Chloe is a real sweetie! She said "Please tell Mr Rick thank you for his kind words :)"

@@306foxbody1 🥰

Thanks so much Rick! It's amazing how much nicer it is to drive the car without that annoying sound! Lol Hope you are having a great summer too!!!

Thanks so much!!! So glad we have it in our DNA to fix things...Im so glad the noise is gone! Hope you are having an awesome summer my friend!👍👍

@@306foxbody1 you are a awesome guy to learn from

@@bonezshakergarage , I'm always learning...I like how we can help each other out... Thank goodness TH-cam allows us to do that!

Thanks so much brother!!! I really hope this video helps other guys out too! 👍👍

@@306foxbody1 I am absolutely certain it will Brother!

Hi Donald, yes it was driving me nuts to hear it whistle all the time...Im so glad its gone.. Glad to see your car coming together!

@@306foxbody1 thanks, yeah its running just working on trying to get the factory tach working and now my gas gauge not working so just taking care od some wiring issues.

I'm suprised Chloe wasn't barking at the whistle sound! I bet you miss your little pal...We always take Charlie and Chloe for car rides...they are so precious...

@@306foxbody1 agreed!

Hi, at the time I wasn't totally sure if the ecu could effect it or not...so we thought it was worth a shot...but thank you for bringing this to our attention...that's definitely very helpful information! Thank you!👍👍

Hi, this car has never had any cooling issues, and it's funny you mentioned this because my 95 Mustang's factory temperature gauge reads high all the time (it has a new aluminum rad, water pump, thermostat, etc). When I had the car tuned, I asked about the temperature, and they said the readout to to the laptop showed a normal temperature reading. And on my 95, the temperature reads high, the oil pressure reads high (it has a high volume oil pump as well), and the voltmeter appears to read a touch low... So far, it's been one of life's little mysteries! For me, it seems like SN95s have possible minor gauge issues... Thanks for watching!👍👍

@@306foxbody1maybe a new temp sensor then? Because mine always looks the how yours looks in the video that’s the reason it stood out to me

@@ChuckVBeats I think I tried a new temp sensor in mine...It can't hurt to try it...and it's cheap to do. Because my other gauges seem to be a bit out, I'm leaning towards a possible bad ground... I'm definitely going to be asking other sn95 owners how their gauges read. My 96 mustang that I've owned for 20 years had gauges that I felt read spot on... I'm definitely going to research this more over time...

Lol!!!!!!!!

Hi, I totally hope this helps you out! In my latest video, it finally happened to me in my 86. And about two years ago, it also happened to a 92 Gt I had. Initially thought it was tfi, but turned out it was the p.i.p. sensor. Let me know if you where able to solve your problem!👍👍

I had the same problem with my ‘87. I put a new MSD distributor and the problem is gone. I swapped out the TFI module with a new one during diagnosing the problem, but the problem persisted. I decided to replace the whole distributor because I suspected the PIP module and the distributor showed play in the shaft. Great video.

Hi If my car was a race car, I could see a person possibly trying a blow through carb system, but compressed air unfortunately creates heat no matter which way you look it, and I think my air intake temps are in a zone that most guys have to deal with. Methanol injection would likely be the quickest, cheapest way to bring down the temperatures, and have the extra benefit of an higher octane effect from the Methanol as well. But the air to water system that I would like in the car, (hopefully, lol) should work really well. Summer has put the project on a bit of a backburner, but I really appreciate your comment, as it always gives a guy something to think about, and another perspective! 👍👍 Hope you're having a great summer!!

@@306foxbody1 lol....yes I too understand "LUSSAC's Law" Have you ever recorded IAT's in the manifold? I just watched a guy make 26lbs of boost and IAT REMAINED LESS THAN AMBIENT. I spent a whole night reading articles and waiting to make a phone call to confirm what I saw happening. The fuel(E85, 91, 93, C16, etc) has a cooling effect as it vaporizes and mixes with the air. The same can be expected with EFI throttle bodies that introduce the fuel at the intake manifold flange. Port injection can't do this BECAUSE there is not enough time for the air and fuel to mix. Look into maybe....maybe not. Up to you, but I've been against hot pressurized air since 2008. I'm looking after 16 years I'm changing my views with the data I've seen.

​@arturozarate1752 yes, the dry intake is definitely not helping as apposed to introducing the fuel earlier...yeah the fuel would have no choice but to cool everything down. I never really thought of what you mentioned earlier with the benefits of the blow through carb system...but this totally gives me more to think about...that's what I totally love about hearing comments... Also, our local fuels are holding things back a bit, as we basically have 91 octane at best. One day (be it next yr or the year after), things will hopefully come together . Your information definitely gives me more to think about!!👍 This is definitely a huge learning curve for me! Lol Cheers!👍👍

@@306foxbody1 just trying to help.

Hi, I've since sold the car, but the landscaping fabric seemed to hold up well. Using it seemed to help hold together the original insulation, and it looked decent when I was done. I would definitely do it again. Thanks for watching!!!👍👍

I guess I've lucked out with fairly good luck over the last 31 years...however every make and model has their issues, some definitely more or less than others. Thanks for watching!👍👍

Hey there! After owning this car and enjoying it for over 31 years...I would never leave it abandoned...Lol. You are absolutely right...too many new cars are too difficult to diagnose and get running on the side of the road. It's sad to think how many people don't look after their vehicles... Thanks for watching! I really enjoyed hearing your comment!! Cheers👍👍

@@306foxbody1 I'm subscribing

Lol! ... they all have their problems...

