Been a reader of forums like this one for years (S10, Monte Carlo, Dakota) but admittedly never joined or contributed to any of them. That, id like to change. Over the years, guys like you and the knowledge that you share, has saved me THOUSANDS so I really hope I can contribute to the knowledge base somehow. Ive spent the last 4 months that ive owned the car fixing everything mechanically wrong with it i can find. It now runs almost perfect. Ive taken lots of pics.Also, I have the 1996 Mustang Factory Service Manual, the Electrical and Vacuum Troubleshooting Manual (complete with every wire diagram) and the  Pre-Delivery Maintenance And Lubrication booklet for 1996 Ford cars and trucks. I would be glad to share any of that stuff with whoever whether its taking pics of parts you need to see, or snapping some pics of the pages in the manuals.Many of you know infinitely more about these cars (and possibly auto mechanics in general) then I probably will, but ive done alot of basic repairs on the car even in such a short time and will continue to; so hopefully i can help somebody out somewhere. Also i promise to make sure anything i share is as accurate as I can best verify. In short; I promise not to talk a bunch of s&%t about a bunch of s!@t I dont know. Anyways.....heres my GT. <a href="http://s377.photobucket.com/user/DrPeterBlunt/media/MustangExterior3_zps6frjlqec.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i377.photobucket.com/albums/oo213/DrPeterBlunt/MustangExterior3_zps6frjlqec.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="http://s377.photobucket.com/user/DrPeterBlunt/media/Mustang%20Exterior1_zpsickjjugi.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i377.photobucket.com/albums/oo213/DrPeterBlunt/Mustang%20Exterior1_zpsickjjugi.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="http://s377.photobucket.com/user/DrPeterBlunt/media/MustangExterior2_zpsj73j3zqr.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i377.photobucket.com/albums/oo213/DrPeterBlunt/MustangExterior2_zpsj73j3zqr.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a><a href="http://s377.photobucket.com/user/DrPeterBlunt/media/96Mustang-Ford%20Seat%20Covers_zpsrjgdzfp9.jpg.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i377.photobucket.com/albums/oo213/DrPeterBlunt/96Mustang-Ford%20Seat%20Covers_zpsrjgdzfp9.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" /></a>So far Ive fixed all this stuff and possibly can help with any questions about them:It is completely stock so far except for an Airaid air filter and a set of rusty flowmasters. (Rust holes or not, to me it sounds utterly badass)Replaced IAC & adjusted and reset the idleReplaced AlternatorReplaced  leaky Oil Cooler gasket. Was leaking both oil and coolantComplete Trans fluid replace (not just the pan, all of it)Replaced Outter Tie-Rod endsReplaced Power Steering rack and fluid + new Inner Tie-Rods Added quick release battery terminals connectors (love them. disconnect the neg terminal in literally 1 second, and they look good)Replaced both Front Wheel Hub assembliesReplaced fore and aft U-jointsReplaced stock 4way Power Seat track with 99 and up 6way Power Seat track on my 96 seatsAm currently refurbishing the interior since the car mechanically runs excellent now. After that will be the exterior, and then finally after that.......make.it.fast.Well, Thanks for reading.</blockquote>
