I just had the new Haynes manual delivered I found for cheap on ebay. I'm really liking it and the online content that comes with it. But I'll check your suggestion out for sure!

Looks like this is the way!

I need to do the head gasket on my 2.3l. What would be the best service to go with for the repair? I have used Haynes in the past. But is there a better online option? I've not found the Ford service manual. If anyone knows where to find that. I'll happily buy into it.

Ya, no sign of coolant in the oil. The only thing I think that is also happening. Is the water pump weep hole is leaking. So that will get replaced when everything gets tore down. But I think I'll try to just replace the head gasket and go from there. If I have to replace the motor. Hopefully...

It hasn't overheated at all yet. It only had a low coolant alert one time. When I was driving it around town to. It had no serious issues besides the misfire on cylinder 1. But I noticed the coolant system was overpressured. So I did the exhaust gas test on the coolant reservoir and bingo it...

I have never replaced a motor before. So that would be a big step for me in learning. I've fixed a few mustangs in my time. But have not done a full engine swap before. It would be a big undertaking for me.

I recently picked up a ecoboost mustang and confirmed that I have a bad head gasket with a combustion test on the coolant reservoir. What would you guys do? Try repairing the head gasket or just buying a remanufactured engine core? I bought this car as something that I can tool and learn on. I...

You must be hearing something, I don't, Sounds fine to me. Fixed that for you.

Great find on the chassis number. Very jealous.

Sounds like my motor sometimes. I don't think its a tick. More like the cam lifters sound.

I just signed the 2015 mustang I bought up for Progressive. Only 96$ for a 10 year old ecoboost a month with full coverage.

I'm going to buy the car. I started sending the owner the money. I'm limited by zelle daily limits. But if it turns out I don't want it. I'll just sell it to a dealership. I'm getting it below KBB trade in value. And after getting pictures of the oil, oil cap and coolant reservoir. I feel like...

That's what I'm saying! It was hit and run. So theres a broken snap for the rear bumper cover and a little scuff. But that's the only thing wrong with the exterior. The convertible top is in good shape too. and the interior, the driver seat fried out. so no heating and cooling on that seat...

That's the thing. I'd have to buy it without getting it to a repair shop first. I have to have it transported too. She doesn't think I should drive it back home till its repaired. So I have to do all of this after I get the car up here. I have a master tech for a friend with a home garage. That...

She did tell me that the code went away and the repair shop was unable to confirm what was wrong. After she had a purge valve replaced. So it isn't a constant code. I just wonder what it is. Also, she complained about lost coolant in the reservoir. And i wonder if the cap has blow by. I'm...

That's exactly how I felt about it. Plus its a convertible! I just now have to hope some other person coming by to see it won't offer more than me. But I won't be crying if they sell it to another person.

They said when they took it to a garage that they couldn't confirm what exactly the problem was. I would do this myself when I get the car. But there's minimal information about the cars current state. Yes, I know if the motor was blown it would be a big repair bill. But its currently driving...

No sir. That's just the typical sound we get with the plastic oil pan. I have this similar sound with no issues for 7 years now.

Hi All, I have a friend that I helped buy a Mustang many year ago. Who just told me they are planning on getting rid of the car. Because they are having a misfire issue with the engine. I believe that I can fix this myself as long as the engine block isn't warped. I want to buy the car off of...

I doubt I will ever sell my Mustang. Ride it till its dead or I can't afford to fix it.
