    I recently bought a 1986 mustang Lx with the 2.3 Litre non turbo engine. I filled her up yesterday, drove 100 km and filled her up again today and she drank 26litres of fuel.

    “This is good,” I thought to myself about two minutes after swapping seats with my drive partner and settling in behind the wheel. “This is extremely good.” Ford’s brand-new High Performance Package for the 2020 EcoBoost  Mustang  makes this ponycar significantly more appealing than the...

    Okay so I have an 89 Mustang (with 2.3l) that I recently bought that has a transmission with (supposedly) around 50k miles that the guy I bought it from just put on it. A few months into using it as my daily driver, I noticed that it had started leaking ATF and started slipping when shifting. I...

    Hey everyone first post in this section but i'm looking at buying a 93 2.3 hatch.

    The idle on the car moves up and down and it is also high. about 1600 rps. If I turn the A/C on it goes down to about 1200 rpms. Also the check engine light is on. I tried to do the codes test and I got a 126 code which says online that it is a BP or MAP sensor is too high or too low. Any help...