Hi, I guess I've been quite fortunate to not have tfi issues... We always seem to blame the tfi, as it's not like they haven't failed...but for this time, and on my buddy's 86 Gt, it's been the profile ignition pickup. Thanks for watching!!👍👍

Hey Rick!!! Hope all is well, and hope you are having an awesome summer👍... I guess it never left me stranded...but damn close!! Take care!!👍👍

Hi, totally agree, might be a nice little upgrade... I might have to dig a bit deeper on this one...pull out my schematics. Thanks for watching!!👍👍

Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write such a detailed comment! The factory obviously put all the ground connections in the many locations for a reason, and who knows how many where deleted or not serviced over the years on many cars. You've definitely given me some food for though to check my grounds and other connections. I believe I do have heavy enough wire to the starter, and from the battery, but it's definitely a good idea to go over everything again...as it could save me from calling a tow truck too!!👍👍 Thanks again!!

There are a few that didn't rust...only because with the amount of snow we get, some of us didn't winter drive them! Lol But totally agree, many are too far gone to repair...

It's something how we can remember some of these issues from 2-3 decades ago. It was always so rewarding when we figured them out! Thanks for watching!!👍👍

Lol...I had to read your comment a couple times...lol very good point...that Msd box is about 23 yrs old... its done well so far👍🤞

@@306foxbody1 50tussin has had a few different issues with them

Lol!!! I bet it runs awesome!!!

Thanks for watching!! I'm glad it ended up being an easy fix!👍

Zero times! Not even a near miss...lol Good observation though!👍

That's awesome!! These cars have such amazing reliability...just one of the many reasons I like them so much. Thanks for watching!!👍👍

@@306foxbody1 I can attest to that... 372k on unmolested 302. Only thing I changed was the timing chain since I replaced the front seal might as well while I'm in there.

Thanks so much! Hope you and your family have an awesome summer as well. I really like how we can still fix some of these cars with basic tools on the side of the road. Lol

Hi, I've heard of a few guys requiring a coil over the years, but so far it's never happened to me. At least it's an easy repair. Thanks for watching!!👍👍

Hi, thanks for watching! I wonder if a guy could use a SN95/T-bird distributor as well, along with the wiring to the tfi. I'm actually surprised I was able to go this long without an ignition problem..lol! Thanks again!👍👍

@@306foxbody1 It may be possible. I know the t-bird of that era had the 5.0 pushrod 302 engine as an option and many similar components. I never messed with the s/n 95 stuff as the engine block was a completely different beast. I'm pretty sure mine was a t-bird module I picked up at a junk yard. I think I gutted the original dead module leaving the housing with the plug still on the distributor then just wired the new module from the fender wall to the old plug with some custom connectors. I drove mine for like 10 years like that. cheers.

Appreciate the info brother, I did not know that. And I've owned 5 mustang Foxbody's, lol.👈💯

Hey OG!!! I like how we can repair our cars on the side of the road in most cases...I like the simplicity of our cars! Thanks for watching brother!!👍👍

One of my buddy's has a Draggy that he uses in his modified BMW M2...it works pretty awesome. I'm going to have to try it in the 86...see how far out the old G-tech is... Now to find some extra traction...lol!

Hi, In 2005 I had it in Saskatoon Saskatchewan 's SIR Dragstrip, a d with a fresh 351w, a Procharger P600B pushing 8-1/2 psi, and no official tuning, it ran 11.24 at over 124mph. In 2015, it has gone 6.99 @99mph in the 1/8th mile at a local airport dragrace event. I hope to get it back to a drag strip in the next couple years. Thanks for watching!👍👍

6.99@99 is a 10.90 in the 1/4, not bad at all for an unprepped surface. 124 mph is good for 10.60-10.70s with a 1.4x 60’…. But you know how that goes… what they “should do” is usually harder to obtain then what they “actually do”. Lol. Keep up the good work. New sub here.

Hello! I don't really have an official "kit" for each of my cars...but it's going to happen pretty quick... Also, a decent sized fire extinguisher isn't a bad idea as well. After seeing the burnt S351 that Fox Junk (TH-cam channel) is working on...I'm going to keep that in the car as well. I have a small one in the 86, but it's likely 25 yrs old. Thanks for watching!👍👍

what did the belt tensioner do to you?????

​@berardoferrari maybe the spring broke in the tensioner? ...or the tensioner pully bearing seized?? Just my best guess...

The pulley on the tensioner literally broke off the bearing holding it to the tensioner arm. The bearing and bolt was still there, the bearing was smooth. The plastic pulley seemed to have melted around the bearing and popped off. I walked a mile to an Autozone, got another tensioner and changed it in a Home Depot parking lot. Lol. The new tensioner also had a plastic pulley, so I installed a billet pulley from UPR to avoid this in the future.

I DROVE MY 87 MUSTANG GT EVERYDAY FOR YEARS AND THE ONLY PROBLEM I EVER HAD WAS A STARTER AND BRAKES

Hey Meredith! I've actually been quite fortunate to not have any major breakdowns on the street over the last 31 years (minus two cracked blocks at the dragstrip! Lol). But yeah, they can all have the same gremlins. Thanks for watching!👍👍

Me too!!! Thanks for watching!!👍👍

Hello, that's a good observation as both cars are assembled in a similar manner. Thanks for watching!!👍👍

Hi, thanks for watching!! Glad it still helped you out!👍👍

Thanks for watching!!!👍👍

Hi, thanks for watching! I didn't buy the gauge new, however I think it was a Summit brand G2939. You could likely make others work quite easily, however this one seemed to work out pretty good. Thanks again!👍👍

Hope the video helped! Thanks for watching!!👍👍

Totally agree with you...I'm always learning (especially from my mistakes! Lol)... A dyno would be nice, that's for sure...a guy could really learn a lot... thanks for watching!
