2004 Cobra... after sitting for a year my air conditioner not blowing cold. The compressor short cycles which normally indicates low charge, however checking with gauge the charge is spot on. I jumpered the cycling switch so the compressor would constantly run.
The result was the metal ac lines...
I want to inspect my plugs as they have been in for 5 plus yrs, and I am concerned about breaking a plug off in the head. Is it ok to use some penetrating oil to make the removal easier?
Also the plugs have maybe 12k on them, do they need to be changed? The car runs great.
So I get the required tools to reach up to take out the detent bolt, but damn I could not get it to come loose. For fear of breaking something, I stopped and thought it wise to consult the experts. Those who have done it how tight was it? Did it require a breaker or cheater bar? My tool setup...
The reason I ask is a friend had some installed, and when I drove his car it seemed as if his ride quality had suffered. It does not make sense that they would affect the ride, but it seemed to on his. IDK maybe there were other factors at play I was unaware of. Opinions?
After a recent visit to the track my car is slow to start. When I say slow to start it's not the starter not spinning it over quickly, it cranks for several seconds before lighting off. This is about two or three times as long as it was before. This only occurs after sitting several hours or...
First time down the 1/4 since pullied/ported. I ran a 12.84 @ 110 with intake exhaust a few years ago. Yesterday at a track rental I gave it a go to see what she had..these are the results.
60= 1.95
330=5.3
1/8 -8.0 @96
1/4 = 12.1 @120
I wanted to try again for an 11 sec pass...
60=...
I have the opportunity to get a great deal on two brands/sizes. First the BFG 275/40/17 DR, the other is M and H DR in size 275/50/17. I know the BFG has proved itself, and probably can't go wrong there, but I can't help but think that the M and H (28 in tire) extra sidewall may allow for a...
I am looking for a high quality attractive license plate frame. I like the chrome/red SVT one, but not sure how it would look on Mystichrome. Any help appreciated.
Posting for a fellow Cobra owner. Sometimes while driving the car will just cut off, then start running again (off and on again quickly like you were flipping a switch). Today he was driving and it quit, and would not restart until it cooled off. Going of the advise off a local shop they...
So a buddy of mine has '03 Cobra w/2.80, intake,catless exhaust puts down 576 RWTQ on a Mustang dyno(no load, just inertia). Anyhow he gains 78tq from the port. I find this highly unlikely( I was there to see the pull). It was about 65 degrees w/ 50% humidity(better conditions than his pre port...

I have a bud (very bummed out right now) with a 98 Cobra who was going from 3rd to 4th @ WOT, and it would not go into gear. He say's it's stuck in neutral, and the shifter is very stiff. He states the clutch feels normal. Any ideas on what broke?
mods are in sig... From Steggy's site it claims 1450 cfm for a stage IV port. I know my 4 x 6 filter is not capable of such flow. So my question is with a 2.93 pulley/ported blower am I leaving power on the table(due to insufficient airflow from a small filter)? Anyone know how much air a 2.93...
I have the orignal JLT in fender CAI that has a 4 x 6 filter... I would like to step up to a 9 inch setup. It is a fairly tight fit now, but I am curious if anyone has gotten a 9 in there. If so please describe the process. TIA
Ok guy's I have alway's noticed an amonia like smell after a dyno pull (noticed the same on other Cobra's). I am smelling this all the time now even when at idle. Does this suggest a cat converter problem? Any ideas?:beer:
Ok, I just installed my ported blower..now how to add my coolant. I took out the crossover plug and saw that it was full..started it up(heat on high) and it bubbled out (little). I then just filled my intercooler res, closed everything up and let the car warm up. Both upper and lower hose got...
