I've always used motorcraft on all my ford vehicles. Started way back when I had my 82 Bronco. First oil change I used an aftermarket filter had had a knock at start up which quickly went away as the engine warmed. Found out at the time that motorcraft had an anti drain back valve that kept the...

The CMCV system checked okay. I purchased a two dollar stethoscope from Harbor Freight over the weekend and it seems as if the driver's side cam phaser is the culprit. Think we'll just live with it for now as the tools needed to change the phasers cost around 300.00 plus parts. Arrgh!

After checking several Mustang web forums I found a suggestion that make sense to me from where I hear the tick. CMCV system. Seems these motors have baffles between the intake and the head controlled by a motor at the rear of the manifold. Will be checking this next as that is where the tap...

Well I unplugged each injector and the tick didn't change. Pulled the coils and all plugs are tight. Had access to a lift and listened while under car and the tick seemed to be coming from within the bell housing but then again from the topside it sounds like high up under the intake. This one...

Already had her add a can of SeaFoam waiting to hear from her on that. I also checked Youtube and heard the exact sound on a guy's F150. Someone suggested a spark plug that was loose allowing combustion pressure to blow by the plug. I had a plug blow out on my son's Lightning a few years ago not...

Daughter brought her 05 GT to me the other day for me to check her oil. The fuel jockey at the gas station told her she needed oil because of a ticking sound coming from the engine. I checked her oil and it was fine. The ticking sound seems to be coming from the front of the engine not from...

Daughter's mustang is having a speedometer issue. At times the speedometer will read over a hundred mph when going around thirty. This is an intermitent problem that is more prevelant when exiting or entering highways via the on/off ramps. Anyone here experiencing the same problems or have a...

Hello from Central New Jersey. I’m a die hard Ford man new to the forum. I’ve owned Fords all my life, my first car being a 64 ½ Mustang coupe. My kids followed in my footsteps, my son owning a Lincoln Town Car then a 96 Mustang GT before trading it on a Mercury Marauder and then an F150...
