    Need help diagnosing hesitation on 96 GT

    Video: https://cloud.binarydad.com/s/xkzaf3NZk9Dr79s It has brand new plugs, wires, and coil packs. Fuel filter is fairly new and the MAF and IAT sensors were cleaned with dielectric cleaner. Another symptom is, under WOT at lower RPM, it has a repetitive hesitation, almost like a misfire...

    Need help tracking down hesitation off idle and under load > 2K RPM on GT

    I've changed the coil packs, the plugs, and the wires, yet it still hesitates. You can sort of hear the hesitation off idle when I blip the throttle in the short video below (sounds like a "wum-WUM" instead "wuum", if I had to describe it). Also, under load, usually above 2-3K RPM, it will feel...

    Will 17" 96 Wheels Work On 07 Gt?

    My girlfriend is in a pinch and has a bent rim. Due to lack of money, I was going to give her my old stock 245/45R17 wheels and put them on her 07 GT. Will they just slip on or will there be issues with the offset? Thanks.

    Intermittent Sputtering Under Load

    I recently had a coolant leak that, as I was told by my mechanic, got down into the plug wires. They've replaced the plug wires, I've replaced the two coil-packs, yet still have an issue with the engine where, intermittently under load, it will have a consistent sputter. Almost like a misfire...

    Sputtering Under Load At Low Rpm (<2k)

    As the title says, under load and at low RPMs, there is a consistent sputter, almost like a misfire, that goes away at higher RPM. Idle is smooth. No codes thrown. Car is in the sig. Stock coil packs, stock injectors. Wires are new-ish. Plugs, not sure. Fuel filter is new. What should I start...

    Wow, It's Been A While...

    I haven't been on here in many years. Got married 8 years ago, finalizing a divorce as we speak, finally got the '96 cranked over this morning and looking forward to making some mods. Glad my SN login still works!! Good to be back!

    Car bra + Mach 1 chin spointer for 94-98 stang?

    I'm looking to get a black front bra for the stang. The front paint looks like **** and until I get the entire car repainted, I'll go with covering it. I do have a mach 1 chin spoiler on it and not sure how most car bras hook on the bottom. I'd like to keep the spoiler sticking out if possible...

    How much to paint entire car?

    I'm thinking of having my 96 repainted the same color, or close to it. I have no idea how much it would cost me or where to go. Is MAACO a reputable place to get a decent paint job? Roughly how much would a full paint job cost? Thanks! Ryan

    Random, high idle?

    My 96 GT has recently been having an issue where, with my foot OFF the gas, it would start to idle high. It does this about 3/4 of the time and it can idle high anywhere between 1200 to 2000 RPM, sometimes fluctuating in between. Sometimes it will go back down to around 800 on its own. Also...

    Options for redoing front seats?

    What options do I have for replacing my front seats? Can I buy "covers" for the leather? Do I have to buy new seat units? Or, should I just take it to an upholstery shop? What would average prices be for these? Thanks!

    Exhaust noise, normal?

    Since installing my catted X and getting the leak i had fixed where it met the catback, i'm still getting used to the new note. Aside from the intense drone, i hear what sounds like echoes from the ignition at WOT. almost like a non-hollow detonation sound, but consistent with the engine. it's...

    Options for seat recovering?

    I would like to repair my front leather seats. What are my options? Does the leather have the ability to be removed from the seats or do I have to buy new seats alltogether? Thanks.

    Car sputtering during bumps??

    Wow, it's been a while! :SNSign: This has recently started happening to me. I'll be driving along and hit a bump. All of a sudden the car sputters about 3-5 times; a feeling as if it's not getting ANY spark during each sputter. After that, it goes back to normal. It only does it during bumps...

    Lifetime of stock H?

    Man, I haven't posted here in a while... Anyway, I still have my stock (yes, that factory paperweight) on my car with over 130K miles. I need more incentive to change the idea of getting a new midpipe from a "want" to a "need", as I am paying off a bunch of things. So, how long do these...
