    Car is sputtering

    Car is sputtering

    well, changed the EGR and I THINK it runs better, but im not sure, its been raining so i cant really drive it the way i normally do. anyways, the non-HO 302's have the same EGR # if some of you ever wondered. also, my stock oil pressure gauge twitches a little sometimes, even going up to about...

    91 5.0 VS. 96 4.6

    I just had to quote this, i know its old but it was a such a good laugh LOL oh god. :rlaugh: you really dont know how horsepower/torque works do you? "build horsepower". :lol: the 96-96 GT's didnt rev much higher at all, actually the powerband was very similar to the 5.0, especially from...

    Car is sputtering

    yeah, i found some of his posts. by reading through some of his posts on the subject, i hope its the egr. anyone know what other cars/trucks/etc. used the same egr system (interchangeable) so that i would just easily go to the junkyard and get one? and yeah, the ego sensor ground is grounded so...

    Car is sputtering

    well, i checked the spark plug on cylinder #2. the porcelain was cracked. hopefully that is it. on another note, my headers dont have the o2 sensors on the collectors, they have them on 1 header pipe coming form the cylinders on each side. thats not going to give me some accurate reading anyways...

    Lifespan of 5.0L engine?

    i have not seen the hyper pistoned 93-95 cars run any less miles than the 87-92 motors. and they run cleaner. usually the rings will go before the pistons ever do on either one anyways.

    Car is sputtering

    lol i will pull codes tomorrow. dont got a code reader (stolen) so will have to do the paperclip trick. ill post what happens. oh yeah, other rotor/distributor did nothing. and no, no way to monitor fuel pressure during hesitation. Im thinkin the plug wires are still grounding. when setting my...

    Car is sputtering

    well, i cleaned the MAF today, the thing was kinda black. still didnt help any with the hesitation but the car drove and responded smoother than before but the sputtering still returns. but it did it when i floored it as well today, so im guessing its fuel or ignition. i'm gonna swap out the...

    Car is sputtering

    well the car runs ALOT smoother, but it just did it again with the hesitation/sputtering, just doesnt do it as bad. feels like when i first put the MAF in (76mm). it ran like complete crap. then i turned it about 45* and it ran perfectly. now, almost two weeks later its running like it was...

    Car is sputtering

    well, i checked the plugs and they all looked cool. checked if the plugs were grounding, some are, in the process of moving the plug wires around so they touch no metal. ill post in a few minutes to tell you the outcome.
