Summary: Short drive to work the other day and every time I touch the brakes my cd player and A/F gauge restarts. That night I go to leave and nothing works. No power locks, lights, ignition, etc. Check the battery and the neg connector is completely loose. I tighten everything and try to jump...

I think I have found my leak, but how in the world do you get to it? I have removed the alternator and can almost get my hand on the top portion but am having trouble reaching the bottom section. I don't won't to break any sensors down there. Do most people remove the whole manifold to get to...

My 1990 turbo targa has been sitting in my yard for about a year since I got hit by a kid running the red light.. This was my dd, not my project. I have an 87t that is my baby. This thread is to get yall's opinions on should I sell it, should I sell my current dd (01 mustang gt) and fix it, or...

I have had porterfield slotted rotors with r4-s pads for 5 years with no problems. today, I had my rotors turned, and I went to put on new r4-s pads and they are too thick. All four pads look to be the same thickness, but I cant even get the caliper over the rotor with the outside pad in. I have...

I believe my starter has gone bad, but wanted to see what you all thought. The problem is sometimes the car will not crank after driving it awhile (hot). First I thought it was the battery but jumping doesnt help. So Ive checked the connections. The first time after playing with the connections...

Hey guys, I have a 1990 supra turbo and the ac isn't working. The car is at the shop but there are some issues fixing it. First, we are pretty sure the climate control unit is toast. it tested bad, and I put it in my 87 turbo and it did not work. To clarify, there is no difference between 87-92...

I just put new rear rotors on and brake pads. The clips were still good so I reused them. How important is the thin metal plate that goes on the back side of each pad and between the caliper. It doesnt really clip on, it just sits there I think. Does it help put even pressure on the pads or...

Can a tail light failure box from a 90 turbo be used in a 87 turbo without it burning it up? I've narrowed it down to the box in my 87, but I would like to check it with a good box just to be sure. I have a 90 but I do not want to use it if it will burn it up obviously. Thanks, John

I want to install the lm-1 permanently so I don't have to use the cig lighter. I also have the maft pro so I'd rather not have that hooked up with something going to the cig. Do I cut off the cig lighter adapter, and run the red wire to 12v and the black to ground? If this is right, I still need...

I have dual flex a lite fans wired with the control box. The other day the wiring that goes from the battery to the control port B caught on fire. I have it wired with 12 gauge wiring running through a 30fuse and then into the control box. When I opened the hood the fuse was not blown, but the...

What would cause the power door locks to unlock themselves? I know not having the ignition in the off position or having the key in the ignition, but what else? The problem started today, whenever I press the power locks, the car will lock then unlock. same goes when I use my keyless remote, the...
