    Need help diagnosing hesitation on 96 GT

    Video: https://cloud.binarydad.com/s/xkzaf3NZk9Dr79s It has brand new plugs, wires, and coil packs. Fuel filter is fairly new and the MAF and IAT sensors were cleaned with dielectric cleaner. Another symptom is, under WOT at lower RPM, it has a repetitive hesitation, almost like a misfire...

    Need help tracking down hesitation off idle and under load > 2K RPM on GT

    Thanks. So far I've cleaned the MAF with an electronic spray cleaner, though I do have a spare I can pop in if needed. Fuel filter is fairly new. TB looked clean when I took off the inlet tube to put in the plugs. I do have a ODB scanner, but I'm not entirely sure what to look for. I use that...

    Need help tracking down hesitation off idle and under load > 2K RPM on GT

    I've changed the coil packs, the plugs, and the wires, yet it still hesitates. You can sort of hear the hesitation off idle when I blip the throttle in the short video below (sounds like a "wum-WUM" instead "wuum", if I had to describe it). Also, under load, usually above 2-3K RPM, it will feel...

    Will 17" 96 Wheels Work On 07 Gt?

    My girlfriend is in a pinch and has a bent rim. Due to lack of money, I was going to give her my old stock 245/45R17 wheels and put them on her 07 GT. Will they just slip on or will there be issues with the offset? Thanks.

    Intermittent Sputtering Under Load

    Yep, heater core hose leaked.

    Intermittent Sputtering Under Load

    No codes. Nothing pending either. I was planning on changing out the plugs and cleaning the MAF, just wasn't sure what else would be worth checking, especially considering the issue is intermittent rather than consistent.

    Intermittent Sputtering Under Load

    I recently had a coolant leak that, as I was told by my mechanic, got down into the plug wires. They've replaced the plug wires, I've replaced the two coil-packs, yet still have an issue with the engine where, intermittently under load, it will have a consistent sputter. Almost like a misfire...

    Sputtering Under Load At Low Rpm (<2k)

    As the title says, under load and at low RPMs, there is a consistent sputter, almost like a misfire, that goes away at higher RPM. Idle is smooth. No codes thrown. Car is in the sig. Stock coil packs, stock injectors. Wires are new-ish. Plugs, not sure. Fuel filter is new. What should I start...

    North East Reputable Paint Shop In Md?

    I'm looking to fully repaint my 1996 GT. Can anyone from MD (preferably the Balto-Annap-DC area) recommend a reputable shop? Thanks.

    Wow, It's Been A While...

    I haven't been on here in many years. Got married 8 years ago, finalizing a divorce as we speak, finally got the '96 cranked over this morning and looking forward to making some mods. Glad my SN login still works!! Good to be back!

    Car bra + Mach 1 chin spointer for 94-98 stang?

    thanks. do you remember how car back the leather ended and the straps began underneath? I can maybe put the straps UNDER the spoiler assuming the leather won't block the screw holes. I'd hate to drill through the bra.

    Car bra + Mach 1 chin spointer for 94-98 stang?

    Well, thanks but I said in my post it's just a coverup until I get the car painted, which may be in a year from now. So, I don't care if it gets scratched up. Can anyone let me know how the straps work on the bottom in regards to the chin spoiler? Thanks.

    Car bra + Mach 1 chin spointer for 94-98 stang?

    I'm looking to get a black front bra for the stang. The front paint looks like **** and until I get the entire car repainted, I'll go with covering it. I do have a mach 1 chin spoiler on it and not sure how most car bras hook on the bottom. I'd like to keep the spoiler sticking out if possible...

    How much to paint entire car?

    I'm thinking of having my 96 repainted the same color, or close to it. I have no idea how much it would cost me or where to go. Is MAACO a reputable place to get a decent paint job? Roughly how much would a full paint job cost? Thanks! Ryan

    pi intake swap help

    The gasket in the pic is a PI gasket. I can't answer the sensor question, but I can look at my car after work and see where the wires are coming from for the one on the tstat housing.

    pi intake swap help

    Man, this brings back memories. I did mine the same way using the newer PI gaskets and a nice gob of the sealant near the coolant holes. Worked fine until I got a set of heads cheap. For the sensor, I actually tapped into my t-stat housing (the silver dome). I don't recall the measurements...

    Random, high idle?

    My 96 GT has recently been having an issue where, with my foot OFF the gas, it would start to idle high. It does this about 3/4 of the time and it can idle high anywhere between 1200 to 2000 RPM, sometimes fluctuating in between. Sometimes it will go back down to around 800 on its own. Also...

    Where to buy OEM seats and trim for 96 mustang?

    Wow, can't believe my old login worked! Anyway, I'm looking to replace my gray OEM leather seats in my stang. I also am in need of some trim pieces for the interior. I have no clue anymore where I can get these parts. Does anyone recommend a good place/site where I can buy these OEM items...

    Options for redoing front seats?

    What options do I have for replacing my front seats? Can I buy "covers" for the leather? Do I have to buy new seat units? Or, should I just take it to an upholstery shop? What would average prices be for these? Thanks!
