I bought a SR cold air intake from American Muscle 3 years ago. The piece of sheet metal that holds the tube p and separates the filter from the engine compartment has quite a bit of rust on it. I asked a shop and they said that happens with some cold air intakes that are "Cheaper" as he put it...

Well i did the math with this past tank of gas. I got 14.5 MPG, alot better than before. I guess the seafoam worked.:D

Headers and exhaust. Cold air intake and larger throttle body. When was the last time you had a tune up? You might want to do one if it has been a while.

Have you done the filter and fluid?

Ebay has one alittle cheaper, not much though. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/mustang-99-04-windshield-cowl-vent-cover-fiberglass-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQfitsZModelQ3aMustangQQhashZitem3a661e8ee5QQitemZ250821381861QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories

wmburns: it is not giving any codes. The mechanic is the one who flushed the system so i don't know what he did. robb15033:I wwill change the fuel filter again and see if that helps and check my plugs.

The t-stat was my first thought to, so i changed it last year. no difference. I have cleaned the MAF but not the throttle body, i will try that. Thanks for the help to everyone who has posted

Today i seafoamed the car. I put 1/3 in the pcv line, 1/3 in the oil and 1/3 in the gas tank. It did not give alot of smoke like i saw in videos that i watched, only while i was putting it in the pcv line. Th car runs the same as before. Did i not use enough? Another thing noticed is that a...

Do you have voltage at the connector going to the motor?

I was reading some articles and they say "1/3 can in vacuum line and rest in gas". Is 1 can in each the correct amount?

Would the 02 sensors make the mpg that bad? The tubes all seemed fine. I never did the seafoam treatment... I would be alittle nervous putting it in the pcv seeing as i never did it. Could this help the hard start and MPG?

It is an after market cold air intake, everything is sealed and tight. Even before the CAI was installed the mileage was terrible. Since i put it on and did the tune up the gas mileage has improved, but not much.

Could it be a bad 02 sensor? I thought a bad 02 will send a code.

Car seems to idle fine, no problem with acceleration. The plugs are good i just changed them and the plugs before them looked almost brand new. There are no lights on. What is the correct gap for the plugs? I believe i gaped them .52 but cant really remember. How do you check cylinder...

Forgot to mention that i cleaned the MAF too, and yes i used the correct product.

My girlfriends has the same thing. I asked my mechanic about it and he said it sounded like a valve tap but was not sure.

My Girlfriends 2000 3.8 is having a couple problems... It starts hard almost every time. It is getting about 9MPG... This car has been doing this since we bought it a year and a half ago. After doing some research it lead me to the coil pack. I tested the coil primary terminals and got 1 OHM of...

Its under dash fuse block.The fuses actually push the wires out of the back of the fuse block. When i took the cover off there were small pieces falling out of the box, so i think cleaning wont help. That site was great Thanks For the info.

I have a 2000 3.8. One of my headlights does not work. I jumped it out to get it to work. I know the problem is in the fuse block. When i touch it the locks go nuts, then i have to keep playing with it to get them to work fine. My mechanic told me the whole block needs to be replaced (I know...

The filter on this kit is right above the wheel well, inside the fender. I threw out the old air box so that option is out.
