On earlier modeled Mustangs and Capris, the tachometer had a little switch to choose between 4, 6 or 8 cyclinder. They may have gotten rid of it but I would...
I concur, my '86 has that switch hiding behind the cluster bezel. I believe '87 and up got rid of that switch and you have to have the specific tach for the...
This is not a Mustang related issue but I can't find an answer at the dealer or any of the other groups I'm on. I have a Toyota Previa AWD van and lately the...

Man, that sounds like a LSD in need of Limited Slip additive. Raise the rear wheels off the ground and put the van in neutral. Spin one wheel. If the other...

Gene, I checked with the dealer, who also looked up with their online system, and they confirmed that the diff is not an LSD type. I repeatedly asked about ...

Nice. How much did these units run you complete? Zinc washed? Cryo'd? You're running with Cobra brakes but you're running with 12" rotors? Is this a limitation...

Clogged diff vents can cause high pressure in the diff housing, and often can increase the likelihood of leaks, but it wouldn't cause something like this (from...
30k certainly isnt an excessive amount of miles, the dirt on the vent doesnt surprise me. if the gears did seize i wouldnt expect to see any metal. some metal...
Correct - the 12" rotors are a CMC requirement. George - the new Coleman rotors are the same thickness as stock Cobra rotors ( 1.125" ). That is another rule...
Ditto for the costs $225 & $62, but my rotors were 13.200" and ran me $318. As for the JetNuts, those are special threaded (almost cross-threaded) style, and I...
Just a follow up. This morning I drove the van to get some gas and I found that when cold the diff makes no noise. by the time I drove about 2 or 3 miles it...
