    Trying to figure out where this connector goes

    I think it is the AC Compressor clutch connector. The male pins for this connector should be on the clutch coil just behind the compressor pulley.

    DIY alco injection

    You can use a windshield washer tank and pump for the alky. Just make sure the tank is below the nozzle so the liquid doesn't syphon. You don't need a fine nozzle as the carb venturi does a good job atomizing the liquid. I used this setup on a 82 Mustang 4 cyl. turbo which used a draw through...

    Homemade Cold Air Intake Ideas

    I used a different approach to isolate the filter from the engine compartment. I installed a 9" K&N in the area where the charcoal canister was located and separated this area from the remainder of the engine compartment by a sheet metal divider with a cutout for the air pipe to pass through...

    please help.....(boost related problem)

    Since you only have the passenger side air bag, make sure your fan speed switch is in low. Remember, you can stop even the most severe wheelspin by shifting into neutral.

    Dumb Power Plate Question:

    The plate will only go on one way. I noticed in your sig that you have a Jackson plenum. I don't know if the power plate you have is compatable with that plenum. Might check with Jason.

    Gas Tank???

    I bought one from Auto Zone 2 years ago. It is part specific for the Turbo Regal. No pickup problems with the "Pie Pan" baffle. Ran mine down to less than a quart when installing the Walbro and it still picked up ok. my .02

    Vac Leak Question, (Might be thinking to hard on this one)

    If you think it is an external vacuum leak, start by removing and plugging the port of each vacuum line at the plenium. If you get one that gives higher vacuum when plugged, trace that one down. The PCV vaccuum line is the only one that should give a higher vacuum when plugged. my .02

    Switch from regular to synthetic oil???

    I think synthetic oils are better for turbo engines for one reason. The synthetic does not "coke" as quickly when exposed to high temperatures. Can you say "exhaust side bearing on the turbo". This coke deposit builds up on the housing and oil passage over time and reduces the flow of oil to...

    toulene question

    Xylene is good stuff. About $35 for 5 gal. at the local Sherwin Williams. I pour in 5 gal., 2oz. marvel mystery oil and top off the tank with 93 octane. It doesn,t like cold starts but other than that it causes no driveability problems. With straight 93, I get 1-3 degrees knock retard at 12 PSI...

    Help with installing temp gauge

    The temp sender needs to be in an area where there is water flow across the sensor. Installing in a tee like a pressure guage will give low readings. The only other good place to mount the sensor is to remove the block drain plug on the drivers side and replace it with the sensor. It is accessed...

    Alky on a Carbed Engine?

    I saw this thread and will relate my experiences with running alky/water injection. I had a 82 4cyl. Mustang back before the GN. It was a carb motor pulling through the carb. I ran a simple injection system using a winshield washer pump and reservoir. The best mix for me was about 60% methanol...

    Directscan question/help

    The speed trap used to be from 60' in front to 60' after the 1/4 mile light. If you let off as soon as you cross the light your DS reading will be higher than the speed trap since you quit accelerating 1/2 way through the trap. It will not be practical with slicks, but the best way I have found...

    Clunking sound

    Do you have Positraction? If so, that may be where your clunk is coming from. Mine sometimes does it if it has set for a few days.
