Re: 93 Feature Yellow/White and 5 Speed

Which show and what class?

The judges are not really supposed to open the airbox and look beyond the surface. How did they know you had a K&N?

Re: 93 Feature Yellow/White and 5 Speed

Need HELP? I have just discovered that my gas tank 1/4-1/2/-full gauge is not working properly. Any ideas what I look for and the big thing... Is it easily repaired or am I looking at removing the gas tank... ETC...

Re: 93 Feature Yellow/White and 5 Speed

It sounds like a former owner didn't keep the tank full all of the time and drove around with 1/2 tank or less a lot.

It may be that if your car sat for a long time before you got it those solder traces may just be extremely dirty. Running some high test gas for a while may improve the operation of the sending unit.

If the high-test fuel doesn't work after a month or so the tank will have to come out to replace the sending unit.

Ford got away from wire-wound gas level sending units somewhere in the 70s or 80s, I believe. You used to be able to remove the sending unit, disassemble it and clean the wrapped wire and the gauge would go back to working right.

Ford sending units, as I have seen recently, consist of a solder-trace gridwork on the sending unit circuit board and that trace gets wiped away by the float arm as the units age and the float is up and down a lot. It could be that someone consistently drove on $5.00 worth of gas here, or $3.00 worth of gas there causing the lower end of these traces to be used a lot, causing this wear or wearing out of the solder traces. I am not sure if you can get this board re-solder-bathed to correct the problem.

Re: 93 Feature Yellow/White and 5 Speed

Thanks... makes sense! I will try a gas additive and see if that helps.

Re: 93 Feature Yellow/White and 5 Speed

I agree.... this is another example of not original.

I took 2nd at a Mustang America Show because of a K&N air filter.

Am I mistaken or is your yellow feature lowered? Doesn't look to be stock height in the picture.

Re: 93 Feature Yellow/White and 5 Speed

No... never lowered... correct tires too... I have seen some that bigger tires and seem raised.

I like the red color on yours. Perhaps the white rims are higher that the chrome ponies?

Take a close look at this one and tell me if you see "Gray" and not all black interior parts (dash ETC) the features were all black.

Re: 93 Feature Yellow/White and 5 Speed

Hey... I did my homework and the Yellow/White/5speed with 113 made is the #33 rarest mustang. The 3White is #53. Send me your info and I will see where you rank.

Also... I have my Marti report! Very Nice and Very Quick!
