Hello everyone I am new here but I do use this site often to find information. I recently bought a 1995 GT that was in rough condition and I have been fixing it up since. The car ran ok before but began to have problems before taking it apart (died twice putting it into reverse and wouldn't start back), I replaced the spark plugs,fuel filter, intake gasket, valve covers, deleted the smog, A/C and evap. The car ran fine for about 3 hours and all of a sudden it stopped running good.

1.) What mods have been made to the engine that a chip is required? Cylinder heads? larger injectors? different cam? different intake manifold?

I highly suggest that you read it and follow the instructions to dump the codes. http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/how-to-pull-codes-from-eec4.889006/
