#66 of 104 86 LX 4 cyl. replacement by mistang66 Jan 09, 2009 (9:30 am)
I have an 86 LX 4 cyl. (yes I know its a putt putt, but he is a cool putt putt) any way, I have had it since new and do not want to part with it (sentimental reasons) The original motor finally called it quits. I DO NOT want to replace it with another 4cyl. Sooo... the question is, is it possible to put in a better motor without having to change everything? I was told that i can get a bigger motor but it's cheaper to go out and buy a GT. I want to keep this one but i want it to rumble!!!!! Is it possible to do this with out making a big problem????
#67 of 104 Check Engine Light by ltstiff401 Jan 19, 2009 (2:33 pm)
I have a 92 Mustang GT. My check engine came on for the first time. I am the second owner and she has 215,000 miles. At times when I try to start the car it will start and sometimes it may not.

Has anyone had a problem with the car not starting periodically? I turned the car off and when I went to start it again, it wouldn't start. I had it looked at by a mechanic and they couldn't find anything wrong with it and said it might be in the security within the ignition? Help! Replies to this message: papasam1 (Feb 04, 2009 2:46 am)

Replying to: rader1 (Jan 30, 2009 10:44 am) relocate your coil or replace it. Some times they will act like that from getting to hot and the only thing in most cases is to move it and/or replace it and still move it. The guys working on it should test the coil after it has been running for a while. papasam
#71 of 104 idle sensor by snkeastburn Mar 03, 2009 (4:29 pm)
2001 mustang gt   Im having to replace my idle sensor about every three months. The problems I have when it starts to go bad is it wont idle or it will try to idle and just die. If i take a hammer and hit the sensor it will idle for a few more days and go back to not idling. Does anyone know what the problem might be and what I can do t fix it??   Thanks,   Steven

I am looking at a 97 Mustang with a 3.8 to but and it has a rough idle and has low power, it seems to want to stall when a load is put on it(Just idling). I was looking at it while it was running and the fan came on and the car almost stalled out. any suggestion on a fix to this so i can buy it!   Thanks for any answers KURT

#75 of 104 Re: Squealing noise [clgcoach6] by princess10 Apr 01, 2009 (8:09 am)
Replying to: clgcoach6 (Jul 01, 2008 2:39 pm) While I don't have an answer, I would like to add that my 99 mustang is doing the same thing. It squeals for days, and then as I'm about to take it in to have it looked at, the squealing stops. I waiting to see if it starts again. It only seems to squeal for a short time after I first start it, then kind of disappears as I'm driving.
