    1989 rough idle and engine light

    If it were me I'd change the rod bearings. That's 1st thing I do when I buy a used SHO.

    Engine Shakes, No butterflies at 4K RPM

    Does the engine lift up on the front when you push the gas while in park?

    24 hours of Lemons

    Haven't heard everything yet, but the team formally know as El Toro Loco now known as Starsky and Hutch took 3rd. RRRR now known as Mash lost a clutch and ended with a engine knock. Don't know where they finished.

    What do you guys use for strut mounts??

    Do you have the Moog metal end links or those plastic looking ones. When I 1st bought my blue92 I replaced the end links with the plastic looking ones and around 20k of driving I got the popping sound. First we replaced the strut mounts thinking that was the issue, nope still popping. Tony then...

    rough sho

    Sounds to me this SHO needs a 60/120k maintenance. 60/120k as follows: * replace timing belt and accessory belts * replace water pump & change water manifold o-rings & gaskets * replace camshaft seals & crankshaft seal * change crank position sensor * valve adjustment * change valve...

    Why did Ford change to 5W30 on the 2011?

    It was recommended that my 93 run on 5W30. Maybe ford realized they screwed up by recommending 5W20 because 5W20 is thinner oil than 5W30. I would think running 5W20 could cause the engine to run warmer. And I run 5W30 in my 92 now.

    93 Sho No spark

    I'm not a mechanic but I'd say it's the crank sensor. I've had 3 bite the dust on 3 different SHOs.

    Question, would you buy more expensive brake pads for your daily driver if you knew those more expensive pads would last you 3 times longer and brake 3 times as good as the the stock pads? I run Porterfield pads on my daily for this very reason. Porterfield Brakes are ones that recommend that...

    Lemons Texas...

    61 here in August started my Taurus lovin' days in 1988 with my 87 Taurus LX that I had pegged daily. Keep your eyes peeled on the Texas craig's lists there is usually some SHOs on there all the time. Best part about a Texas car is no rust, unless the car is from the coast. It finished 9th...

    My take on the new Taurus

    just my opinion The new SHO moniker should have been on a Fusion. The Fusion is more like the original size of the SHO, not a heavy pig, and could have a mtx version fairly cheap for ford. I'm not the only one in fordbastards that saw the pvt showing of the car at the 2009 Dallas AutoShow that...

    Yea I'm the ass of the thread now after Don edited his original 1st post to exclude the part about larry telling him from the jump he was going to be racing SR-72 in some "special" racing events in Texas. Nice editing btw.

    Really? That's hilarious. My birth date is 8/13/1949 so I guess that makes you 90 something. I bought my 1st SHO in 94 it was a 93atx that I put 185k on before it became a parts car because if the lousy transmission ford put in those cars. Before that I drove a Taurus LX I drove for 8 years and...

    Lemons Texas...

    There were 6 SHO teams there at the race only one team (SR-72) had paid professional drivers in the car. Just me mind you but I don't get how prideful you are of these cheaters. You knew all along they were going to drive this car in Lemon's races where the car was supposedly to be a $500. car...

    And it was still beat by a stock SHO that still has AC so it can be driven to and from the track. LMAO

    You mean the ringer? The one that bribed the judges to pass tech, that one? The one with the racing cam, that one? The one with 3.2 motor & ported heads SI race valves ported intake runners, that one? RINGERS!!!! Well that one got beat by RRRR all day long.
