Help with door panels
eventhorizon replied to eventhorizon's topic in Interior, Seats, Door Panels, Trunk, Glass, etc
Thanks kcmash, the manual and a video for a 71 door disassembly said allen head screws. Tried 1/4 and 5/16, neither seemed to work so went up to a thin 3/8 socket but the fit was pretty snug, didn’t want it to get stuck, luckily i have a set of deep sockets, tried the 3/8 and that was it thanks again -
Help with door panels

Hi i have a 1972 Mach 1 with standard interior, nothing but arm rest and door handle, am trying to get door panel off but seems like armrest is preventing me, there are screw holes on the bottom of the arm rest but it doesn’t look screws in there, can someone tell me how to get the door panel / armrests off? thanks Thomas -

Ok, this may be a dumb question but, i have been running un-leaded in my 1972 mustang (that is why i bought a 72, i didn't want to mess with lead additives). I was looking at the 72 owners manual to see what octane was recommended and it says that all 1972s are designed to operate on "regular" gasoline. To me, regular means leaded. What should i be using? Thanks. Thomas

Hi, is there anyone in the general area of Quakertown, PA that knows where i can get gas without ethanol? i know the Wawa up by I80 has it but that is a little too far to go for gas. Thanks for the help. BTW, for those of you who were helping me with the idling/stumbling problem, whoever said vacuum leak wins, every carburetor gasket was leaking. rebuilt the carb and it runs fine now. Thomas

Rear quarter window question
eventhorizon replied to eventhorizon's topic in General Maintenance and Repair
Thanks. I guess i will just do what the instructions i have says. Maybe they used 3 different winder mechanisms, one for each year. On the bright side, I have a pair of coupe quarter windows if either of you need them. Thomas -
I have been buying parts from ebay and aftermarket to convert my sportsroof rear quarter windows to roll-down. I have questions and as Mad Max would say "you have the knowing of a lot of things". i have bought supposed complete sets and a lot of parts and pieces plus aftermarket stuff (but i would like to stay stock). finally getting ready to do this (sorting parts out and cleaning them) going by the VERY complete instructions from a guy who already did this to his. i got all the parts and extra parts laid out (i have multiple of everything) and noticed that i have 3 different kinds of roll d

Sorry, i should have know better. The car was sitting for about 3 years. i started it a few times to get the engine warmed. starts ok, idles ok at 16 on the vacuum guage. i had a friend replace the upper gasket on the the carb because he said it was causing a vacuum leak. now, car won't drive under any kind of load. no matter how i ease into it when i give it some gas it stalls out. the car is the original ford 4300, original distributor, new spark plugs and wires. fuel line is clear, new fuel filter accelerator pump seems ok, i haven't checked the distributor. only
