I would suspect a bad starter solenoid or starter itself...oh and make sure all the cables are nice and clean and make good contact.

Before replacing - there is a reset in the trunk, I forget which side (sold my 85 Fila some years ago). also try banging on the tank with a hammer, I did that once to get out of a snowy parking lot - only worked the once to get the pump going enough to get home. The Windsor V-8 had only 140HP...

Older post but figured I would say Hi and see if I can help... Ah you are not far from Amsterdam right? Anyway issue could be a number of items - really need to get hooked up to a computer to get the trouble codes to start troubleshooting ....as a starting point and cheap to swap are...

Tough call ...check with vendors that have used parts and parts cars like Pat Wilson's, Bob's Bird House...

Found them... Thunderbird HQ stocks indivual brake lines... $20 nice.....

Thanks for the link, I hate to buy a whole kit, all my line are already new, just messed this one line up. I know I have seen a vendor that had pieces....

Ah...I suspect what you have found is the rear axle vent hose. on the pass side of the axle there is a nipple sticking up on top - the hose goes here. This hose lets it vent and to keep dirt from getting in. Might not be a bad idea to change the fluid - I actually have this done for me - to...

Another old post but what the heck...The 3.8 n the bird is soo close to the Mustang, just look for 3.8l sites like 3.8Mustang.com etc. There are induction systems, chips, exhaust, supercharger... all kinds of stuff...only limit is $$$$$$$

Need to post in the 64-66 flairbird forum. Need VIN number and a bunch more data, - what options -besides A/C and power windows, rust body condition, interior shape, milage...etc Price is a tad high without seeing images and so forth I imaged a junker that barely runs.

Anyone know if any of the vendors sells individual stainless brake lines? I just bent the heck out of the line from the Master Cyl to proportioning valve and don’t want to have to buy a whole set. Thanks!

Yeah it is a bit tougher but you can do it, it really is not too bad.
