Had a guy yesterday tell me I had "one bad-ass Mustang dude!" Had two today tell me my car was gorgeous. One asked me if it was a Shelby? I said, "yeah, if they come with a V-6." LMAO. The other, while I was putting in the 89, asked me what year it was. Told him 07, his eyes got bit. He really liked the front spoiler, commented about it quite a bit. Something about having to be careful of driveways and such. I'm like, "yeah, hit it yesterday." LOL! First time for everything.
Anyhow, when I put that two gallons of 93 in yesterday, the ECM showed no codes. Within 40 miles, the check engine symbol was blinking and went solid. This morning, saw I needed 2.5 gallons of gas, so put in 2.5 gallons of 87. Drove over 100 miles today after doing that, multiple starts and stops, no codes. Decided to put in four gallons of 89 before heading home. Will try running 89 for awhile, see what happens. 89 is hard to come by here, most stations now serve 87 with ethanol, 87 without ethanol and 91. Only a few places still have 89. The place I get the 93 from has 90, but I don't think it'll work out well. His pumps are one nozzle pumps that mix the gas for the octane. So the 87 is straight, the 93 is straight, but the 90 is a 50/50 mix of both. Hence, if two gallons caused my car to have a blitz, what will seven do? Bwahaha
Name change? I have been here under the same name from day one. cbxer55. I've never changed it.
BYW, I don't know what exhaust this thing has, but I drove it with my hearing aid in tonight. This thing really talks to me. Both mufflers have a FORD symbol on them. But man, with my hearing aid in, they have a really nice sound. Did Ford offer some kind of performance exhaust for the V-6 Stangs? Maybe I'll just see if the local shop can stick some four inch tips on it and call it a day.
Four inch tips should go good with this thing. It'll be here next week some time.
