Okay,
This is my first thread on the site. So I will try to get the introduction right. My car is a 1995 Mustang GT (first car). The transmission got rebuilt 3 years ago, and the rebuild shop totalled it. So it sat behind the shop for 2 years and then I rebuilt it. It now has a full urethane saleen body kit, a fiberglass saleen s351 hood, and glamour turqouise paint, very fresh and very beautiful. Before I started the body work it still ran fine, but now when I start it, it runs fine, but as soon as I start to accelerate, it practically dies on me. Im not sure what to check or fix first. Can someone please give me some advice.
-Josh

Try cleaning your Mass Air Flow sensor with a q-tip. Be very gentle as you can damage the sensor. I think this is your problem, try it and check back with us.

Maybe a mod can move this to 94-95 tech

You could try cleaning the MAF sensor.

Start with retrieving the trouble codes. This can provide a direction to hunt for a fix.

Welcome to the boards and good luck.

BTW, where did you go? You last posted over 10 days ago. Oh, we need pics.
