My '65 A-code 4-speed fastback has an 8-inch diff. If I decode the VIN
and warranty plate, it comes back as an 8-inch open diff with 3.00:1
gearing. With a 42 year-old car, however, it`s anyone's guess as to
what's really in there now. Presently, the engine and tranny are out

anyone know how i can find out what color i need, to repaint a wheel
that got the paint scraped off the edge while installing a new tire on
the rim?
they used plastic rim guards, but it must have slipped.

Just installed a new Edelbrock Performer 289 intake and Edelbrock 500
cfm carb with electronic choke and can't get it started for the life
of me!  When I put the distributor back in it was right at the mark of
where I removed it, couldn't get it started.  So I pulled it again and

Is this true, Harry?

No, not Google Groups (or what used to be DejaVu), but Google web search.
I find it truly amazing how many websites mirror this newsgroup as
"content," or disguised as their own internal discussion group. All over the
globe, too.

I have a 1999 Mustang GT convertible.  Can 17x10.5 wheels fit front and rear
275/40-17 tires. Thanks!

I'm putting the final touches on a 351C this weekend and plan to drop it in
the ol' mach some evening this week.
It originally had the "X" style 4 blade fan (on the water pump).
I found a 5 blade flex-fan and plan to put that on instead.

Thanks to those who replied but I don't think I related the problem
effectively. The problem is how do I get the ignition cylinder out of
the steering column if I don't have the key?
Thanks again,

Howdy Mustang fans,
My name is jamie and I live in Texas. I would like to thank you for
letting me post here. I am a Volvo user group member, but my neighbor
has a 1998 Mustang he's trying to find a part for.

All things considered, I'm totally satisfied and happy with my 2004 GT

I have a 2002 Ford Ranger - 4.0 L with 67,000 miles.  Keep getting the
codes P0170 and P0174 fuel banks too lean.  However, engine does not
run rough at all, and no hard starts.  Thought that it may be clogged
fuel injectors, but that was not the problem.  Now thinking that it

Recently my 84 5.0 mustang has been pouring white smoke out of the
tail pipes.  It starts and runs fine but it started smoking recently.
I noticed the smoke after driving it a couple days after I filled it
with premium gas.  Also I think my car burns oil. I use 5W30 motor oil

Yeah, I know... BONEHEAD!!! But anyway, I lost the keys to my '70
convertible. I have ordered a new lock set including ignition and
doors (keyed alike) and trunk. The doors to the car were unlocked and
I can get through the trunk by removing the back seat. The problem is

I've got a generic automotive temperature meter made by ANC, and I'm
wondering how to hook it up.
I suppose this general non-Mustang related question might be better for
another group, but I follow this group occasionally and know there are
