    car shuts off after throwing into neutral

    The reason the car starts when you put the throttle to the floor is because it was partially flooded. If you crank the car with the gas pedal down it won't pulse the injectors and draws everything from the intake, which is enough to get the car to start. Its basically the opposite of how a...

    94 ATX tranny kaput - what went wrong?

    This is exactly what my car sounds like. It keeps throwing the passenger axle out of the tranny. Did you locate the source of your problem?

    Bad Axle or something worse?

    So far, this was what I was leaning towards.. Axle was definitely seating fully, just popping out. Tranny will spin wheels in gear when front end is still up in the air after axle swap. Only when put on ground will the axle pop... Definite free play in driveline when dropping into gear...

    Bad Axle or something worse?

    Passenger side axle went out in my 93 A/T. Replaced axle with new unit, compared with old axle, Its correct. C Clip seems to seat in Tranny. Hard turn pulls the Inboard CV joint out of the tranny... Lower control arm/ball joint needs replaced but still, enough free play to pull the axle from...

    Please Help

    It could be 100 different things. Pull the codes or take it to an independent shop that will pull them for cheap if you don't know how. Check the intake boot between the Mass Aiir Flow and the Throttle Body for a tiny rip or tear. Make sure the clamps are tight. Any vacuum leak between...

    Strange Gremlin in my Tranny and rear door..

    ..But apparently you are sucker enough to own Chevrolets!:rofl: Dexcool destroyed intake gaskets FTW! Actually I got the car at an auction from the transmission shop. Apparently the owner did not want to pay the $2480 bill that the full rebuild ended up costing, and i picked the car up for...

    Let's here someof your "OPINIONS" on the best way to clean your motor.

    Winner! Yeah its FWD. 91-95 Legend 96-04 (rebadged RL) use a non transverse motor and a differential. The SHO reminds me of a Legend. I have a thing for nice sedans i guess :)

    Let's here someof your "OPINIONS" on the best way to clean your motor.

    Man those are some tasty looking motors a few of you have. Basically any engine cleaner will do the trick, the important thing is to MASK OFF your spark plug wells and big electrical connectors with sandwich bags and masking tape. B-12 Chem cleaner or Acetone will make the extra tough stains...

    Strange Gremlin in my Tranny and rear door..

    Alright so whenever i put the 93 auto sho i just got into gear, it makes a HORRIBLE noise as it goes through neutral. The first time it happened i thought it was my planetary gears stripping. After a little investigating, turns out its the rear passenger door lock actuator. It also makes the...

    Oh my god, I want to become an hero!

    Glad you got everything worked out. One thing i had forgot to mention, and i don't know if it applies to DOHC, but on a SOHC if your timing is off then one bank will read significantly less compression.

    Oh my god, I want to become an hero!

    Can you be more clear on the symptoms you are having? Im pretty new to the SHO but not to Ford EEC-IV. If the car will start, you should definitely pull codes and do the wiggle test. Did you try running a ground wire to the plenum where the module sits? Did you use a spray bottle of...

    Sho nuff, i got a few new(bie) questions (pics)

    Thanks guys for the responses. Throttle Body Bypass- Meant to ask about that. Wasnt sure if those hoses were needed for the IAC. Now Ill just bypass. Interior parts- My sunroof is leaking like ****, and the headliner for just the sunvisor part is trashed. So are the console lights and...

    Oh my god, I want to become an hero!

    Ok.. are you guys saying the white marks wont lineup with both the cam gears and the timing cover marks? That makes sense to me. What doesnt make sense to me is that the white marks arent going to line up with the timing cover marks every time it makes a full revolution. I understand why they...

    Sho nuff, i got a few new(bie) questions (pics)

    Alright, when i took my plenum off to do my valve covers, we had a cold storm, and my memory of what hooked up to what was a little foggy. I got the vacuums hooked up ok, but there were a couple of molded hoses I had removed and i want to make sure i hooked them up right. The pics didn't come...
