    Chrome Mirrors

    Hello,      Have two Mustang mirrors, not sure of the exact model year.  The first one appears to be lightly used, some very minor pitting in the chrome on the back of mirror. Part # on this one is D1ZB-17743-AA. The second one pictured is brand new with no Ford part #, a re-pop I believe. ...

    Hello, Sorry for the lateness in this response .... very busy of late. Yes, it has been resolved and long story short it was 90% wheel balance and 10% Pittman arm. Keep in mind I have had the wheels balanced at least 3 times by reputable garages with modern equipment. I took the Mustang to a...

    Carburetor

    Hello,     Will have to pull a few spark plugs and see what they look like .... should I pull them all initially or maybe one from each side ?  If I go out at anytime and smell the oil I smell a light odor of fuel in it.  All the vacumn lines and PCV valve are correctly attached and...

    Hello,       Have checked many of the above items.  Car runs well and performs well.  No running on when shut off and no pinging. Choke operates properly and opens all the way when warmed up.  Did have the carb professionally rebuilt a few years ago to stock set up.  My reason for this post is...
