#2806 of 2847 Re: Has anyone heard of this problem with the 2005 mustang [akirby] by pdxshedevil Aug 04, 2009 (4:12 pm)
Replying to: akirby (Aug 04, 2009 11:50 am) I will let all of you know what Ford has to say as I just dropped the car off, and found out that the car was actually dying and restarting, I never knew an automatic could restart itself while driving down the road. Most of my cars have been OLD POS'S.   Thanks for your responses. Replies to this message: pdxshedevil (Aug 04, 2009 9:21 pm)

#2811 of 2847 ENGINE FAIL SAFE MODE by davestaines Aug 23, 2009 (5:44 pm)
Engine Fail Safe Mode comes on periodically. Recently car stalled 3 times - on expressway and local roads. This is dangerous! Anyone have the fix/ideas? Dave Replies to this message: akirby (Aug 24, 2009 6:16 am) eqalias (Sep 03, 2009 7:54 am)

Replying to: davestaines (Aug 23, 2009 5:44 pm) This usually indicates a cooling problem or bad sensor. Is it overheating? If you stop, turn it off and back on is it ok?
#2813 of 2847 ENGINE FAIL SAFE MODE by davestaines Aug 24, 2009 (11:55 am)
IS NOT OVERHEATING - IF A SENSOR, IS IT THE THROTTLE SENSOR - CAN JUST A SENSOR BE REPLACED OR IS IT AN ENTIRE THROTTLE PACKAGE, IF CAR STALLS IT IS EASY TO RE START Replies to this message: akirby (Aug 24, 2009 12:16 pm)

Replying to: davestaines (Aug 24, 2009 11:55 am) Geez - no need to SHOUT! If you'd read the owner's manual you'd know that fail-safe means the computer thinks the engine is overheating and is trying to prevent permanent damage. This means it's either overheating, in which case the temp builds slowly and takes awhile to return to normal after being shut off - or it's a false reading which usually corrects itself after the engine is turned off and back on.   Low coolant can cause a super high temp steam pocket which can give a false reading as can a bad temp sensor or wire. A bad thermostat can also do it but they're supposed to fail in the open position so it doesn't cause overheating.

Does anyone know if the 2010 mustang hood will fit on a 2007.I was thinking that I might change hoods because I'm not sure I like the scoop on my GT anymore.It's OK,but I really think the '10 looks alot better.Comments?
