So I have to change the oil pan gasket on my 1966 6cyl. It has probably never been changed before...any tips?? Do they get stuck on? If/so, how'd you get your's off? Any gasket tips? etc. Thank you for any insight you be able to offer.

Greetings. I installed the Ford Racing X-Pipe onto my 2014 Mustang GT and have a small exhaust leak at both sides of the X-Pipe where the "ball and cup" attach to the stock cat downpipes. This is a known issue for this particular X-Pipe. Does anyone know of a gasket, sealant, or exhaust tape...

I have noticed an oil leak from somewhere above the oil filter. From looking around at various forums, it seems like a common problem would be for the oil filter adapter gasket to go bad in 4.6 L engine. But not many people have complained about this in a v6 3.8l engine. Has this happened to...

I have a 2000 Mustang GT and Im losing a lot of coolant. I recently changed my thermostat so I opened it up to make sure everything is clean and sealed properly. After trying this twice it is still leaking! Its not leaking on the ground but there is a big pool on the block under my alternator...

Hello, I have a 1995 V6. The coolant in my car slowly disappears. It is not leaking on the pavement, its not in the oil, and it does not look like its coming out of the exhaust but I suspect it is. I did a pressure test (used a vacuum and gauge on the radiator) and the cooling system held...

I purchased a used JBA o/r hpipe for cheap but it doesn't have the hardware. I called JBA but they keep sending me in circles to different people. Does anyone here know the nut/bolt specs? also, do you think some cut-it-yourself gasket with some dabs of liquid gasket will work ok?

So I changed out my plugs lately and I noticed that 1 or 2 of my front end plugs had become gunked up with oil. The dealership where i get the $10 oil change deal has mentioned a leaky gasket before, but I feel like i am misfiring on a cylinder when trying to accelerate. Is there any connection...

will having one bolt missing from the doughnut gasket make it sound like a ticking while driving?

Okay so for some background, I was replacing the header gasket because the original had finally blew out. While getting the headers off I removed each of the spark plugs, that were in the way. (5,6,7) I marked each one to make sure I wouldn't confuse them. Number 7 gave me a little trouble, but...

SO i just put an old four barrel intake of of a early 80's carburated small block and just got it all together. I added coolant and then fired it up and it started spewing water from where the intake meets the head, close to the water neck. what are the odds that i pinched or miasaligned a...

Hi all, long time lurker here and other Mustang sites. I have had the motor out of my car this winter doing some cleaning, painting and (hopefully) stopping some annoying leaks. I have a couple of questions regarding the re-installation of the intake manifold.... What is the preferred method...

So i finally got around to seafoaming my 99 mustang today and when i was filling the vacuum line with the stuff, i noticed it was smoking alot around the front of the engine on the side with the oil fill (left side) i coun't exactly see where it was coming from, somewhere below the header i...

Here's the thread that will expose my ignorance. The term RTV is thrown around like crazy by everybody in the auto industry, but I hate to admit, I don't know what the h--l the differences between the kagillion types are. What is the diff. between "gasket maker" and "gasket dressing?" Is...

I'm replacing my timing cover. My problem is this: I've got a one piece, rubber oil pan gasket. I don't like the idea of cutting the gasket flush with the block and then replacing the "ears" with cork gasket material (comes in Felpro timing cover gasket set. I don't even understand how this...

I need to replace the seals on my taillights of my 70 grande, but I'm not really sure where to find the seals.

Anybody who's replaced their front timing cover and had to do the "cut and paste" with the oil pan gasket corners?? How'd that work out? I've read the TSB about 5 liters built from 11-1994 on had revised gaskets and assembly procedures as opposed to the earlier engines. My oil pan to block...

I just recently bought a 2000 Mustang GT with 142,000 miles on it. First off, when I first start it up, some white smoke exits the exhaust when under slightly heavy acceleration. After it warms up, it doesn't smoke anymore. Secondly, there looks to be nothing wrong with the oil, no white crap...
