1988 Mustang Convertible Engine Malfunction

I have a maf conversion on my car without the vss signals or the fpm2 wires hooked into the computer. When the car goes into closed loop mode after warming it backfires and sputters for about a minute then goes back to normal but it seems to pull back the power compared to when cold. When I try to do a diagnostic test with the engine running with an actron scan tool the first part is a cylinder id which it can never accomplish I tried retarding timing advancing timing even put my foot on the gas but it never completes the cylinder id, it wants me to keep trying I don't know what the problem is please help me.

1993 Mustang Convertible Electrical & Lighting Systems Malfunction

I have a 1993 Ford Mustang LX Convertible. The turn signals suddenly stopped working. This happened after I accidentally hit the rear view mirror and it fell down. The brake lights and emergency flashers work. WE reconnected the rear view mirror (courtesy lights) and the turn signals still didn't work. We do not know which fuse is for the turn signals, but we checked all fuses and they appear to be ok. Do you have a diagram showing which each fuse is for? We then checked the bulbs and they were ok. Next we replaced the flasher and still no turn signals. Do you have any idea what the problem may be? I heard there may be a relay that operates the turn signals. Could this be the problem and where would I find this? I also read that some cars have 2 flashers one for turn signals and one for the emergency flashers. However we could only see one.
Your help would be greatly appreciated as I drive 77 miles one way to work and this is the only vehicle that gets good gas mileage.

My son has an 84 Mustang Convertible. He and a friend had custom built hydraulic hoses to replace the original leaking convertible top hoses. They put light weight motor oil in the system and now the top will go part way up or down and stop. If you wait about 1 min. it will move some more. If you continue this procedure after about 4 pauses, the top will be fully up or down. I told them that I would put the right oil in the system first and then begin trouble shooting the rest. What do you think?

My 95 mustang 3.8 was replaced with a used motor. now all the time it will barely even move once the rpms get up to 2500 the car will go but with a severe power loss. it has 65 k on the motor, compression is 160 in every cyl, an off road dual exhaust with flowmasters are installed, every sensor has been replaced along with the fuel injectors and it has a new computer. also i noticed the headers get cherry red and it back fires. even in nuetral the engines rrevs very slowly. the only thing i haven't checked is the timing but it starts up ok, 3 mechanics have not been able to help me, could the motor just jumped time by a tooth or 2? everything is new coil pack, cam sensor, there is no distibutor

289 Engine.

I have a problem with the battery getting charged. I have replaced the battery, alternator and the voltage regulator. If the battery is charged the engine will start and the car will run fine for as long as I want to drive it. After starting the engine 4 or 5 times the battery goes completely dead. I had the new battery tested and it came out just fine. The battery doesn't drain over time it just drains when the car is started alot because its not getting recharged. What could this possibly be? Could it have anything to do with the Relay for the starter?

Thanks for your help!

1996 Mustang Convertible Fuel System Won't Start

On my 96 Mustang convertible, I'm having a problem with it starting. I thought it was the fuel pump, but after some test, i know that is not the case. But i still think the engine isn't getting gas because i can start it with some spray liquid starter or when i add gas directly to the engine. After speaking with some people they think i have a clog in my line or i need to replace my fuel filter. How can i check for the clog in my line??? And where is the fuel filter located and how do i replace it??? Thank you in advance. . .

1996 Mustang Convertible Engine Vibration

Had been running fine. After sitting undriven for about 36 hours I started it up and notice a pronounced shaking as well as "check engine" light flashing. The "check engine" light has always been sometimes on and sometimes off, but this is a flashing. The shaking feels like the engine is not balanced. This was not occuring before. Oil was a bit low so I added a quart and shaking did not diminish.
Thank you.

1989 Mustang Convertible Engine Chugging

I'll be driving along, everything's fine, then I notice the oil pressure drops and the trans has trouble shifting into overdrive and it starts chugging. When I slow down to almost a rolling stop, oil pressure returns to normal.

I've done a tune up, changed trans filter and fluid, replaced the vacuum module, replaced the fuel filter, checked PCV and it's not clogged, checked for vacuum leaks- none found. I'm at a loss.

At times, it runs normally, then all of a sudden this problem starts; sometimes for a few miles sometimes just for a minute. It isn't a constant problem but it's getting worse.

Any advice? Could it be the B-Map sensor?

Thanks-

2000 Mustang Convertible Drive Train & Driveline Chugging

I believe it is the drive train that is responsible for the "chugging" effect. Here's what happens: After driving the car for a few minutes, the vehicle begins to "chug" or shake but only at speeds below 45mph. At 60mph it drives fine. I can minimize chugging by letting off of the accelerator, which drops it down a gear (I have an automatic transmission). Could it be my transmission?

1968 Mustang Convertible Chassis, Suspension & Steering Leaking

There is a pretty significant leak of power steering fluid that looks to be coming from my hydraulic control valve. I do not believe I have hit anything and the unit looks to only be a couple years old. It almost looks like a seal has blown.
Any suggestions on what may be the problem?

I recently purchased a 95 Mustang Conv. 5.0 automatic. The problem is I'm only getting between 200 & 220 miles per tank. I hooked it up to a Snap on computer w/ lab scope. Checked okay. I took to Ford Dealership & had them hook it up. They suggested replacing computer. I have replaced computer, timing chain, fuel pressure regulator, cleaned throttle body & injectors, replaced fuel pressure regulator. Still using alot of fuel. Do you have any idea what it could be. Also o2 sensor shows to be Okay. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry, I got disconnected. Back to my question. I recently installed a stoplight switch and now the lights sometimes stay on and I have to disconnect the switch to get them off. Sometimes messing with the brake and clutch pedals, the lights go off. Have I installed the switch wrong, and if so, what do I need to do to fix the problem?

1991 Mustang Convertible Engine Other

Engine is a 5.0. Just recently I have been adding radator fluid every so often with no visible leaks any where in the system. When starting the car it will run rough with white smoke coming out of the exhaust, after car warms up to normal there is no smoke or very little coming out of the exhaust, could I have blown the lower intake gasket what do you think.
