    Stalling On Cold Start After Winter Storage

    I have an Aeroforce Interceptor gauge and just realized that it can read cylinder head temps. Correct me if I'm wrong but if I am getting a reading that means the ect is working properly right?

    Stalling On Cold Start After Winter Storage

    The battery was actually out of the car on a little stand I made to keep it off the cold floor, was doing headers and other things. I have an old X3 handheld, can I use that to adjust the idle? Its concerning that the radiator fan is not coming on which Dino thinks indicates a bad ect sensor...

    Stalling On Cold Start After Winter Storage

    Thank you for the quick reply Dino. The act sensor is located under the intake manifold, correct?

    Stalling On Cold Start After Winter Storage

    Hello everyone. Need help diagnosing a problem. I did indeed do a brief search but didn't find anything that resembled what I am seeing. Took the car out of winter storage and on a cold start, the engine revs to about 1000 then drops to 500. It will eventually stall if I don't apply some...

    Header Gasket Age

    Hello everyone. Found a pair of Ford Performance header gaskets when going through a parts bin in the basement. They were made 7 years ago, never been used. Is it safe to put them on the car if the need arises?

    Not my car but this is supposed to be a 275/40R19.

    Ground Clearance w/Stainless Works LT's

    The current tire is a 275/35R19 which is 26.6" tall.

    Ground Clearance w/Stainless Works LT's

    I like it. Thor does need new tires as these are 7 years old. Current tire is 26.6 so a 275/40R19 will get me another 1.1 in ground clearance.

    Ground Clearance w/Stainless Works LT's

    Hello everyone. Just curious, does anyone else with Stainless Works LT's have them hang low? My cats are 2.75" off the deck. The car is riding on Roush springs and a 26.6" tire all the way around.

    IAT2 and Coolant Temps Are The Same?

    Unbeknownst to me, they (Roush) repurposed the IAT sensor in the MAF for the sensor on the drivers side of the intake manifold. So when I selected IAT in gauge it was actually showing the IAT2 temp, if that makes any sense. If I select IAT2 in the gauge, the number it shows me is the value of...

    IAT2 and Coolant Temps Are The Same?

    Found it. Mine is on the drivers side of the manifold. Still don't understand why the IAT and IAT2 are showing the same temp. The little Bosch pump isn't doing enough to move the coolant that is for sure. Will upgrading to the 2013 GT500 pump make enough of a difference? The difference...

    IAT2 and Coolant Temps Are The Same?

    I forgot to mention that I don’t know where the IAT2 sensor is. The IAT temp stays right around 115-120.

    IAT2 and Coolant Temps Are The Same?

    Thank you the detailed reply. This car blows past 130 on its way to 190 then it pretty much stays there. Very confusing. No bypass on this setup. I have the tiny Bosch, don’t think it puts out more than 4gpm.

    IAT2 and Coolant Temps Are The Same?

    Thanks for the reply. That’s news to me, the Aeroforce instructions say it does. It has the Roush TVS so yes it does have an intercooler.
