    Auto Trans slipping in 4th only on freeway

    I've got an 04 GT auto, it shifts perfect just driving around town, but when I'm on the freeway in 4th and give it a little gas, the traction control light comes on for a second and the transmission feels like its slipping, revs increase but no effect in speed, it almost feels like its trying to...

    What's it Worth? Is this 2000 Mustang with Mach 1 engine swap worth the price?

    I found a guy selling this project car. It's a 2000 Mustang with an '04 Mach 1 engine swap, with 136,000 miles on it. It needs new struts, which I can do fairly easily, and some other cosmetic work. All is sound with the vehicle mechanically, as far as I know. So, I ask, is this car worth the...

    Should it run with IAC unplugged? 04 gt

    I've been having surging issues for a couple of months now. I replaced my IAC and checked for vacume leaks and tested my TPS. The surge is only slight. Maybe 25-50 rpm when its warm and on a real cold start it surges quite a bit for about a minute before smoothing out. I've done a reset and I've...

After braking hard without stopping like entering a corner, the transmission let's go like it's in neutral and wont re-engage for a second or two, it will just rev up freely and then snap back...

    Forced Induction Prep

    Looking for a list of components I should beef up before installing a turbo or supercharger. i.e. top end kits, rotating assembly kits, and any links or specs on how big the pistons need to be, bore, dish/flat, size of cams, etc. Thank you.

    (video Included) Timing Chain Tensioner, Is This Normal Or No?

    Setting the timing on an 04 gt, before taking off the chains I set to tdc and marked chain at cam mark and the 6:00 mark on the crank. My chains had no visible links to differentiate but after the chains came off the 2 marks lined up at opposite ends so I felt confident in that. I also marked...
