    Failed Gauges and Battery

    I think the gauge activation is controlled by the gauge module. nota4re has a some good write-ups about why this happens. My 2014 Mustang GT500 does the same thing. If the battery is low (a good battery) certain systems, like the touch screen and related systems, will not work. They will not...

    Looking for power steering hose 05/06 GT

    Yes, it is a petroleum (fuel and oil) based product. Synthetic has become a loosely used and undefined term that is used by manufacturers for marketing. True synthetics were used and I believe developed for use in the aircraft industry in turbine engines. Very high temperature use and...

    Looking for power steering hose 05/06 GT

    I did not know OEM called for a 0.030 tight fit. I have always noticed that OEM hose to fitting is tight. This allows spring clamps to work well. Using a 5/8 hose on a 5/8 fitting, spring clamps would always leak, and screw clamps would bunch up. Just as you mentioned above. Good to know...

    GT Guy (Rich Brooks) Still in Business ?

The battery negative cable can touch any chassis metal with no problem, if it has a good connection to ground/chassis. I attended a 530 car Mustang...

    Or, the battery is too tall. I had purchased and installed a new battery that should have fit, but the terminals contacted the plastic tray. I ended up installing the same number optima battery and it fit. Optima Red Top Group 25

    Clutch issues

    Brake fluid is highly suseptible to absorbing moisture. This can significantly lower the boiling point and cause your problem. Especially probable if you have not had the problem in the past and now mysteriously are having the problem under the same conditions. Flush the old with new by...

    05/06 street driven brake pads...

    I will add to this. Take a DA sander to your rotors. Rotate the rotor while you use the DA. Makes a very nice new surface.
