Re: Update on mustang engine issue.

I like them too. Adds some color to it. They match my Trick Flow pully kit. I got to clean my engine bay up. I aplogize that it is dirty it hurts my eyes. I put that mothers back to black on and it is a dust magnet. I live on my half dirt road and it the etire car gets dusty the second I get on the dirt or gravel.
Thanks guys

Re: Update on mustang engine issue.

here is a pic of my car all finished with all the plug wires in. and I guess the bolt for one of the holes on the shock tower brace the thread was stripped after i took it out it would not go back in so i am going to rethread it.

Re: Update on mustang engine issue.

I use all kinds of gas. I get mainly Cheveron but sometimes I get Valero opr even safeway gas. When I get the safeway gas I get the high octane.

If you mainly run Chevron, save some money and don't worry about running cleaners. Chevron has them in it already.

I got plug wires today. I am putting them on. And I hope this issue does not come back. I hope i found the problem in the spark plug and plug wires. If it does it again I am going to get the O2s. I would have bought it today but I spent 170 bucks today of plugs and plug wires and a fan belt for the bird and plug wires for the mustang so I think I have spent enough for the week.

If the CEL is still on, I'd get that anyways because your engine isn't running right then.

Glad it all worked out. You need to swap in a 4V, I did on my 00 GT when I had it. Makes for changing spark plugs a lot easier

Re: Update on mustang engine issue.

What brand gas do you use?

Re: Update on mustang engine issue.

The lucas product did not have a interval rule on the bottle. I only use it two times a month at the most.

Re: Update on mustang engine issue.

Just follow the instructions on the FI Cleaner. Running too much at too close of intervals can burn out injectors. For example, Chevron Fuel System Cleaner says to only use every 3,000 miles. Others say every fill up.
