I have a 2002 mustang v6 I just recently changed over from a auto to manual. Before I started the swap the car ran great except the transmission slipping. Now I have made the swap the car starts up rough and if you accelerate it backfires like a ak47
While working on your car have you ever wanted: to find an ODB2 operational PID value (say fuel pressure or MAF)? How about graph a PID value over time? Or compare multiple PID's over time? Access a bi-directional PCM control such as test a...

Obviously one of the questions here is "is this problem caused by the swap" or "induced into the engine as a result of the massive amount of work done".
Yes I reused the auto pcm I have a manual pcm to go in just haven’t took it up to ford to get reprogrammed yet and i pulled all the codes on my scanner and that was 3 transmission codes for the auto and 2 for the o2 sensors which I don’t run rear o2 cause I have long tube headers and the she codes cause with the long tube headers it deletes the egr hole on the header so I deleted the whole egr system and the car ran fine before the swap stock motor btw no mods
Hey Guys, I have a 2000 3.8 that is throwing a P0301 code. I have replaced the spark plugs and wires but it is still throwing the P0301 code. From my understanding, I have a few options. 1) replace the coil pack. 2) replace/clean the #1 fuel injector and 3) replace the computer chip (which...

Back firing can also be caused by a cam sensor "issue". The V6 is very picky about the cam sensor. What can "cause" an unstable cam sensor signal? A bad alternator diode.
To anyone else reading any of my posts I usually include the line: Today's cars simply will not run right without a strong battery and charging system! Cut corners here at your own risk I'm a big believer in starting with the basics. As such I...

The other thing that would be interesting to look at is what timing advance the PCM is using. I could see a case where the PCM is limiting advance because the PCM "thinks" it's still in park/neutral.
I’ll check my alternator tomorrow and see if that’s a issue and the wires are at 123564 that’s what I’ve seen I need to put them at I need that’s the only thing I took off when I replaced the trans cause I had to move the headers around to get it in and it was running right before we swapped it I changed out my coil pack no progress the cam sensors are original so I might be time to replace them
