No Crank no start. 2001 Cobra No Crank no start. 2001 Cobra
Question

Like the title says, no crank no start. I get one click when I turn the key.

Car has 78k miles on it. I decided to do seafoam treatment through the throttle body and followed the instructions. Took it for a 20 minute drive. When I pulled up to a stoplight I felt it stall out. On the second or third time it turned over for a split second but didn’t start. The next dozen attempts I only heard a single clicking noise.

I got it towed home and it’s now in the garage. I got the plugs out and serpentine belt off. I tried to turn the crank with a breaker bar but it wouldn’t budge. Tried tapping the starter - no effect. Tried turning it over with the plugs out but I still only get that single click noise.

Changes or seafoam causing the engine to seize? Or it might just be the starter?

Advice?

Thank you


ABS Light on, scan tool says no ABS detected even with an ABS module present ABS Light on, scan tool says no ABS detected even with an ABS module present
Question

I’ve been dealing with an ABS issue ever since I’ve been driving my car, I’m also going to school part time and my professor offered to point out a few things going wrong with my car. He used some snap on tablet and it said it didn’t detect an ABS module even though it’s present under the hood, everything appears to be hooked up as it should, is it possible that the module is just dead?

Question

I know it's pretty damn hard to find one nowadays cuz sumn sumn EPA sumn. Was just wondering if you guys knew where to find any at all. Thas it. I've about had it with my exhaust rn so imma just go up to 2.5 or sumn. No reason other than anything past the mid pipe is bullshit. Supposed to be 2.25 but I stg it just is not and its a lot smaller for whatever reason. So yeah.

If you have any reccommendations, send em. I plan on throwing some Flowmaster 40s on muh car too.

I've had her since she was brand new in '03. It was a highschool graduation present from my grandma. Just spent a couple grand and a few weeks worth of working fixing her up and getting her back on the road this spring. An old lady rear ended me as I was slowing down to turn into my neighborhood after work tonight. Everyone was physically alright, but I'm heartbroken right now.

EDIT: So upon further inspection today, I was able to get it running correctly. The fuel shut off was tripped, so I must have been running on fumes to get it home last night which is why it was sputtering so badly. Reset it and she runs fine, although the exhaust sounds a bit off with the pipe jacked up. Secondly, the side quarter panel appears to have been shoved forward because it's also not lining up properly with the door. Hopefully it's just the panel that's damaged and nothing underneath. Thirdly, the trunk is not latching because the latch is damaged. Nothing appears to be off with the frame inside the trunk as far as I can tell without taking it apart further. Lastly, upon speaking with the insurance agent, the lady who hit me took responsibility and they are going to pay for the damages. He didn't think it looked too bad based on these pictures which I sent to him, but ultimately it'll be up to an inspection/estimate as to whether they total it or not. Obviously if there's significant damage underneath that can't be seen it's going to make my chances a lot worse.

Difference in sound quality with car on/off (2002 mustang w/mach1000 system) Difference in sound quality with car on/off (2002 mustang w/mach1000 system)
Question

I’ve noticed that when I crank the volume real high while the car is off it sounds as expected, just really loud but listenable. But when the engine is running the top end treble sounds really tinny and hurts the ears. I have both automatic audio settings (rds and dsp) off, is there anything else I can do to stop this?


For anyone who has swapped their boots, can it be done without the factory bases? For anyone who has swapped their boots, can it be done without the factory bases?
Question

I've got new ones coming in today that don't include any base, just the leather. My current shifter boot still has the metal base and I believe I'll be able to reuse it. However my current parking brake boot is absolutely tattered. I haven't taken the center console apart yet but I can already see broken bits of the plastic base. It doesn't look all that salvageable from what I can tell. So my question is do I need those parts? Also, I know its a simple one, but any tips for the install would be appreciated.
