Holy...crap! I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate this post. I was planning on changing the oil anyway but never thought about fuel contaminating the crankcase and very well may have put off the oil change until it warms up a little and I had more time. Now I'll make sure that its done...

It's a mechanical pump, no upgrades there. And by pumping like an artery, I mean really pumping. I'm pretty sure it's a Carter M6588 that's on it now, straight connection with no regulator, and from where the aluminum meets the brass (or whatever metal the bottom half is made of) it's sending a...

After sitting for about three months I started my car this weekend and immediately noticed an issue with the fuel pump, it's literally pumping fuel like a torn artery. I'm looking at replacements and was hoping someone would have advice on what's my best option. I don't think I had issues with...

Lately I've been having issues with the car wanting to stall when giving gas from a dead stop (pulling out of a parking space, etc). It'll start to stall for about a second, then accelerate like I've given it too much gas. It reminds me of turbo-lag when you have a really laggy setup. It doesn't...

I recently had to replace the battery in my '72 Mach 1. After looking around I decided to invest a little extra in an Optima Red Top, mostly for the long life and resistance to going flat if the car isn't driven that often. I live in an apartment complex so, while I have covered parking, there's...

Has anyone checked out the Scott Drake kit offered on CJPony? https://www.cjponyparts.com/scott-drake-front-power-disc-brake-conversion-kit-with-drilled-slotted-rotors-automatic-transmission-v8-1971-1973/p/DBCA134ADS/ I've been researching brake options and like the option of a total kit with...

Wow, thanks for all the info. I did find the dimmer switch under the e-brake. I'd seen it before but assumed it was a buffer or something to keep the e-brake from tearing up the carpet since it was locked solid and the position seemed off but once I got down there I figured it out. I'm going to...

Ahhh...That makes sense, the PO told me it was a factory air car but he wasn't exactly accurate on a few things here and there so I wouldn't be surprised. I guess maybe the passenger side is just stuck. I'm planning on replacing the entire AC system with a classicair system this year so that'll...

Under the dash are two pull type levers that for the life of me I can't figure out what they operate. I know it's a stupid question, but does anyone know what these operate? On the driver's side I have the emergency brake release (which the PO disconnected apparently, but that'll be a project...

Hello everyone! I've been lurking on the site for over a year now and always swore that when I finally bought a car I'd register for the forums and post to thank everyone. I've wanted a classic mustang ever since I was 16 and my dad refused to let me buy my buddy's '67 coupe. I was driving home...
