What was the best upgrade?

So, I’ve been having issues with my tachometer for a while. I’ve done the solder check/reheat, also swapped a few different clusters and all give the same result. The tach just reads about 50-75% of what it should be. What I’m thinking to do is overlay a new wire and see what that does. Curious if a...

I think the FPD is there for and because of the injectors... The injectors opening and closing can set up an oscillating pressure in the rail which leads to unstable pressure and potentially damage to the injectors... That's why it's located right by the rail, that's the area it's designed to work ...

Lots of links out there about modifying the Saginaw pump for pressure and/or volume. Here's one... http://www.gmtruckcentral.com/articles/2013/powersteeringmods/ Alternatively, you don't actually have to make the modifications yourself, but can just raid pumps at the junkyard for the different spec...

I’ll try those things, when I turn the key to on it only turns on the dash lights, it does not turn on the fuel pump, turn key to crank and there is no click or anything, thank you for the help Sounds like you may have a few things going on. You need to determine if you have voltage at the pumps. T...

I am not sure what the configuration of you sylinoid is, but.... There should be 12V going to the small wire on the solenoid next to the battery when you turn the key to crank position. Check the fuel filter under the drivers seat, actually if the car hasn't ran in a year or so, change it, very easy...

It's hard to see how he has the belt wrapped, is there any contact on the water pump really?

If I recall correctly, the XR has 12mm bolts to fit the caliper? So, if we get the 2005 Focus parts they should bolt right up? Nope, stock is a rather wimpy 10mm. That's why Tim was concerned about taking away so much metal going from 10 to 14mm, if the 2012+ Focus calipers were used as-is. I'm pre...
