What's the part number for the pulley on the tensioner for the supercharger? The tensioner seems to be good but the plastic pulley bearing is bad, makes a lot of noise.

And is the crankshaft main drive pulley common to other 3.8 or any other Ford engine for that matter?

I just noticed mine has a small wobble.

I think I may need a replacement.

The actual pump was a replacement by the Ford dealer on my 89 (at the tune of about $2.5K circa 1999). The pump was removed from my 89 when it was totaled and just installed on my old 35th anniversary but there is a leak. All signs point to the shaft seal of the pump motor so I wanted to source that bloody seal. ]]> Technical Forum CaifanSC http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130101 alternator light on at idle?? if rev goes off? http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130099&goto=newpost Sun, 19 May 2013 00:01:20 GMT the alt can go out like this? i have had alts go bad but not like this or is just the belt that it's slipping ? does any one know with a volt m at the bat i have 12.7 at idle...? any suggestions ]]> Technical Forum BECERRASC http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130099 Chat room http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130098&goto=newpost Sat, 18 May 2013 23:13:46 GMT Any way the chat room can be enabled again ?

My 89 that got hit in the front end is sitting on the property collecting dust. The frame is straight and the body is fixable. I already gutted the interior so I am thinking of building a race car out of it for some high speed runs.

I was thinking a turbo as it will be easier to make the power that it will need. A big remote or mid mount should be easy and lag won't matter as I just need to get her to speed.

I know I would want big brakes so I was wondering about the suspension?

How light can you get the car?

Could be fun. I have a friend who went 199 in his Porsche 928. The 928 drag coefficient is .35 and the SC is .31 so the are good there. The twin screw euro 928 I had was just shy of breaking the record in it's class then I blew the motor!:mad:

Could be a fun project!:D ]]> Racing/Track Results superdadsc http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130097 What gap to run? http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130096&goto=newpost Sat, 18 May 2013 22:08:48 GMT I just ordered the last of what I need to get the car together. So, it will be running again in the next week or two!! My last question is, what gap to run on the plugs? I had problems when I was spraying the Mark 8 with 'blowing the spark out.' I solved that by going to low resistance plug wires and gapping the plugs down to.030". That was with a 125hp shot. If I have a MPx w/coated rotors running at 15% od, is it really that important on these cars? I have always seen low voltages with these cars which made me not worry about the gap. But, again I have never seen one of these cars pushed this hard in person. ]]> Technical Forum HwyStar http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130096 05 f150 supercrew lariat 4wd http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130095&goto=newpost Sat, 18 May 2013 21:10:18 GMT 2005 F150 supercrew lariat 4wd 175000 hwy miles.

It runs but theres a miss or misfire.I bought new plug wires, coil pack,cleaned the inside of the throttle body, the misfire is still there.I bought new set of plugs,(AWSF34PP), those arent installed yet.When I first start it up, the tach needle will fluctuate,I'll hear a knock for a few seconds.If I dont keep my foot on the gas, it wants to die.After I restart it, the tach will stay steady.This is my first SC, I never saw so many senors on a car.At least the Check Engine Light isnt coming on.Ive owned Fords since 1973, from a 1938 Coupe to a '57 and up. but this is most complex car I ever owned.Any replies pertaining to my car problem is appreciated. ]]> Technical Forum fordman90 http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130090 Fuel Pressure Reg. Issue? http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130089&goto=newpost Fri, 17 May 2013 23:30:02 GMT When my car a 89'SC at idle it has 38psi of fuel pressure with the vacuum hose on and 40psi with it off and my stock Vacuum gauge in the car says 8 to 9.inc. It also has a missfire, and run rougher the warmer it gets. The rough running tho is more noticeable at idle or when you put it in a high gear like 5th and floor it you can watch the Vac. gauge twitch. I found out that when I give it gass my fuel pressure goes up to like 50 or so but then tanks to like 28psi with my throttle still open. When it idles back down it goes back to 38psi. Also once the car warms up it stalls out when at idle and is then really hard to start, the engine turns over but it doesn't want to start up unless i pump the gas peddle over and over. Also, there is no smoke of any kind coming out of my exhaust, and no gas in the oil or anything like that. When I pulled the plugs they did have black carbon on them like it was running rich, and one plug had fuel still on it. Replaced the fuel injector on that but it didn't help.


Things I've tried so far- New fuel filter, new spark plugs and wires, new coil pack, new TPS and Idle motor, new MAF, new Computer, new Coolant temp sensor, new crankshaft sensor and new cam sensor. Tried D/C ing the O2 sensors just to see if anything changed, it did not. I've checked and checked for vacuum leaks and can find none, also new EGR valve. ]]> Technical Forum Facesnatcher http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130089 New Big Dog on LI NY http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130088&goto=newpost Fri, 17 May 2013 19:36:13 GMT 11.58@119 so far with 23 degrees timing...More to come 11.58@119 so far with 23 degrees timing...More to come ]]> Non Technical Forum XxSlowpokexX http://www.sccoa.com/forums/showthread.php?t=130088
