do you have a retractable antenna, if so, does it go up and down, if it doesn't it's the gears in the motor. If it's not the antenna then I don't know. Mine doesn't work and it just buzzes, but it does it when I turn the key on and off.

what size inlet and outlet of an exhaust manafold is on my 1995 thunderbird.
 
Also what is the biggest I can put on my stock engine.
 
I'm just looking to do some mods.

What is the difference on having a bigger exhaust pipe than a smaller pipe??

A neighbor that has the same 96 Tbird only his is the sport version talked to me today and asked what is the problem with his bird. It pulls real hard to the left going down level straight roads but if he just barely touches the brakes it goes straight !
 
Any idea ? I think alinement !

Sounds like to me that the driver side piston in the brake caliper is not disengaging, thus in nomal driving there would be a pull to the left and when the other side engages no more pull I hope this helps.....

Be sure your modifications are compatible with the on board computer!

So you don't know how big the manafold is and you don't what size I can put on it without worring about the computer.

Maybe try some websites or forums specifically for MN12 T-Birds and 4.6 V8's.
A lot of people mod these motors and would probably know what would work.
