    Take apart 95 TBird Interior

    Here's what I did for my amp... Power cable up the driver side, signal cable up the passenger side. Both run under the door sills until the end of the door..then run under a little carpet, under a plastic runner piece, then tucked down beside the rear seat and finally behind it. The seat and...

    1997 tbird misses throughout throttle range

    Hmmm... Yeah I would have to agree w/Birdman, two muffs up front probably isn't a good idea. How about finding one with dual ins/outs, and put that either where the third cat was or down near where the stock resonator is (in front of the differential housing aka pumpkin). Just a thought...there...

    exhuast debate

    Ok... To begin, you will likely have an advantage either way if you cut off that useless 3rd converter. I know of people who run these cars with hollowed out converters and pass emissions (in MA anyway). If you like the way a Mustang sounds with Flowmasters, here is one solution. Cut off the 3rd...

    1997 tbird misses throughout throttle range

    Sounds like a good time... Have you replaced the Mass Airflow Sensor? It's the round metal cylinder with a plastic piece on top, right behind the airbox. This sensor is fairly likely to be faulty. My little brother has a '96 Cougar and had the same problem, even after changing the plugs, wires...

    Harsh 1-2 Shift

    Rolling-Thunder- Thanks for getting back to me. I have a few more questions, which I hope you can answer for me. First, is there any indicator as to when these parts do fail? As I am a college student, and with winter approaching, chances are I won't be able to service this immediately. Second...

    Harsh 1-2 Shift

    OK... So judging from my last post about noisy fuel injectors, there are certain potential gripes about this car that are simply the "nature of the beast." On to my next question: My '94 4.6 LX w/78,000 miles has a tight 1-2 shift. Tight is good, I know, but it's definitely much tighter than...

    High Mileage Birds (how reliable?)

    On a quick note, I would also like to mention the fact that mildly modified 4.6 engines and factory spec 4R-70W transmissions have been delivered as part of the Interceptor Crown Vic package (police cars) for years. Where I am from, the police run their cars up to 300,000 miles usually without...

    Torque Rating

    From one source that I usually use to look up ratings, torque for the N/A V6 is 215 lb. ft. Find it at http://auto.consumerguide.com/auto/used/reviews/full/index.cfm/id/2041 -DG-

    Noisy Injectors?

    First, thanks to all who responded. I want to clarify that I don't make this statement as a complaint; other than a slight lope in the idle when the engine is hot, she runs beautifully. It's probable that newer MN-12's (later than my '94) were equipped with different injectors that were...

    Noisy Injectors?

    Hey All- This isn't so much a question as it is a survey: If your Bird came with the 4.6, are the fuel injectors noisy? This is one of the first things I noticed when I bought the car and was looking it over...the fuel injectors are noticeably loud. It doesn't seem to be an unhealthy sound by...

    Exhaust Resonator

    Just to let everyone know...I removed the exhaust resonator and welded a piece of pipe in it's place. There was almost no difference in the sound, with the exception of an increase in that "glug-glug" V8 exhaust sound and a slightly deeper note at idle. On that note, if it's not falling off...

    where to run powerwires for amp through firewall???

    There is a fairly large piece of unobstructed sheet metal directly to the right of the brake booster. If you can get your hands on a firewall grommet, this is a great place to drill a hole, as the battery is on the drivers side of the car. There is a Tweeter car audio store near here that gave...

    Exhaust Resonator

    Has anyone here removed the exhaust resonator? The studs that hold mine on are rusting away...I have already replaced one of them with a makeshift nut/bolt assembly I had laying around. Just wondering if it'll make the car much louder...I would like to try to avoid a lot of interior resonance...
