Do I need a new clutch or is it my cable/linkage
Hello all… I have 1993 MTX with approximately 145K miles on it. I’d say the issue with my clutch started about a couple of weeks ago when I first noticed that clutch started to grab a little higher. A couple of days ago while I was driving home from work, on several occasions, I had to force...- bigdoggee

Subframe ?
I just replaced my rear sub frame bolts on my 1993 3.0L. Parts dept at Ford informed me that there was a recall and they believed that the 1993 we part of that recall. To make a long story short… my car was in fact part of the recall, but had already been serviced on that recall. Good thing...- bigdoggee

Subframe bushings
Update... found the broken subframe bolt!! It was the "rear" subframe bolt! I'm assuming this is a dealer only part and will go to the dealer tomorrow morning and try and pick up left & right side bolts and bushings...- bigdoggee

Subframe bushings
How would I go about testing or checking my subframe bushings? Also, how many are there and does anyone know how much they cost. In an earlier post (I think it was Steve) made the following comment: "My first inclination would be SFBs or the bolt has pulled out of the body" What bolt...- bigdoggee

car turns but wont start
Update!! I finally had a chance to look around and found my problem. The one thing I failed to mention on my earlier post was that as I took the turn onto my street I heard a loud bang... I have (or thought I had) a problem with my front end and thought that is what it was. As it turns out...- bigdoggee

Low Coolant light
The fan seems to always be on when the car heats up!! Also I am loosing coolant somewhere. I don't see it on the ground so it is buring off before it can get there! I'm thinking that it may be my waterpump.- bigdoggee

Low Coolant light
Would there be any other sensor that would cause the low coolant light to come on other than the sensor in the overflow bottle? My low coolant light stays on even though the radiator & overlfow bottle are full, but my car overheats on really hot days when I turn on the AC. Any thoughts?- bigdoggee

Hello all, I was wondering what are the signs that a fuel pump is on its way out? Mine is very very loud!! The less fuel in the tank the louder it gets. It has been like that for a few months now.
