well, that figures If anything weird can happen, it's gonna happen to me :rolleyes: I went ahead and knocked a little off the corner with a side-grinder, dressed it with a dremel, and she mounted right up snug and square. Putting out 13.62v at idle right now and everything seems to be fine...

Can I just grind this "tip" down a little? It's on the front intake tube: I bought a reman'd alternator from an auto electric shop in Columbus GA, about 1.5 hrs from home, and it touches that "tip" right here: That keeps the bottom bolts from snugging up correctly, and also the top left...

Thanks for that... I'm pretty well convinced it was one too many WOTs that killed the alt. (but I LOVE IT!)... nice to know the tach ~may~ be fixable... will get on that once the alt. is done.

A belated "thanks" for the responses guys. Been a busy week for me, and had to go out of town this weekend, so I haven't done anything else to fix my alt. issue. In the OP, I was just "fishin' "... to see if there was a known connection between the two problems that I couldn't find using the...

[my best Elvis voice] Thankya... Thankya vury much... [/Elvis voice] :D

Could charging system and tach problems somehow be related? :confused: About a month ago, I was driving my son to town and he says Hey, your tachs not working. It was "stuck" at just below 2k rpm. We get to the school parking lot. I put it in Park and revved it a few times. The needle would...

I'm doing mine just backwards from that. Cat delete and dual-x's first, let it breathe a little better... then decide if I want a little more rumble (and decide between magnaflow or borla) or maybe just try straight pipes for a while.

Is that the thingee that makes it continuum to go forward at different speeds? (well, sometimes backwards too)? Like your new sig collage, that G2 on bottom right is da shizzle, my daughter loves the color... flag tag is icing on the cake.

Yeah, first thing I noticed too... I just don't understand how people can not "get it"... dam car looks like it's going backwards. The Ford Museum "considered it", but found out the dumbazz didn't even know how to put the wheels on correctly and said "screw that"... :p "Considered this car"...

'Course not, mine's stock too. ;) My only problem with stock is... WOT STINKS!... Plus, I feel like the car just can't breathe... that third cat has got to go, soon as I can afford it. I bumped into our local mechanic last weekend at a party. He and his Dad run the only local shop...

I have a cheap OBD-II bluetooth adapter from Amazon (~$28 IIRC) and the paid (~$5) version of Torque on an original Droid 1 phone... The combo works fine on my wife's '99 Toyota Avalon, my '03 Chevy Astro van, and my son's '00 Ranger XLT. Sometimes, Torque will put a grayed-out message at...

That may be, but it takes a real douchebag to call a long-time, respected member of a forum a piece of :q:q:q:q in public, in the first place; without having taken his problem to Geno, in private, first. THIS is the post I agree with most: And I say DON'T "clean this thread up"... leave it on...

White 98 LSC garage kept low miles The Mark I dream of... ('cept in me dreams, mine is sensor lowered, has chrome 10-spokes and no 3rd cat... that is all)

If you ever see a bra on my Mark, you'll know two things for sure: 1) I'm dead 2) My wife didn't bury me in the Mark like I told her to! :D

You got that right brudda... I'm gonna show a picture of that to my Mark, give it something to aspire to. :D

On so many levels! :D My 94 Mark trans. had the 'infamous shudder' at highway speeds in OD, when I first got it last March. After everyone here said to, I changed trans. fluid to Mercon V w/ new filter and gasket... no shudder for over a year now. (and I have been known to drive it hard...

thaywood, Sorry it took me so long. First I had to get a round tuit, then find the last photos I took (last count I have 14,488 photos on this computer, turns out it was in 2009), then make a Photobucket account and figure that out, but finally... here they are! That's my '73 C-10 stepside in...

Comes with the territory around here, boyz being boyz and all... :) Don't take it personal, just roll with it. BTW, I did not know the info you posted, so that'll help me someday I'm sure.

It's a truck, not a car, but still have it since sometime before 1980, so... over 32 years: 1962 Ford F-100 Custom Cab Uni-body w/ a 292 c.i. V8, 3-on-the-tree Traded a ragged-out '62 Triumph TR4-A for it, and haven't regretted it since. It has alum. Western mag wheels, and I got it...

I bought a pair of the Xantrex (or something like that) off fleabay, and didn't like them. Ordered the 5k, but they are still too blue for my taste, and were no brighter than the factory halogens (no relay). Also got the error message sometimes, but not all the time, so just took them out and...
