    2003 Gt Engine Failure

    P0506 is a more generic OBD-code for idle speed too low. All of the things you mention -- brake loading, A/C clutch load -- and more (e.g. power steering cramp) are used by the PCM to use its idle air control valve to bump the idle a bit to maintain proper speed. I agree with wmburns: it...

    Wow. Looks great.

    Crazy blue light flashing in my gauges!

    Almost looks like an EL (electro-luminescent) illumination issue -- if the overlays even use that. Does it happen only when the headlights are on?

    Only 75% Power When Hot

    Without the snorkel the engine is pulling air from the under-hood environment through the big hole in the side of the airbox. If you have high under-hood temperatures you're losing charge density and the PCM is probably pulling spark timing. I think the factory tune is pretty mild when it comes...

    Only 75% Power When Hot

    Airbox snorkel/silencer removed or still intact?

    Only 75% Power When Hot

    Do you have an aftermarket intake on the car? If so, what type? Theory: A cone filter open to the engine bay is sucking hot, underhood air. High IATs result in less dense air and retarded timing to prevent detonation.

    Grinding Noise.. Brakes??

    Pull the wheel and inspect the pads. Disc brake pads may have some degree of contact with the rotors. If the pads are down to the metal you could hear noise even without touching the pedal. While that side is in the air and before you've pulled the wheel, give it a spin. Check for roughness...

    Heads

    Windsor heads and Romeo heads differ in a number of ways. With respect to the camshaft the the two biggest differences I can think of are that (a) the Romeo head uses ladder-style cam caps whereas the Windsor uses individual caps and (b) the Windsor uses pressed-on cam sprockets instead of the...

    Grinding Noise Under Passenger Seat

    OP, does the car have subframe connectors and/or seat brackets?

    Unbelievable

    This is a weird one. The engine and trans form what is, for all intents, a rigid body. Further, the shifter is mounted to the transmission itself so tilt or angles really shouldn't matter when it comes to shift effort. If the engine/trans are tilted a bit to the left, the shifter tilts a bit to...

    Camber Issues

    I'm not sure how camber has changed from just changing a ball joint. Can you be more specific as to what you actually did? Did you, for example, replace the entire lower control arm? Did you remove the upper shock mount or ... What was actually unbolted and/or removed in the work you did...

    Engine Engine Starts, Idles Fine But When I Push The Peddle It Dies.

    Take a few pics of the install, showing close-ups of the plenum, the MAF, the throttle body ... pretty much anything you touched. You say everything is attached, tightened and connected but that it ran fine before the swap so it would seem that something isn't attached, tightened or connected...

    Electrical Car Died On Highway - Ac / Electrical Issue

    It sort of sounds like you've got or had a couple of separate issues. The initial sudden death of the car on the highway -- voltmeter to zero, everything dead -- sounds like a catastrophic internal battery fault. Sometimes you see stories of people that drive their car to the store, come out a...

    Electrical Car Died On Highway - Ac / Electrical Issue

    I might be misreading things here but I don't believe the electrical system for the A/C compressor would be capable of drawing enough current from the car's electrics to cause a complete system brown-out and stall: The wiring gauge simply in the compressor coil and feedwires is simply too small...

    K And N Filter Question

    Keep the housing, remove the air snorkel/silencer and slap in a K&N 92013 filter from, say, American Muscle.

    Electrical Lighting up the stock grille on a '99 GT...PHOTOS PLEASE

    You're probably not getting the responses you want because this "mod" is not really on the radar of most 'Stangers. Honestly, this: looks really bad. But that's just my opinion and as well all know, opinions are like assholes: Everyone has one... If you really want to do this be a pioneer...
