    How screwed am I?

    LOL......Its never a problem when you WORK for FORD!!!!!!! The service manager at my local dealer thought it looked pretty cool......imagine that.

    How screwed am I?

    Listen.....This is what happens when you try to put too much performance on a stock engine.....basicly...you are screwed!!!! :nonono: Not only will Ford not fix this under warranty but they will probably never fix anything on your car under warranty due to the mods you did. :( If you are going...

    How do you Winterize a Stang?

    Why would you leave the windows down a bit???? Anyways i agree with all other comments made except i would let it run longer than 20 minutes....probably 40 to 45 minutes. You wanna make sure if you start it that all the condensate trapped in the muffler and exhaust pipes is evaporated out or it...

    When is your Mustang hibernating?

    Mine is going to sleep at the end of the month. I have a 97 S10 to drive in the winter. I just pump the tires up really good, disconnect the neg battery cable, fill the tank up and add a little sta-bil to the gas to keep it fresh. I am not really sure how hard it is on the engine the first time...

    maintenace ?????

    Check your owners manual for the maintenance schedule...It will tell you what needs to be done and at what mileage. The most important thing is changing your oil and filter every 3000 miles & keeping the exterior clean and protected. Seeing how you live in NYC you should have a winter beater so...

    hesitation after engine clean, what happened

    Your 1st mistake was taking it to a car wash. The wands even on low put out way to much pressure and you probably drove some water into a connector. I do mine about every 3 months. You need to find a friend who owns a house and has a gerden hose. It only takes a fine mist to wet it and rinse it...
