    intermittent "bucking" in reverse - 94 MTX

    That was it! Glad I got advice from you all. I had a mechanic wanting to open up the transmission. Easy fix for something that seemed so major! Thanks!

    intermittent "bucking" in reverse - 94 MTX

    Thanks guys… I checked the transaxle, and there is no bushing in that little ****** the cable goes through, so my cable is just free hanging where I can pull it back and forth through the hole. I take I need a bushing! Gonna order one on shosource and I'll let ya'll know if that fixes it...

    intermittent "bucking" in reverse - 94 MTX

    I usually do my own work but had a "word of mouth" ex Ford Tech that owned a shop do a bottom end rebuild on my SHO and clutch. They completely wrecked the car. I have slowly gotten it back to normal. However, I think the clutch may have been installed improperly as the car or engine "bucks"...

    Are all MTX 3.0s from 89 to 95 interchangeable? Doing a swap

    My 94 MTX SHO died from crank cancer. I found an 89 with 60k miles on it for a grand. Would I have to do any major mods, or is the 89 engine basically plug and play in my 94? Thanks, Matt

    Crank Cancer?

    OMG I'm off to the Hessen Haus to **** the pain! Ha. @kevin, I was in Petersburg, by Ft Lee, but I drove to Richmond a lot. Got lots of thumbs up. People like my sho cause it's in really good shape...

    Crank Cancer?

    I'd been having problems with my SHO the past few months. I had the timing belt replaced and an underdrive pulley installed about 6 months ago when I did the 60k. Most recently I heard a clicking noise at the front of the engine. I had it checked out and some people said it was a tensioner. At...

    SHO Woes, surging, air box popping, flooding

    Pulled the codes today and this is what I got: 21 Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor out of range - ECT. I bought a new one, haven't installed it. Hopefully that fixes the problem, but I noticed the wire on the sensor to that thermostat outlet was almost off too. Maybe that had something to...

    SHO Woes, surging, air box popping, flooding

    I'll check the cam position sensor. Is that a big job, or plug and play? Here's the MAF I purchased http://www.cnlperformance.com/73mm_sho.html It's a 73mm maf from C&L performance. Thanks a lot, Matt

    SHO Woes, surging, air box popping, flooding

    Hey all, I have a 94 MTX with underdrive pulley, upgraded MAF, y-pipe, and dynomax exhaust. Most recently it started acting up. Some days the car runs just fine, and then as if a switch flipped, it bogs down, I hear popping from the air box, and it won't rev, or go at all. I limp it back...

    Will this 52mm offset 2000+ rim fit on my gen 2 42mm offset SHO?

    Thanks for the replies. The ad is just an example of the rims I found at a wrecking yard for $25 a piece. I would not pay that price either!

    Will this 52mm offset 2000+ rim fit on my gen 2 42mm offset SHO?

    Hi everyone, I have a 94 SHO and live in Colorado. I currently have ADR 18 inch rims on my sho, and they look awesome. Colorado Air Care won't emission test my car because they say the rims are too big for their dynamometer. There's no way around this but to get some stock rims under 17...
