    Need new corner light set

    BAM!! Found a corner off of an old '94 Sable at the local U-Pull-it for five bucks. Dropped it in, good to go. They are the exact same part. Even marked Ford.

    Need new corner light set

    Okay, thanks Marcel. The deal is I want to get a replacement ASAP. If a car is in good condition generally traffic cops tend to ignore you. I'll see if there are any '92 Sable corners around. Otherwise I will order from off of Ebay. I found some corners for around $20-$30. BTW the...

    Need new corner light set

    Hi all, I um, uh...had an accident. Avoiding one car I hit another. But almost missed it. :biggrin: I just barely clipped the corner of a minivan with the driver side front corner. Anyway, this weekend I fixed the damage to the skirt, I got the headlight array back in and fixed all...

    Where to start, more importantly, where to stop?

    I believe Todd TCE is is a voice of reason. His comment may not be popular, but he is right. You need to think about this VERY CAREFULLY. I'll give you my own experience. I bought a '92 MTX with 100k on it. $1600. But it had a popped diff pin and I didn't know it. I ended up driving it...

    Bumps are very harsh....

    Hey what about MidwestSHO? I have the same problem, I've had locals replace struts and other various suspension parts. Now my ride is harsh. This spring after I get the T-Bird out of the shop I want to fix my suspension, upgrade the brakes, and get a Quaife put in. Oh, and finally throw the...

    Rear driver caliper sticking!

    Hey, thanks!!! I've been down this road too. I've burned through four calipers in two and a half years. And have never thought they were performing like they should. They would always get sluggish, and I'd hear odd sounds like a warped rotor after normal stop and go traffic. I my right rear...

    Detonation?

    Well, It's about two months later, (and 70 some degrees cooler out, nutty weather here). I wanted to post an update, as I hate leaving a post undone. . Here's the scoop. I have two rattles. The loud horrible one, causing some loss of power, and which I only seem to hear in stop and go, or...

    Detonation?

    I don't know. Well I have run the codes, surprisingly simple by the way.... KOEO 111 - System checks OK 219 - SPOUT circuit failure timing defaulted to 10 degrees - follow code 213 diagnosis (213 - Ignition SPOUT or SAW circuit open or shorted) What the crap? 542 - Fuel pump open bad ground or...

    Detonation?

    Hi Guys, Thanks for the help so far. I run strictly 92 or higher octane. And I put fuel injection cleaner through about once every three or four tankfuls. Sorry Jelloslug, I didn't explain that very well. I don't think it's the temp sensors as the temp will increase, (I had it at "N" in July...

    '92 SHO MTX -Tranny/Clutch prob?

    Okay, don't floor so low. I was only flooring at such low RPM/high gear because I had been hearing sounds that were different from normal. I'm probably just overreacting then.... Thanks ------------------ Bryan

    '92 SHO MTX -Tranny/Clutch prob?

    Hi, I hope someone can help. I bought a SHO roughly three months back. The Diff pin was blown, but I didn't know it. So after I got over feeling suckered I took it in and had a used tranny put in and while it was in a new clutch installed too. I didn't feel too bad, I got it for $1650 with an...
