OK, had a CE light for a bit, but felt nothing. My g/f said it was stumbling and losing power when she drove it Saturday. I noticed nothing until driving home Monday, when it was stumbly and missing. Died pulling up to a light. Got her home, misfiring all the way. Noticed the CE light...

I am *so* farking sick of hurricanes. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v396/MGDavisOrlando/Jeanne.jpg I live somewhere in the gray dot right next to an H. Here goes another week without power!

...pretty hard because the roads here are either a) crap, lor b) torn up for construction. Getting a shudder in the steering wheel. Well, it was barely there with the stock wheels, but the stiffer sidewall is exacerbating it. Poly bushings? Other ideas? Regrads, Michael

Was thinking that I would just replace the stock speakers, but eBay was an evil temptress... Have an Infinity Reference 6 ch (80x4, 150x2 @2) amp and a pair of 10" Infinity Reference subs enroute. Any suggestions for a sub box that works well for a Mark, and interior speakers? What size...

I remember seeing something that keeps your cell phone and other stuff in place on your dash. Can't remember what it was called though, and my searches here are coming up blank. Anybody remember what I'm talking about? Got a link? Regards, Michael

Been checking that famous auction site, and I see several Ford factory head units that play MP3s & CDR's and, obviously, fit our dashes. Not looking for big sound anyway, but would like mp3 functionality. My factory 10-stack handles CDR's, but not MP3. Is the Mach unit a direct plug and play...

OK, so all my fun money is going into performance mods for now. May do a whole system down the road someday. But for now, I'd like to swap in some unblown speakers. Reading the very helpful (though equally as bleak) advice on a speaker-only upgrade, I was wondering if I could cadge a set of...

Figured one of you California guys could use this. Took it off today when my custom exhaust went on. Make me a reasonable offer. I figure shipping to the left coast would go about $25. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v396/MGDavisOrlando/IM000697.jpg

Got the Magnaflow delivered yesterday despite UPS's best efforts to lose it. Spent this a.m. finding a custom (read: willing to play fast and loose with the cat) exhaust shop. Had the good-old-boy that owns the place cut it all off from the bottom of the downtubes back, and weld in the...

I've been known to turn the volume up a bit high in my car. Of course the super-fragile JBL speakers are giving up the ghost. Any recommendations for upgraded speakers? The stock amp puts out plenty of power for me. I'm just sick of the buzzy, blown rear speakers. What size are the door and...

If you can hook me up with a '97 (only that year will work) Ebony driver's door panel that's in anywhere close to minty shape, I'll pay you a $25 bounty. Call your local salvage yards, steal one off the guy across town's car (kidding!), whatever. No, pointing me to an ebay auction doesn't...

So I was bidding on a pair of door panels (only needed driver's side)on that famous auction site, and missed out on the final snipe because I fell asleep while reading a book. "It's OK," I thought, "There's another one going on that I'll scoop up with Buy It Now." Of course, the second bidder...

Beautiful car, Mike. I'm a sucker for pearlescent white on any luxury car. It's the only color that whitewalls go with that well. The ivory interior and chrome wheels complement it well, too. Ever think about a slight sensor lowering, about 1 inch front and rear? Keeps the appearance stock...

This is all stuff I have already ordered, still debating on model or brand, parts already here, or done. Opinions? Anything else I can do with, say, another $500-1K, focused on further perfomance mods? I'm thinking maybe a 100-125 shot, but I'm leery of NOS in general, preferring something...
