    blew up my engine

    I have a 2000 GT motor in my 97 GT. If you go to a Ford wrecking yard you could find a motor out of a 2000 and newer mustang. maybe go with a 05 GT motor because they have the new heads. Have you torn it apart to see what the damage is?

    codes p1131 and p1151 HELP

    My Mustang did the same code p1131 lean and I reset it and it has not come back on and it has been 4 months. Since you put a tune on the tuner maybe the computer is confused. Maybe you should reset it and watch to see if it comes back on. Sometimes the computer reads something wrong.

I am willing to get a new kit because I am going to be driving all the time when I start college and the current clutch...
