    ...but starts good, seem to run normal, gets around 27.5 mpg on last Fall's gas. Drove it 30mi with light on. Tech at Advance Auto said the code indicates an engine timing problem. Valves aren't hitting pistons, that I can tell. Maybe ignition timing or bad sensor?? Where is the sensor that...

    Hi, all. Last winter, I noticed that I wasn't getting sufficient cabin heat in my 2007 Mustang V6 4.0L. In previous years, the heat kicked a**. Toasted you right up. I've been trying to approach this systematically from a number of avenues. So far, this is what I've done (to no avail)...

    Hi all Hope someone can help. For the last couple of weeks I've been hearing squeaking sound from the engine, the hotter the engine gets the louder the sound gets. I thought it was the alternator even though it's only 13 months old, but swapped it out with a spare. But it wasn't that, so my...

    I wifes 5.0L 1995 GT cooling system isn't working right. When started up from being cold, the temperature gauge will go almost to the red, and then drop back down to about Nominal. It gets hot enough that it is pushing coolant and steam out in the engine compartment. I think it is coming out...

    I installed a new harmonic balancer and the water pump about a year ago and they seem to be working properly. However, it rained about two or three days ago and since then the harmonic pulley began to squeal. I sprayed some lubricant and it helped, but, if I let the car sit for a while and...

    So I just took my fan belt off and all of my screws that hook the water pump on. After doing that, I noticed there is a metal bracket covering the water pump making it impossible to remove the pump. WTF! The metal is hooked onto a belt pulley to the right of it. Any suggestions? I either have to...

    I am building an old 289 and am looking for a source for a few parts, including the timing cover and water pump. The question I have is whether a 1965 and later type timing cover and cast iron water pump is better than the aluminum cover and aluminum water pump.
