Hello, Guys,

I am wondering if someone could be so nice to take a quick screen capture of a Mustang 2005-2009 GT OBD2 sensors values at IDLE to compare it to mine.

After replacing the Manifold my idle goes up and down from 1500 to 2500 and it smells so bad as gasoline/plastic (and no leaks)

Thank you so much!

John

I finally figure it out, the OBD2 reading it says coolant temperature -40, so I followed the sensor cable and find out that was connected in the wrong way
