    Valve cover reinstall question

    So you did NOT have to do the step whereby you took out the bolts under the dash behind the brake pedal assy and just removed the MC itself and the brake lines to the frame (I know where you're talking about on that)? Edit : did any PS fluid come out when you unbolted it, or will it only leak...

    Valve cover reinstall question

    All the way around the inner rim of the plug grommet or do you mean on the mating surface of it where it sits on the valve cover itself?

    Valve cover reinstall question

    Where does the Ultra Black RTV go exactly when reinstalling the valve covers on the 4.6? I've read where it meets the timing cover, to hold on to the plug seals, to hold on to the gasket itself during reinstall, but thought I'd ask to be sure. Also if anyone has any updated pics or walkthrough...

    96-04 Mustang/Cobra owners with WORKING cruise control, need your help!

    So after going through two sets of brand new switches from Ford that tested out of range for two of the buttons. Per AlldataDIY and Mark on here, I have confirmed that I have the correct ohm ranges, which for the switch is a specific resistance +/- 10%. Here is a vid I made on how to test them...

    What is my FR500 exhaust worth?

    Been thinking of getting a diff exhaust since I've had the same one for 10 years now. I had someone offer $600 a few years ago and was wondering if people still hunt for FR500 stuff? It's got about 50k, no rust or corrosion (SS and So Cal!), but does have denting on one of the mufflers - kind of...

    For Sale 96-01 Cobra timing cover 4.6 DOHC - $100 obo

    Part number is F5LE-6D080-AB as seen in pictures and I got it for my 99 Cobra, or it is my original one, I honestly can't remember. That's why I included the part number so you can make sure it fits before buying it. It is in good shape and just don't need it since I'm not powdercoating the...

    Looking for the entire drop-in assembly to replace my existing center console interior piece with one that has the fold-out cupholder (stock ones don't work well with a manual :().

    Viable alternative to a GoPro?

    I was looking into getting one but they are just flat out expensive for basically a digi cam in a polycarbonate case with a variety of attachments. Is there any company out there (yet?) that offers something like it with similar resolution, megapixel size, frame rate, etc.?

    Question re: driving w/o current registration in California

    This is of course hypothetical, but what is the punishment for driving without registration? Let's assume in this example the driver has insurance but the tags have expired and he or she is driving. Is it up to the officer to decide between giving a warning, or writing a fix-it ticket, or could...

    Replacing pinion seal w/o dropping IRS carrier?

    My pinion seal on my '99 Cobra is leaking and I've heard that there is a way to replace it w/o removing the carrier by using a solid (non-crush) collar, marking the nut before removal, and tightening with an inch-lb wrench. Obviously there is more to it, but these were the absolute bare bones of...

    Thoughts on recent California DMV vs. Courts re: DUI charges?

    I read a story recently about the DMV suspending people's licenses for a DUI even if there were found not guilty, were acquitted, or had their charges dismissed (they are not the same according to the DMV). While getting more impaired drivers off the road is ALWAYS a good idea, I wanted to see...

    Anyone in or around Fayetteville, NC with a welder and grinder?

    With the tow hitch that I'm working with, two of the attachment tabs (well, they aren't tabs really, more like 1/4" thick steel) need to be removed and new ones welded in place, if not reusing the existing ones. Unfortunately I don't have a welder or grinder, much less the know how to do it...
