    Computer wont learn proper idle with A/C on.

    Have you tried disconnecting the neg battery terminal and letting it sit overnight? Believe me, I didn't think it would work either when someone told me to do it but it did fix my idle problem. The only thing is everytime I make tuner mods, I have to do it all over again or the idle hangs.

    Sparkplugs misgapped....

    Over the weekend I changed my original motorcraft plugs with a new set of the AWSF-32PMs. I was expecting the original plugs in my car to be the AWSF-32PP but they were the newer AWSF-32PM (longer thread) plugs. My car is an '04. I also noticed that each of the old plugs I pulled from my car...

    Curious, what's the reason for rolling fenders? Is it to keep tires from rubbing or something? :shrug:

    Shadow Grey w/Chrome Bullitts

    Anyone here have pictures of a mineral grey or dark shadow grey mustang ('00-'04) with chrome bullitt wheels? I'm trying to make my final decision on either a set of chrome or polished deep dish wheels without looking too ghetto. I'm undecided if I want the chrome, polished or the black...

    Whats wrong with YOUR pony?

    LOL! Mine does exactly the same thing with the driver's side window! Sometimes (usually after I wash it) it will stop working and then all the sudden fix itself later. I thought I was the only one. Other than that, dirves like crap in hot weather.

    Jacksonville, FL = Gear install?

    Anyone here live in Jacksonville, FL? I'm looking for someone to install my 3.73's in my 04 gt 5 sp. J&D Serivces quoted $350 but just for the basic gear install. I haven't found any good info on a local shop that installs ford racing gears (accept ford for about $900) so I'm trying this here.

    Best mod for $299?

    What about an electric water pump. Don't they offer a little better cooling plus additional hp? Meizer (sp?) offers their pump for about $300. Alos, why no interest in u/d pullies?

    tps help

    Ok, after all this time fooling with the tps and buying a multimeter, I just realized my predator tells me the voltage. After the accufab plenum and tb install, i was running 0.96v closed and 4.61 open. Today on my lunch break I loosened the two screw barley enough to where I can wobble the tps...

    tps help

    I installed the accufab plenum & TB on my 04 yesterday. I have the same problem as you with the hanging rpms. When I messed with the tps the hanging rpms came down but down too much. I shouldn't have messed with it in the first place because NOW I FRIGGEN BROKE IT, ARRRRGGGG! Anyway, (i feel...

    96-96/99-04 4.6 Plug Wire Interchange

    Forgive me if I'm missing something here but how easy is it to strip a plug hole on a 2003 mustang? I have an '04 and was considering changing my plugs soon due to a couple of past misfires. I've always changed my own plugs on past cars including my late '87 5.0. Is there something I should...

    a weird noise after installing a mac o/r h pipe

    I used a new flange gasket I purchased from Ford plus the one Mac supplied me with. Call it overkill but i wanted to make sure I had no leaks. So far no leaking sounds. The only noise I hear is when the car is fully warmed up and that strange tick coming from the driver's side every now and...

    Lose The Rear Cats, Lose Torque.

    I have a '04 gt 5 speed. i purchased the car with 10,000 miles on it and I've always been burdened with the sluggish 1st gear. In normal driving situations when I leave the red light cars are either walking away from me or i got some yo/yo riding my bumper. Once I'm shifting out of second into...

    What the hell is this noise???

    I noticed the same sound coming from my 04 a couple of weeks ago. At that time the only mods to my car were nothing more than a k&n, jlt, flowmaster. My car is bone stock with oem settings. I happened to notice the noise while sitting next to a van in traffic. When I slightly reved my engine the...

    Firewall Grommet Help!

    Napa may have a plug that you can use. When I had my 87 I drilled a new hole in my firewall to run some ignition wires, and battery cable. Napa had plug grommets that fit. Otherwise a small shot of spray foam will take care of it.
