llllllllllllll Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Hi All I recently acquired an 93 mustang Gt. I don't know dick about these things and it runs like ass. I was hoping to get a few ideas of where to look. The mods it "supposedly" has done to it: Fresh Block & Heads Explorer? Intake ? E303 Cam A Vortek something or other supercharger Fuel system upgrades I think pump and regular ? Anyway it idles somewhat okay, but as soon as you go wot it will seem to make power for second then sounds terrible like its backfiring or some shit. Everything seems to come to a halt. I figure that is just needs tuned or something and someone here probably knows the answer off the top of their heads. Thanksss Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanksss Scott Ya know, for owning such a "fast" car you sure do seem to ask some stupid questions. I'm guessing this is your car, and you dont' even OWN a GTP... Will you just threaten someone so we can ban you already ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
93_ChargedCobra_342 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Is it a 93 or 88? But there is a good chance either way it needs tuned. Also if it an 88 has it been converted to mass air? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

93_ChargedCobra_342 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 if you dont have a wideband you may pull a plug just to see to see what may be going on and check the gap isnt too wide. any check engine lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stimmel1647545512 Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 It could be dirty mass air meter bad IAC bad TPS or fuel pump going out, but with a cam and supercharger it could aslo be in the tune...sounds like a nice car although it isnt running right....

llllllllllllll Posted December 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 This thing is a POS. I wish that I didnt' buy it at all now. I have had 2 people look at it and never figure it out. I guess thats what happens when you buy it "as is needs tune". total garbage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew2o2 Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Fresh block, you are truely ignorant of automobiles. A fresh block would suck. You want a well seasoned blocked thats gone thru many heat cycles. Whats next a turbo rotary with pistons that makes 1500hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jelloman4571647545499 Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 people his ass is trying to get help. Thats the reason for this forum. Just help the damn guy.
