The muffler shouldn't cause you a power loss
Just took video of the engine....
My convertible top issue....
do you know what the problem is? I think it has something to do with the tracks being off?
And the muffler has a loose baffle inside. Won't hurt anything. Probably a cheap knock off flow master. And is it worth keeping? You should have never bought a used Mustang if you didn't wanna spin some wrenches. That is all easy stuff.All good observations. Thanks for your help. Do you think this car is worth keeping?
I thought it looked like he had a pinion seal leak as previously mentioned. as far as the car being low on oil it may have had close to 3 qts in the crankcase as opposed to 1 qt (as mentioned ) I mean these motors dont only hold 5 qts , mine holds close to 7 qts so if they added 4 qts it could of had close to 3 qts. He said its not knocking, right ? I just am trying to accentuate the positive in case he cant get his mony back, which I dont think is gonna happen. I guess it depends whether this car is supposed to be a daily driver or not. If it is to be a daily driver things are more upside down but not completely out of hand .
Thanks man!stangvert gt,
hang in there buddy, youre not the first one something like this has happened to.
right on. it is a legal mess and the damn thing needs work to. time to ship it on back. i would call the seller and tell them you are going to the police, let them start offering to get it off your hands instead of you worrying about it.Your best bet would be to get out from under it immediately
ok... so he sold it to this douche and never signed the title himself? or was the car stolen? everything about this, including the owner you contacted, is just wrong. and if the guy that sold it to you never put his name on the title then it is a short sale too! i would have pd run the vin to see if it was ever reported stolen or recovered from a theft and sold for parts.I know the owner who's on the title. I saw his address and contacted him and told him about the forged name. He said he will help me with a legal title and bill of sale. That's not an issue. How do you roll the miles back to the right mileage and how do I know what that is? It's a nice car to go to waste.
