mustang wont throw a code; just wont idle properly, dies at stoplights, sputters during acceleration. Try cleaning it before replacement and check your engine+battery grounds.

i dont normally suggest tunes for OEM cars. In areas at higher elevation you can advance timing and pick up a few HP and/or MPG, but if you're anywhere near sea-level you're basically just throwing your money away. Dont mean to pull business from a forum vendor, just tossin' in my $0.02....

nice. name brand everywhere... if you ever need someone to send money to, I'll forward you my paypal... . ... LOL.

One beep, lasts about 1 second. BEEEEEEP.

Hiya everyone. Just snagged a 1997 Continental off Craigslist. My name is Chris and I'm from Denver, Colorado. I own a mustang (1996 GT) that I swapped a '04 cobra motor into (made 496 RWHP on the dyno; 491/491 on the street tune.) Anyways, saw this Lincoln and fell in love. 32v V8, air...
