I have no idea what this does and it does not appear in the electrical schematics (at least I haven't found it). Mounts in the radiator.

Just got an email from Hagerty saying according to their vehicle evaluation system, my car is now worth $3K more than before. Are prices for the '01 up?

I know, another one of these threads. After owning my car since new, I have finally decided to consider adding a centrifugal supercharger. I know there are plenty of threads on this topic, and I've read lots of them which has led to as much confusion as clarity. Living in Canada has its...

For the first time in two years, I took it out for a quick cruise around the neighborhood. About 2 years ago I started working on the rear suspension. During that work, I decided to rebuild the front suspension as well. In the middle of all this work, the OA in my hip got so bad I couldn't...

Driving over to Home Depot yesterday I pulled up behind this Mustang. Not paying a lot of attention I finally noticed the "SVT" logo on the trunk. Then I noticed that there was no dual exhaust. I thought that was a bit weird. At the next light I pulled up beside it. What...V6 wheels...Cobra...

Just finished unlocking some hidden features using Forscan and an OBD interface. This stuff is awesome. For now the mods made to my 16 Lariat are: Disabled the annoying double honk if you leave the truck and close the driver door with the engine running. Enabled Quick Boot - Disables the "FORD"...

The DS heated mirror quit working on my 16 F150 Lariat. I guess its off to the dealer to get that fixed and to get the 3 recalls done.

I've read a lot about how to degree the cams in modular engines, but the actual settings are never (at least in my research) discussed. I'm planning to keep the car NA and add on the typical bolt-ons and tune to improve performance. The car is just a toy and only street driven at this time as...

My daughter just left for the hospital. Number 3 grandchild on the way.

Its snowing here again for the 3rd day in a row. roads are still warm enough to melt it and the temperature is hovering around the freezing point. I still had snow in my yard in May. Three months snow free this year. Where is all this global warming everyone is talking about. I guess its better...

The guys in the Terminator section, in general, are bad mouthing Zinc Yellow. Needless to say, I like it. Pictures hide all the road rash. Pic taken just after sunset, or it would hurt your eyes.

So I finally decided to change out the antifreeze in the Cobra. I know, some of you are going to think I'm crazy, but the antifreeze in the car was the factory fill (low mileage car). I have never changed it before now. I did, however, keep an eye on it, and added an extra corrosion protection...

Its time again to change the oil. I hate doing this. The filter is in such a bad place and its hard to keep the oil from running all over the place. I usually cut a piece of cardboard and use it to keep the oil off the rack, but that is messy in itself. I've thought about relocating the filter...

I start this by saying my car only has 81,000 km [50,300 mi] and I've owned the car since new. Until today I had never pulled the spark plugs. No real reason to as the engine is still stock except for a Western Motorsport CIA and I've had no problems. I thought it was time, just to have a look...

Got my FTBR IRS kit before all my other stuff showed up. I believe I'm the first paying customer for the new FT1291 torque brace. I am waiting on the other parts before I get busy with installation. Thanks James and Bruce.

I was looking through the Mustang Owner's Guide the other day looking for the torque spec for the lug nuts (btw - 95 ftlb) when I came across this: "Recommended shift speeds Do not downshift into 1 (first) when your vehicle is moving faster then 24 km/h (15 mph). This will damage the clutch."...

I've searched around and not found much info on the QA1 rebuildable ball joint. They offer a version (P/N 1210-296P) which has a 0.5" extended stud. It could be used instead of the Steeda X2. Its a little less expensive. Some race guys seem to like them. Probably because they can be rebuilt...

I'm planning to do some front suspension work. I currently run Eibach Pro springs and MM CC plates with no other mods. Its basically a road car (no racing). I'm not interested in going with coil-overs or changing K-member and budget is important. I'm thinking: Steeda X2 ball joints MM MMTR-4...

The old OE headlights were pretty cloudy and I had an HID conversion kit so I thought I'd get some new headlights for the HIDs. While running wires for the ballasts I removed the top radiator mounts. I found a Musketeer wrapper shoved up between the radiator and the front crossmember. I guess...

So, how many of you are the original owners of your 99 or 01? I picked up my ride early in April, 2001. At the time I'm guessing it was one of 4 (Zinc Yellow) that made it to Canada that year. Ford does not release Canadian production details, but does release how many total cars made it to...

Winter is just about over here which means I can move the '01 into the garage and get to work on it. One of the projects will be replacing my old Mach 460 system since I'm having some issues. After a lot of research and looking at alternatives I have decided on the following: Pioneer AVC-8201NEX...

I know there is a thread for this in the How To section, but the pictures don't show up anymore and I really want to fix this. Where do you put the RTV?

I am planning to completely rebuild the IRS suspension on my 01 Cobra (which I bought new) as it is now getting a little old. There are a lot of options out there from a variety of OEMs and I'm having problems deciding what to do. I have researched the following (in no specific order): Maximum...
