    Does the computer need to be reset after I clean the MAF sensor, or does it adjust instantaneously? Thanks Matt

    How is the 91-94 Audiophile system wired, in terms of the HU/subwoofer/amp? When would you need to buy a bypass kit for the sub and amp? Thanks Matt

    Won't move in 1st or Rev w/out excessive throttle

    Actually the idle is sorta low (100-200rpms lower than norm)... I never really related the two. But the idle's always a little bit low, and this problem has only ever happened like 4 times? What do you think Matt

    Won't move in 1st or Rev w/out excessive throttle

    I've checked the transmission fluid and its normal. Since my first post, this "friction" while moving from a stop hasn't happened at all. But its weird because that day it did happen, it would get stuck everytime i stopped, it wasnt just one time and that was it. But...the next time i drove...

    Won't move in 1st or Rev w/out excessive throttle

    Hey guys and gals, I turn to you once again... today my truck started acting up. You know how when you let off the brake while you're in gear and the truck starts to drift slowly? Well something seems to be sticking, when I let off the gas (in drive or reverse), the truck doesn't go...

    Old friend with new questions: alternator, another battery, new amp...

    I'm thinkin about the JBL BP1200.1amp, its a $275 class D amp that pushes 1200W at 2 ohms (which is perfect). Sounds like a good deal??? Thanks, MAtt

    Girlfriend will get me subs for anniversary!

    It's been a while!! Well the sub is in the Explorer...been there for about 2-3 onths now and I love having that bass. The dvcs on the 1208x are actually 1 ohm, so we wired them in series for 2 ohms, the amp is giving a 4 ohm load. I'm only using one side of the amp so this summer I want to get...

    Girlfriend will get me subs for anniversary!

    Well are the Ford/JBL highs and mids in the door crap cuz I think they sound pretty good. Maybe the mids they put in dont handle as much midbass freq because the stock sub took care of that instead.... is that right, you think its just the mids, not something hooked up wrong?

    Girlfriend will get me subs for anniversary!

    The crossover is set at 100Hz, I just put it up to see if that was why I wasnt getting the higher bass frequencies, but it didnt help. So is it just the mids in the door that arent hitting those notes? I would swear the notes Im missing should be hitting through the sub...

    The Pioneer DEH-P6000 is in, the Audiobahn single 12" is in, and the Alpine v12 series 4 chan amp is in!! Im stoked, it hits and sounds good! Gives a good back massage too! One thing: the sub isnt hitting high bass freq notes very well, I'd say it cuts off at about 100Hz. I've adjusted the...
