I have a 460, not sure from what year as previous owner did not know either. The fuel pump is not sucking the fuel and I am about to replace it the pump. I cannot find a pump with the same bending of the arm. I found one that looked similar but it was on an Australian site, the other side of...

Hi! I am having a little trouble of finding Type F transmission oil. Can I use Type G? I read somewhere it would work but I just want to be safe and consult the forum. The Type G oil I found says it supports Ford M2C33-F and G, Borg Warner. Thanks in advance! ::thumb:: Best regards Thomas

Hi! I stumbled upon a loose, black, thicker cable underneath the dash on the drivers side a couple of months ago. I forgot about it but found today again. It looks like the cable were cleaned cut so I taped the end to be on the safe side. I followed the cable to the engine compartment were it...

Hi! I just got my car started after a couple of shitty 6 months. I can't believe the cash I paid for this car and how many problems I've got with it. Feels like an endless shitstorm. What I have done in the engine compartment is: -Re-routed the PCV system with new hoses and PCV valve as the...

Hi! I suppose this has been posted to death. I keep on finding things I wonder regarding my car. Yesterday I was starting to work on setting up the PVC and breather hoses when I decided to take a peek inside the distributor cover. I found a Pertronix Ignitor. I also found a loose wire. The PO...

Hi! I am wondering if anyone knows the dimensions of the speed nuts used to fasten the rear side marker bezel to the body? My PO had fastened the bezels with glue! Now I am in the process of installing new side marker lights but stupid as I am I did not check what kind of fastener/nut was used...

Hi! I have a 460 with Holley 600 (12R-10554B) and a C6 tranny from a Lincoln in my '73 Mach 1. There is no kickdown rod and this is how I bought the car (lack of experience). Does anyone have any tips about what kickdown rod to use, if I should fabricate one or if I can use a generic C6 cable...

I had my '73 I bought last autumn at the car inspection a month ago to get it road legal. Turns out I do not have a NSS mounted on my C6 tranny, and you are not allowed to be able to start the car other than in P and N. I bought a NSS and when I was going to mount it I was not able to because...

I was going berserk, almost, yesterday when trying to go through some loose cables left by the PO. I found some, to me, deviations. I am learning as I am going but following the wiring schematics for none standard cables is for an untrained person almost impossible. I found one cable connected...

Hi! I found this wire harness with connectors stuffed into a hole in the floor under the carpet below the passenger seat. I was happy it was not removed by the PO. I found the corresponding green and brown connectors under the passenger seat. I figured the green and brown connector goes to the...

Hi guys! I have a C6 automatic. Yesterday I was doing some interior work and by accident noticed that I can change gear from N to D without engaging the button on the gearstick handle. I guess this is not good. Any idea what I can do? Perhaps some loose mechanical part or can it be the shifter...

Hi! I found out I seem to be missing the folding rear seat bumpers. What do they look like, are they reproduced or can I invent something by myself? I see there are bumpers for '69-'70 (I think it was), could they work as a substitute? Best regards Thomas

Out of curuiosity, how is the hood molding mounted? I found theese http://www.cjponyparts.com/hood-molding-hardware-14-1971-1973/p/F3869/ I am missing some of the nuts, but wonder how they are attached to the molding? I attached a picture of my molding, sorry for the darkness.

Hello everyone! I bought my dream car last week, a yellow 1973 Mach 1! I've been in love with this car since I watched the original Gone In 60 Seconds movie from 1974. Former owners to my car have replaced the engine with a 460. Unfortunately the Ram Air have been removed. I am completely new...
