Technician B says when using a floorjack, the handle should be kept in the lowered position When a tire is marked as ‘Temporary Use Only’, this means It is only suitable to use as a spare tire to move the vehicle to a safe place while the original tire is repaired When rising a car with a floor jack, never go under the car without jackstands Technician A says that radial tires grip the road better because they have higher rolling resistance. Technician B says that radial tires are better because they run hotter than cross-ply tires. Who is correct? Technician A says some electric fans will run when the engine is off and the key is removed from the ignition. Technician B says the only way an electric fan can run is when the engine is running. Who is correct? All Matters are made up of… Atoms When an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, it is said to Have no overall charge An excess of electrons will give the atom a Negative charge A material with more free electrons is commonly referred to as A conductor ‘EMF’ stands for ‘Electro Motive Force’. In circuit calculations the ‘E’ is used instead of ‘EMF’.

  • SWAP.4 Disc Brake Conversion Installation Guide for Mustang, Falcon, and Equivalent Applications
    CLASSIC SERVICES RESTORATION PARTS SWAP.4 Disc Brake Conversion Installation Guide For Mustang, Falcon, and Equivalent Applications Manual Brake 67-73 Mustang and Equivalents 1st EDITION, REV A Please read this guide completely before starting the installation. Call us at 512-947- 6718, or email to [email protected] if you need technical assistance Copyright 2008-2017 CSRP HOLDING LLC; All rights reserved 1 http://www.discbrakeswap.com I. INTRODUCTION The chassis on which Mustang is based was first introduced for Falcon/Comet in 1960. This basic chassis grew to encompass the Mustang, Cougar, Fairlane, Ranchero, Econoline, Torino, Montego, Maverick, Granada, Monarch, and Versailles, and was retired after the 1980 model year to be replaced by the Fox chassis. During this time, the suspension remained basically the same. Minor year model changes resulted in three families of steering knuckles (spindles) which had unique geometries. The first was the pre 63, the second was 63-65 Falcon and 65-66 Mustang, and a third family starting with 66 Falcon, including 67-73 Mustang and 74-80 Mavericks, Granadas, and Monarchs. For our purposes, we will discuss the 65-66 Mustang type, and the 67-73 Mustang /Maverick/Granada type. The 67-73 Mustang and the Maverick/Granada type have identical ball joint and steering geometries. The steering geometry of the 65-66 differs from the others by a small amount. The outer tie rod geometries remained the same for the entire series with model year differences in the tie rod stud diameter. Until recently, Mustang and Falcon owners interested in upgrading their front brakes to disc brake type were presented with the choice of an expensive commercial kit, or scrounging junkyards for Granada or Mustang type systems.

  • Periodic Motor Vehicle Inspection Manual for Inspectors Of
    December 2017 PMVI Manual for Inspectors of Passenger Cars and Light Trucks ITEMS TO BE INSPECTED Note: Inspectors are not required to disassemble and reassemble parts to do an inspection. For example, if a vehicle has wheel covers that cover the lug nuts, the lug nuts need not be inspected. If an inspector elects to remove the covers for the inspection, there can be no additional charge for the additional work involved. BODY ITEMS (Form Line 29) Exterior Body Inspection: Check body parts for damage that compromises function or has potential for causing additional injury to someone who is hit by the vehicle. If the body is modified to the extent that a reconstructed vehicle permit is required, the vehicle must pass recon before it can pass the PMVI. Fail if: ►Any body part is improperly installed, dislocated, or protruding from the exterior surface so as to be a potential hazard. ►The body was modified significantly but the vehicle does not have a reconstructed vehicle inspection sticker and permit. (See Reconstructed Vehicle Permit Required on Page 17) Battery & Wiring (Form Line 29) Fail if: ►Insulation is worn so that bare wire has potential for causing a short. ►Cable connection is loose. ►Battery is leaking, not securely mounted to the vehicle with battery securing hardware, terminals are severely corroded, or a cell vent cap is missing. BRAKES (Line 8) Antilock Brake System Vehicles with an antilock brake system (ABS) have a warning light (telltale) for the ABS. It illuminates when the ignition is initially turned on, but after the computer completes its checks, the light should go out.
