I've got a 2004 Mach 1.

My car has never done this before, but tonight I put it in neutral at about 40MPH as I was approaching a red light and the car just randomly died on me. There were no trouble codes or anything. It started right back up on the first try. It did it once again when I pushed and held the clutch in at like 55 MPH as I was approaching a turn I was going to take. It never did that once before. I have a few bolt ons and a custom tune by James at RWTD, but the car has just never done this before. I had just finished washing the car, but on the way to the car wash it was all fine. I got home and pressed the clutch in again as I was slowing down to turn into my driveway and it stayed running as normal.

Do you guys think it's just a fluke?

NOTE: My buddy's '01 GT has done the same thing to him a few times. He has a few bolt ons and a custom tune as well. His did it once while I was with him as we were making a turn. I think his has just died in traffic too. The funny thing is, his started right back up and seemed to run just fine before and after it happened.


I did a search on this and found a few items but nothing that matched my exact issue. I know this is just a random issue with Mustangs since I've read about it on here and my buddy's has done it. My car only has 15,000 miles on it so I can't imagine the IAC being crapped out.

I know some Mach owners had trouble with stalling issues when they were installing certain CAI's. I would think that a dynotune from RWTD would have prevented any issues from whatever boltons you have installed though. I'd say contact them and see what they think, everything I've heard about the knowledge at RWTD has been positive.
