    Overheating and heater blows cool

    So I recently had to replace my cooling fan because the outer rim of the blades cracked randomly. In order to replace it, I pulled it out the top, so I had to remove the coolant overflow tank. The intercooler tank I was able to just rotate out of the way. To remove the overflow tank, I...

    Radiator fan died

    I was pulling into my condo's garage today and thought I ran over something when I heard a quick pop or crack type sound as if running over a piece of wood or something. The car still ran fine but started making a racket, ticking like crazy. I actually thought I broke a belt or a pulley went...

    Speeding ticket in MD, Live in VA

    Hey guys - it's been a while. Haven't been posting here in a long time, but I was hoping maybe some of you may know the answer to this question or be able to help. I just got a speeding ticket in maryland - 81 in a 55, but I live in VA. I swear I was doing between 72 and 74 by my speedo...

    Can a valve stem cap hold air?

    So I haven't driven my cobra in some time now (it's been sitting for winter) but I decided to start her up today and take her to get a wash and just get some miles on it. The battery was dead - no big deal, jumped it and got it started. But the driver's side rear tire was flat. I put air in...

    GT500 sighting

    Saw a mineral greyish with light silverish stripes (sorry I don't know the official color names :-p ) GT500 on Franconia in Alexandria today at the shell. I'll say that I haven't seen many (one other one) in person, but this one was pretty damn nice. I had thought I didn't like them all that...

    Any HVAC specialists?

    I'm having some HVAC problems (not the time of year for this!!!). Last night my A/C apparently quit! Today I had a chance to look at it quick. Now, I'm no expert, but here is what I've found. (I live in a condo FWIW). I think I have a heat pump. I have an indoor blower/fan assembly (where...

    Mustangtuning.com

    Am I mistaken or did we have a MACA member who could hook us up over at mustang tuning .com (now americanmuscle.com, apparently)? I'm looking at the possibility of getting some wheels over there that I like, and thought for some reason that we had a member there?

    Which oil?

    I just bought some Mobil 1 10w30 because I need to change my oil tomorrow, and a while back I remember a discussion about which oil weight was best for slightly modded, and I thought 10w30 won even though it isn't what ford recommends. I'm a little worried though, because it isn't what ford...

    Can you charge R134a without compressor on?

    My pontiac air conditioning system is bone dry. I bought some R134a and some stop leak, but I'm concerned about adding it. I've only ever done it with the compressor running the A/C full blast, but I can't do that because it is so low (completely OUT) that it won't turn on because of the low...

    Stereo shop for fiberglass

    Does anyone know of any *good* stereo shops in the general area (DC Metro area) that are good with fiberglass. My friend wants a custom sub box professionally fiberglassed into his spare tire well. Also, any cost guesses?

    93 cobra, 77k miles, $34,000?

    I was just browsing autotrader and saw a 93 cobra with 77k miles for $34,000. Anyone know the seller? The description doesn't mention mods and from the little pic it gives I can't see any real evidence of mods, but wow, a typo in price or? Here is a link, although I don't think it will work...

    SCT Livewire

    I'm sure you have all heard of it, but I haven't seen any posts in this forum about it? Are any of you using it? For anyone who hasn't seen it, see it here. Looks like you can tune, plus view live data like timing, external o2 sensor A/F ratio reading, IATs, etc. Also has built in...

    Ps3

    If you want your socks blown off, look at ebay right now at what PS3s are pulling. FYI, it costs $600 for the most expensive "best" system, at the store. Highest I've seen them pull yet is $9999, but several in excess of $6,000. UNREAL!!!!! Some of these people preordered only a month...

    Changing s/c oil

    Any of you guys been changing your s/c oil? What interval? I need to do this on both my eatons, pontiac and cobra. Pontiac guys say to use GM supercharger oil but I just saw on cobrabob's website that Steigemeier says to use mobil 10w30? The two blowers are very similar, I think the cobra...

    MACA Fantasy Football Needs more members

    Marlon may have a way to address this, but the draft is tomorrow night, and I just got an email that says we have 8 members and if we don't have 12 by midnight tonight, the league will be disbanded :shrug: I thought we only had 8 last year, but can't remember. Not sure why we absolutely...

    Check this out

    Nothing special I guess, but I just wanted to show this pic that I thought came out good. As much as I like black when it is cleaned up, I don't think I could get away from a nice metallic paint :)

    Interior Detailing

    What do you guys use for the dash and whatnot? I still haven't found anything I like alot, but I'm about to get some new supplies for summer and this is one area I need improvement on. I do like the glossy look, but I don't like the oily feel. Also, I want it to last as long as possible so...

    Fk1 #425

    I got a chance to try my 425 this weekend and I have to say, I wasn't that impressed. From the crazy good reviews Trance has been giving and some others as well I really had my hopes up. This stuff streaked like crazy for me, even in the shade. It was so much harder to use than the Adam's...

    White on Spark plug?

    What does it mean if the strap of your spark plug is white? One of my 8 NGK TR6 plugs was white on the strap when I removed it. Not sure if I should be worried or not :shrug: If it means I was running lean, it could be from before I was tuned with Jon, and was running the general pulley...

    Will K&N FIPK void warranty?

    Jason (undrpresr) had mentioned I had to take off the pullies (of course) and FIPK intake to get warranty, but I'm wondering why the intake needs to come off? Doesn't seem like a mod that ford could claim caused a problem. Unfortunately I didn't save (or simply can't find) the little spacer...
