I just HAD to, but for everyday use an automatic is the way to go...

    Strange Idle relating to average mpg display

    Larry, Man .... I'm clueless on this one. My first suggestion would be to check fuel pressure. The goal is to see what its missing (Fuel air spark) when it dies or tries to die. Something is different when it goes into its intermittent error mode. ( no kidding right ? ) :w I suspect...

    Seafoam in the crankcase works well!!

    GM actually makes version of this don't they ? GM Top end cleaner ?:thumb Is that the same basic thing ? I have a can of it on my shelf right now. Toxic stuff, but works great. I'm not sure I'm going to pump it through my LT-1 though.

    OK—My Last OPTI Question??

    It could start right up. Keep in mind its just a spark distributor. It could be 100% on all terminals except one, the one that is producing the miss. Does the miss go all the way through the RPM range ? or does it stop after a certain RPM's ?

    Question: Cross country trip info?

    ok don't laugh ... take a roll of duck tape or Gorilla tape. It works great as a temporary hose, seal, window :eyerole etc. When that big rock flies up and cracks your floorboard in Wyoming ... you can tape up the hole so your feet don't get wet :thumb A little " Alabama chrome will get you...

    considering a c4

    Ok this is coming from someone who has owned 5 Mustangs from 1966,1983,1986, 1987,and a 1999. I've driven my share of the new ones as well. I numbered your questions so I could answer them better. This my OPINION and is not fact. 1. I have read on this forum that the c4's ride quite rough...

    C4 U joint replacement

    No soft mount at all ? I can't believe the engine is mounted in rubber and the tranny has no rubber or poly vibration damper.

    Question: erratic oil pressure gauge

    I think you have a bad oil pressure sending unit or a bad connector or wire going to the unit. :w Yes I've experienced it in more than 1 GM and Ford vehicle.

    factory wheel lock thingy lost, what do i donow?//

    get a nut removal tool that you pound over the top of stripped nuts. Smack that sucker on there twist that lock off and throw it far far away. While your at it throw the rest of them away too! My Dad and uncle both own tire centers and I've changed many, many (too many) tires in my life...

    C4 U joint replacement

    Do the half shafts and the driveshafts use the same U joint ? Do I just purchase six of the same item ? I cant find a specific listing for the driveshaft. ;shrug Also has anyone heard of or used a set of Lakewoods ? they seem to be about twice the price ( 45.00 ) and are billed as " high...
