    It simply won't start

    Very satisfying for sure. One thing stands out to me and that there is virtually no mention in the troubleshooting protocols I have found with Ford, Haynes or Chilton is to check the connection on the fuel pump drive module. Despite being in the spare tire well, it is ridiculously exposed to...

    It simply won't start

    Update: We have ignition. I removed the rear seat to confirm the fuel pump was running. Check. Retraced my steps including replacing the 10 a PCM fuse. Disconnected and reconnected the fuel pump driver module. Replaced the fuel pump relay and fuse again (made in China). Pushed the reset on the...

    It simply won't start

    Not sure. Gave a listen at the fuel filler with the cap off while my helper did key on. No discernable sound there. Can't tell if I'm hearing the intercooler pump and fuel pump at the same time. I did reset the IFS (with a noticeable "click") and swapped out the fuel pump relay, fuse and MAF...

    It simply won't start

    Simply stated the car suddenly won't start. I drove it Friday afternoon with zero issues, about 40 miles. Jacked it up on stands to do a rebuild on the rear sway bar bushings for about 3 hours yesterday. Dropped the car to test drive it and it won't start. Cranks normally, half tank of gas. I...

    Saleen/Chicane heat exchanger leak

    My bad, should have clarified. Running coolant temps are 180-ish. IAT on the last OBD was 102.

    Saleen/Chicane heat exchanger leak

    Thanks for the reply. Yep we're starting to pull parts off to see if we can find where the leak is coming from. The only way I monitor the IAT is via my OBD. Temps are now and have always hovered around 180. Car was last driven "lively" but not overly hard. Once I got the system filled and...

    Saleen/Chicane heat exchanger leak

    My 2007 GT has unexpectedly developed a coolant leak. I believe it to be coming from the heat exchanger. New Bosch pump installed about a year ago. May or may not have had the supercharger/hoses burped completely. Maybe 3,000 mi driven since install. Car was driven about 25 miles without...

    Water getting into passenger side floor !

    Suit yourself. It literally takes 15 minutes and costs like what...11 bucks? Clean cabin air and an empty cowl.

    Water getting into passenger side floor !

    Change your cabin filter at least once a year. While at it, pull both cowl cover sections and check the very bottom of the cowls for debris as there are two more drain plugs down there. Pro tip: remove and replace the driver side cowl cover first and last and you'll have a much easier time...

    Fuse box fan relay terminal burnt

    As a firm believer in preventative maintenance and after watching the video DieHarder posted above (thank you) and a couple more on Youtube, I took it upon myself to take apart the fuse box and the terminal panel underneath it in order to see what condition the terminals were in, especially...

    wheel noise?

    Hey AboStangster thanks for taking time to make the suggestion. You might be on to something with the heat shield. As I mentioned in my OP, the noise practically disappears when the car gets thoroughly warmed up. I'm sending the 360* camera under there again today to see if I can get a closer...

    wheel noise?

    Great suggestion. I have had everything out last spring including the carpet, side panels, spare deck and spare (where there was an old tool set somebody thought to stash) and also the trunk/bumper trim panel over the tail lights in search of loose parts without finding anything but it's worth...

    wheel noise?

    Bump. Is this a normal condition?

    wheel noise?

    Ok, I did a heap of searching for answers to this issue without a definitive resolution so here goes. I've had this light rattle/clunk from the right rear ever since I acquired the car. Boys at the shop have had a good long look at finding it without succe$$. Tech in the trunk road test. All...

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    Thanks DiMora but "true to build" is more important to me and the honor to the legacy of the builder than going epic. I know, I could've moved the pump and the size of the HE and the hoses and all that but this is still a Joe Gosinski build and true to the Saleen design intent. We're keeping it...

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    Update: Got the new pump and once we got the car up in the air, we discovered that the connector on the old intercooler pump was damaged, probably from a curb stop/speed bump/rumble strip. For any Saleen Series VI SC owners that aren't aware of the install conditions, please see the pic below of...

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    Hey tbrock, yep that's the plan. Thanks also for confirming the hopes for the coolant flow. The bay has always seemed way too warm for me anyway and while we have it up in the air I'm going to redirect the left front brake air cooler tube to the air dam/box at the filter to try to lower the...

    A bit of bad news for some of us ….

    It gets worse. Performance parts for tuned vehicles are/will be blocked for sale to residents of CA unless the vehicle is pre 1966 or for "off road" use only.

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    Thanks Pentalab, I have a new M8501 GT500 pump en route from AM ($136) now. A general fyi, I also ran a new OBD scan and had a P1000 error code (PCM test incomplete) so I checked all the fuses (fine) and swapped out the PCM relay a second time and bingo, IC pump is now circulating. No CEL, no...

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    Update: swapped in new parts, cleared the alerts, pump spooled up, car started up opened the recirc tank to check flow aaaand, no circulation. Ran the OBD scan and all codes clear. Shut the car off and let it sit for 10 minutes and turned the key back to on and no pump spool up. We take it in...

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    Well that didn't work. And now the car won't start. I get "Check Charging System" alert and a "Low Fuel Level" alert. Edit: Multi meter testing reveals a bad PCM relay diode, a bad PCM relay fuse and what may be an out of range/failing PCM relay. All parts in hand and/or on order. We'll see...

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    I can't get the car in the air and short of pulling the fender liner, I'm wondering if I can just unplug the 6 lead timer connector and jump it?

    Saleen intercooler pump stopped

    I read the heads up on upcoming CA smog changes and bought an OBD2 to see if I could tell how well my numbers stand up. Tried the OBD out on the Xterra first with no issues. Plugged it into the GT, turned the key to on and immediately heard an unfamiliar, repetitive electric motor sound from the...
