Bought Ford Racing Boss302 brake lines and 'baffled' oil pan for my 2011 GT 5.0 manual with Brembo package. Dealership, when trying to install (after taking apart car), says that the part numbers of the parts that I already have on my car are the exact same as what I am trying to have them...

Hey guys, i recently just bought a great 99 cobra, and the previous owner installed breathers on it. My question is how do i get the yellowish stain off the valve covers? Its really been annoying me, and basic cleaners wont get it off. Also, what are the pros and cons to breathers? Thanks a...

hello, I have a 2000 V6 Mustang and my oil pressure gauge doesn't seem to be working, When i start the car the gauge stays at zero and then after about 3 to 5 minutes it will shoot up to normal. It will then fluctuate between zero and normal randomly as I drive. I'm sure I have oil pressure...

Hows it going, been on other sites before, but this is definitely the most informing one. First question, I have an oil leak in a 1990 Mustang GT with a 5.0 in it. Is it possible that this leak is coming from near the cam shaft, this is where I am finding the majority of the oil.

I have a 2000 Mustang GT 5-spd with about 152,000 miles. Just yesterday I noticed the oil pressure gauge was fluctuating when at idle or my clutch was in. It would go from normal (little more than half way) back to 0. Once I start to drive it goes back up to normal. I noticed this only happens...

I am having trouble with my 147XXX mile '97 Cobra. :mesad: First the engine hesitated on the highway in a similar way to running out of gas. Then it cut off during a slightly hard brake once, while clutched, and when that happened I noticed the oil gauge pegging on the low end, and then going...

Okay I have worked on alot of jeeps and never seen one of these makes me feel like a moron. I thot it was my diff that was leaking but its comeing from the center of this. How do I stop it? the reason I noticed is the bolts to the driveshaft came loose. I put them back on as tight as I could.

I was coming up a mountain in my 2000 GT. My engine started to chatter a little bit then I noticed it was smoking through the exhaust. I pulled over and checked the oil and it was a little low so I bought oil and added it to it. I then drove about 5 miles and got home. I noticed that the whole...
