    Drivetrain malfunction while driving

    By Qisl

    When recently driving to work my SE stalled out with a drivetrain malfunction. I was too flustered in traffic to take a picture. The car restarted and proceeded without issue. The dealership found a fault in the EME. Corporate was consulted. Diagnosis involved fully depleting the battery to 0%, and then charging to 100%. The issue was resolved with a software update (programming encoding control unit). I have been driving my U25 SE while my F56 SE was being worked on. The cloud of darkness... Read more

    When you walk away from a project (NOT A SALE AD)

    By rbkt65

    and have a ton of new parts, how are you pricing the new parts. I am probably going to walk away from my 70 Dart. I have bought a lot of new parts. If I include them in the price of the rolling unit, what price do I put on them. I have the following new parts that I bought. Gas tank, carpet, fuel sending unit, shorty headers, new leaf springs, 1/2 inch inboard spring relocation kit. A lot more than this. Do I price them at the price I bought them at or lose a little money. If the person had... Read more

    Ebay and other auction sites to sell a car: Stories happy and not so happy....

    By Kern Dog

    A few years back, I made a few bucks selling cars on ebay. That whole schmere can be a real variable. You can post up something and many things can happen. The three that I have seen are.... 1) Didn't meet reserve. 2) Barely made reserve. 3) Passed reserve by an amount that surprised me. I bought a few Dusters and Darts pretty cheap, put them together with a mix of new stuff and junkyard parts and make a few bucks. I really enjoyed the build of the cars. I didn't get rich but it helped pay... Read more

    Proactive radiator replacement at 8.5 years / 90k since last one?

    By Grumvee

    Hi Mud! 2011 LX570, ~172k miles Radiator was replaced in May 2018 at 89k, so the current one has about 90k miles and 8.5 years on it. No cracks, no leaks, no coolant loss, no temp issues. I’ve read through the PSA thread and the general takeaway seems to be that most of these need a radiator before 150k. Mine is a replacement OEM unit rather than the original, so I’m trying to figure out whether the clock resets in any meaningful way or whether the newer units fail on the same schedule... Read more

    By erickson

    I bought a Hemi car that motor was installed without the dip stick tube. I first made a tool Hoping I could do from under the car. It didn’t work. I made a 2nd tool to pound it in from the top. I had to remove the exhaust manifold I thought I would share the tool I made. It worked great

    TRDdrew's build: let me introduce Waffles

    By TRDdrew

    I acquired this 91 3FE 80 series with 212k on the clock in september of 2022, It was a surreal experience of how I came to owning it and will do my best to document the build as i go along. Ultimately the story goes as followed..... I had seen this 80 sitting at a local repair shop for about a month. I finally called them to see what was going on with it. The shop said it had come in for a new sunroof glass and the owner was supposed to supply the part, they did release the owners phone... Read more

    Timing advance at 3000 RPM

    By devo

    This question is one sprung from my curiosity of how timing advance is effected by RPMs. Is there an upper limit to how far an OEM distributor will advance the timing and what is optimal. I have a 1981 2F with the small cap vacuum advance dizzy which is working properly. My timing is set at 10 degrees BTDC. The vacuum at the carb port is steady @ -20 above idle speed. What is the upper limit of advance? Is there an optimal number of degrees that is reached @ 3000 RPM (3000 is just a... Read more

    68 quarter panels and filler panel fitment

    By bmcentir

    I’m in the process of installing the passenger side quarter panel on my 68 Satellite and running into a fitment issue. At the lower corner of the window where the filler panel is installed, the quarter panel sits about 7/8”+ a tad above the level of the window channel. It is causing the quarter panel not to sit down on the filler panel without leaving a 3/8” gap between the two parts. It seems like it should be flush? All of my rear window lower corners were rusted out completely and there... Read more

    Project 80 series for sale (is mine, lol)

    By dogfishlake

    I am listing my project truck (and parts truck) that, like several others, I just can't seem to finish. It is a 1996 triple locked 80 series that originally came from San Diego. I bought it from a friend and fellow Mud member from Florida. The original owner drove it from CA to Florida and blew the head gasket in FL. She walked away from it when she got the price tag to fix it. It was purchased without a title and then sold to me for parts. It is missisng some items I planned to pull off... Read more

    2012 Mazda5 GT Totaled :( Some Items For Sale

    By Z3SpdDmn

    I'm so sad to have lost our 2012 Mazda5 Grand Touring in an accident in July. The other driver was 100% at fault and I'm angry that a good, clean, inexpensive car was taken off the road, likely to be replaced in this world by a bloated SUV or EV. I'd only gotten it about a year prior (flown to VA to get a known-history, non-salted example), had put a bunch of work into it to bring it up to my standards, and invested in it to go another 100k miles. Sadly, it won't get the chance. I have a... Read more

    Does anyone else have difficulties raising and/or lowering their third row seats? Lucid has worked on mine more than once. After obtaining my Gravity back today and them saying it was all fixed.... Neither myself, nor the delivery chap, could make the seats work. Joy
