Hi all, I have a 2014 Mustang GT that I bought in July. It has about 9100 miles on it. I took it out this morning and noticed it was running a bit rough out on the highway. It was shuddering/choppy when accelerating and backfiring when I let off of the accelerator. Turned around and took it...

Hey guys, A buddy of mine recently lost his home in the tri-state during hurricane sandy. Along with the house, his 66 mustang took on water. Needless to say, he's over it. Won't start, interior's shot, and he's done. He asked me if I could take it off his hands and I'm on the fence. A classic...

1996 Ford Mustang 4.6 liter manual transmission. My daughter filled up her tank and drove approximately 20 miles and the car used 1/4 tank! She doesn't speed and this is a stretch of road with no stops. No visible gas leak. The car we noticed started fouling out a spark plug and we smell the...

So I changed out my plugs lately and I noticed that 1 or 2 of my front end plugs had become gunked up with oil. The dealership where i get the $10 oil change deal has mentioned a leaky gasket before, but I feel like i am misfiring on a cylinder when trying to accelerate. Is there any connection...

I have a 96 Mustang V6 and for a while I've had "Cylinder 2 misifiring" issues. Today I went to autozone to have the CEL checked again and it gave me the error code, "Random misfire on all cylinders" (P0300...i think). I've replaced spark plugs, wires, ignition coil, Crankshaft Position Sensor...

Ok, so I recently replaced most of the gaskets on my 65 V8 after finding a blown head gasket. While the top end was apart for the first time in what i would assume to be years, i took the opportunity to give everything a good cleaning. Considering the rest of the car is falling apart thanks to...

Hi, this is my first post on this website, just so you know. I own a 96 Mustang V6 auto with 207,000 miles. For 8 months, my check engine light has been going on and off. The first few times it was a "cylinder 2 to misfire" error. So I replaced the spark plugs. Then a "cylinder 4 to misfire"...

I have a 66 mustang V8 289 that starts shaking when I hit 60mph but settles fine when I hit 70mph or higher. It is only from 60 - 70 that it starts shaking. Might it be one of the cylinders? Any suggestions as to how to fix it or what it might be? Thanks
