    02 GT at full Throttle issue?

    I saw that post about the other post. In his case, he had indicated that the sound increased progressively with increased in RPM. In my case, i only hear it at or near full throttle. So i am guessing this is not the worse case scenario. At least I hope not. Can you please describe what...

    02 GT at full Throttle issue?

    I am currently running octane 87 and I dont know if the car has ever been tuned. I am actually the second owner. Is there a way to tell without getting it tuned myself? As for the concern with Spung Rod Bearing, what is it (sorry for being auto ignorant)? I will try a higher octane...

    02 GT at full Throttle issue?

    I noticed that while in gear 4 and gear 5 and with the accelerator fully pressed down there is a slight,faint sound that resembled marble in a can. When this occured my gt continues to accelerate. Is this normal in all 02 GT's? If this is not normal, what can be causing this and how...

    Have you guys hear this before?

    Thank you all for the quick responses. After spending half a day trying to narrow down the sound and trying out the suggestions given by all of you, I have found the source of the squeak. As it turns out, it wasn't a squeak, but more of a click. The click sounded like a squeak because it...

    Have you guys hear this before?

    Earlier in the week i was looking for a rattle coming from the trunk and quarter panel area and i noticed that when i sit in the rear seat (driver side) there is a squeak of some sort coming from underneath the car (driver side right below where the seat is). I am assuming this is the result...

    Upper RPM skip

    I think i am experiencing this. I noticed that when i am in 4th gear and high reving (4500+ RPM) my car seem to miss (or at least sound like little marbles bouncing around faintly). In addition, when my car is warm or driven for a while, I would shut off the engine for a quick starbucks. Then...

    Urgent: Am I missing a screw or some kind of cover?

    Yup that is a firestone and Yup, I know they are not the best and probably one of the worst. How would the GT benefit from a motorcraft filter? I understand it is good, but how good is it?

    Urgent: Am I missing a screw or some kind of cover?

    I was doing a routine self check of my 02 GT and I noticed something looked odd in the engine department. Please see picture (I have it circled). What is this part and what does it do? When I look from the top, down I can see oil of some sort. Am I missing something here or is that...

    Engine Idle and RPM a problem?

    The last time i brought my GT in for service (1 month ago), they took a look at the battery and alternator and both are normal. Not sure if it is electrical. I hope this is normal. Any other inputs? By the way, thanks for responding.

    Help With Clicking Noise?

    Thanks for your reply. I don't think I have this issue, but I figure i learn about it and educate myself. Honestly, I probably won't even know if I have this problem or not and I can't hear any difference from the video. How would I know and how can I tell?

    Engine Idle and RPM a problem?

    I have several questions about rpm and engine idling. 1. When my GT is idling at neutral, it revs at around 600rpm and this is constant. When my AC is on while idling, it revs between 600-900rpm and this do not remain constant. Over the course one to two minutes it will switch...
