I finally got a pony and its a mean one (2000 mustang GT) but it is having a couple problems. Considering the price I paid for it ($3600) I can't complain and the body is pretty clean so as long as it stays like that I feel I should keep it running right. I am sure that forums have been posted over and over again about similar problems so if you all can direct me to those forums or add some extra insight it would be great.
1. First off it feels like my transmission is slipping.
I added some transmission stop leak and it worked for about a day but now it feels like its slipping again. Should I add more?
2. I have a check engine light and when I took it to Autozone and it had 3 codes...
(1) P0113 - Intake air temperature (IAT) sensor circuit high input
(2) P0455 - EVAP large leak detected
(3) P0102 - MAP(Man absolute pressure)/BARO or MAF(Mass Air Flow)/VAF(Vane Air flow) sensor condition
I bought a new mass airflow sensor and installed it. Before I bought it when I stopped at a light the engine will rev by itself and I have to press the brake hard so I wont travel out into the middle of the street.
Now that doesn't happen but I still have a check engine light and the car seems like its about to cut off when I turn on the air conditioning; it idles roughly. I checked the entire engine compartment including the EVAP canister by spraying throttle body cleaner and there was no change in the engine that would indicate a leak. Is there another approach?
3. I have a mach 460 sound system and the sub-woofers in the back are missing along with the front amp located in the dash. If I get another front amp will it work without the bass speakers?
