Mustang Cold Air Intake

Another little update on my on going project, I put on a cold air intake on my Mustang. It was a cheap upgrade and installation was insanely simple. It looks pretty good under the hood and not to mention there's a significant improvement in throttle response.

1998 Mustang GT High Idle Problem and Solution

On a nice spring day a little while back I was in my car with my sister dropping her off at my parents house when all of a sudden my car, which was stopped at a light, started idling at about 2,500 RPM's. I brought it to my garage and hoped it was only a fluke.

Next time I started the car it did the same thing. So I went online to see what the problem might be. I found it could be the Idle Air Control valve or the Throttle Position Sensor. I changed out the IAC valve and the problem remained.

98 GT Mustang Update

 In case you didn't know, I am restoring my 98 Mustang GT. Here's how it's going.

So if it wasn't one thing it was another. The clutch was put on wrong. The whole thing had to be taken apart and the clutch cable adjusted. Fun. Then there was a coolant leak. Turns out it was one of the plugs, but the best part was its location, it was in the back of the motor and the transmission had to be taken out to get to it, or you could partially take out the motor. More fun.

Afterwards I changed the oil, no problems. Then changed the spark plugs, ran into some trouble there.
