Looking for some advice.. I installed a 92 Thunderbird 5.0 (same as SN95 stuff to my knowledge) in my 87 Ranger with a T5Z. I had these vacuum lines plugged off for about 4000 miles. I finally got around to hooking them up as pictured, and now the truck likes to die when coming to a stop from...

I recently picked up a '96 Cobra with a nicely built bottom end, ported heads, Sean Hyland cams, and a Vortech SC. I can tell the car was set up to make very nice power, but at the moment it's got some issues. The first one I am trying to resolve is a crazy surging idle issue. The car will idle...

What's up everyone? I have a 90 LX Convertible and it has been giving me some issues since I bought it a few weeks back. Has smog pump delete and Cold Air Intake, other than those mods the car is stock. Timing has been set at 10BTDC and 14BTDC to no avail. The car is idling rough at about...

Hello all-- Recently went to a TFS setup on my 1994 GT but have this one persisting problem I'd like to get some feedback on before I throw money at the problem in hopes of it going away. Symptoms: Car does not want to stay running on a cold start. She'll turn over and fire just fine but as...

I recently started having a problem with my idle surging to around 3000 rpm and getting stuck there. i havent messed with the idle or anything recently and it doesnt happen all of the time. when i shut the car off and restart the idle will go back to normal. what could be causing this? i...

Okay, so I have this problem where when my car dies everytime I start it. It goes a little something like this: *insert key, crank, click click click click click click click click click ***** VROOOOM ****** (to like 1200 RPMS for like 2 seconds), then they go down (0 RPMS) and it just dies...

I have a IAC motor in excellent condition for sale. Works perfectly fine. I also recently cleaned it out with a rag & carb cleaner. $25 shipped

My 2000 GT has started acting fishy at the first startup of every day. Problem is that it misses, farts and struggles for about 10 seconds after startup. This only happens when it has been sitting overnight, and never if i drove it already that day. Upon startup the RPMs jump to 2 grand like...

So heres the deal, I had a rough idle and sometimes the car just would not drop in RPMs after inbetween shifts or when i would push in the clutch right away. I have literally replaced everything in the ignition and fuel system on this car hunting down several problems (some not related here.)...

So whats going on is some weird issues with bucking/jerking at low RPM, (minor) and more importantly, very little braking power. I'm only measureing 10 HG inches of mercury at idle (850 rpm) and about 15 at 3000rpm. 10 HG seems awfully low and I'm thinking it may be the cause of my problem...

The tune I received from brenspeed set the idle at 800 RPMs. I feel like that is too high and the cams did not sound that great so I put it at 700 RPMs and it sounds really good. I'm just wondering if a lower RPM is hurting the engine in any way. I tried to research this on here before...

I bought this 93 LX with the idle surging a few weeks ago. Previous owner says he remembered it surging sometime after he put this professional products throttle body on it, and looking at it, I see it doesnt have a hole like the stock one. Car ONLY surges when basically at a dead stop, at a...

I think this is an electrical problem, it could be a fuel problem. But its the weirdest thing when i come up to a stop light or stop. The car just jumps between idles rpms, it goes up and down up and down between 500-1500 rpms but eventually it will shut off. but if i hit the gas and rev it up...

Ive replaced my air charge temperature sensor, cleaned my throttle body and IAC as well as MAF sensor. the high idle occurs about 5 minutes into driving and is powerfull enough for my car to act as if its in cruise control, when i put my hand over the throttle body while it was running it killed...

I have a 97 cobra that had a few idle issues. Here is some info on the car. It has 78k miles. I tuned the motor with a SCT xcal2, and have a MAC CAI. The IMRC's were cleaned about 5000 miles ago. Plugs and wires about 10k miles ago. When the a/c compressor was running the idle would hang at...

ok just switched out a turbo set up and went back totally stock. pulled the tune chip out with ecm out of car and battery was 1st thing disconnected. now for some reason along with many other issues the idle wont stay the same and idles a bit high with clutch out and levels down with it in...

Ok guys, I got a problem w/ my 89 GT. Here's the details... 89 GT, was an AOD car, was swapped out to a Tremec 3550 before I got it. Still has the A9P computer in it. The A/C was removed and a Vortech S trim put in. MSD box/Distributor/Coil, AFR 185's, and a "supercharger" cam. The car...

just installed a trickflow stage 1 cam and it sound great and good power but when i start the car WARMED UP it wants to die and rpm dives to 500, i got to tap the gas for the first 30 sec or so then it surges from 1000 to 1500 and slowly goes down to 950(idle screw on t/b wont let me go lower)...
