Hey guys i just picked up a 95 GT, im familiar with mustangs used to have a 89GT for about 5 years. Everything runs great, but i have one minor issue, it bogs on a cold start when i take off in 1st gear. Once its warmed up, runs great. I ran the ecu for codes, everything passes with all 3 tests. I did a full tune-up, cleaned the iac, checked the TP voltage (.92), replaced the ECT and ACT sensors, reset the computer, and still have the problem. Did anyone have a similar problem? Any help is highly appreciated.
