    Engine Rough Idle

    When I start my car, it runs fine. As soon as I touch the gas, there is a misfire on the passenger side. Lasts until I turn the car off. It's a 2005 GT, mostly stock (Cai, tune). This just started. Fairly new spark plugs. What do you guys think it is?

    Engine P0012 Code In 05 Gt

    I get a P0012 DTC and my engine runs rough under load (it idles fine). I took it to a diagnostic specialist and he said I will need a new engine. He based this diagnosis because he has tried to fix 4 other cars and 3 of them have had a catastrophic engine failure soon after the repair. The...

    P0012

    My GT has 125,000 miles. Several months ago, my car would 'hesitate'. I changed spark plugs abd the fuel filter with no change. Then I started getting the P0012 code. I took it to a diagnostic guy who told me I would need a new engine. He told me if I replace all the timing components, it would...

    Has anyone fixed their own gauges?

    My stock tach, temp and volt gauges all died. The tach is completely dead, the other two read incorrectly-the amps point straight up and the temp at the 3 o'clock. Has anyone here changed their own stepper motors? I know there's a special tool required, but what tool? I have average...

    Interceptor Concept?

    Anybody know what's going on with this car? Ford's plan was to have it replace the Crown Vic in 2011. Any word?:shrug:

    The Dream Car Factory

    Anybody know what happened to The Dream Car Factory? I went to their website, and there's just some picture of an indy car there. I emailed them and never got a response. I want to buy their hood. Anyone got one they want to get rid of?

    New Guigiaro Mustang Concept

    I went to the LA Auto Show this weekend and saw that Guigiaro Mustang. I didn't really like it. It's small, kind of like that BMW roadster. The rear end of it was pretty plain. It lacked those muscle car lines that all the new American muscle cars have, like the current stang, the camaro and...

    Somebody Hit My Baby!

    Some dude T-boned me in a parking lot. He wasn't paying attention, but at least he has insurance. But my driver's side door doesn't open anymore.

    Modular Q

    So I gather from research that the term "Modular" refers to the parts on the engine being interchangable. First of all, am I understanding this correctly? If so, does that mean my Twin Screw Supercharger on my 4.6 fit on a 5.4 engine? :shrug:

    For those of you with tuners...

    One of the things I don't really like about the new cars is that when I rev the engine, the rev carries off rather than snap back to idle. You can't really throw a heavier spring on it like the old carbed cars. I know the programmers help with throttle response. Do they help with this? :flag:

    What do you think of this set up?

    I'm planning on building a motor in the next few months and I wanted some opinions. My plan is to build a 347 with a kenne bell S/C @ about 9 psi and AFR heads, amongst other mods. I'm set on running the S/C. Will these heads work out well with the KB S/C? Anybody have experience with this...
