The car I have now, a 2021 GT/CS is special enough for me. At my age, I have not explored the limits of this car yet. It's more car than I need, and more fun than the roads around me will allow. I made it mine with unique and tasteful mods. I, like so many others, am not enamored by the S650...
Took it to the dealership this morning for safety recalls for the fuel pump and the bake fluid level. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the software updates don't screw up my car.
I use the UPR drain plug. It does have a tendency for it to come completely out when turning the valve, but if you hold it from turning then the valve will open. 2 changes on the drain plug. No issue with it leaking. It uses double O rings and a plug cap. It's nice that can control the flow...
It was 100 degrees today, so I decided to install an Evil Energy oil catch can. Took only 15 minutes to do, but my T shirt was soaked in sweat. Got a great deal on it on Amazon $65. Very well made with internal baffle. Greased the threads so I can get it open later. Also used teflon tape to seal...
Sounds like the car is in limp mode. Does your scanner read transmission codes? If it was a vacuum leak, clogged cat, misfire, it would throw a code. But you could have a transmission problem and the car went into limp mode.
American Muscle is not that bad. I purchased lots of stuff from them over the years. You can't blame them for issues with parts that they don't make. The only issue I have with their web site is it won't post a bad review. I bought Power Stop brake pads for my 2011, pads are junk by the way, and...

You're welcome. The kit is easy enough to install. I did it in less than hour. Once the tune is loaded, that A10 will shift as smooth as silk. No more jerky shifts. If you get on it, you will have very firm shifts but that is expected though when you're pushing it. I'm very happy I went with the...
I agree with you that a CAI is not needed. And a tune does not buy you much. Having said that, I installed the Ford Performance kit M-9603-M8B. The reason why is it tends to improve the A10 shifting. Which I can say it does for sure. Did I get a big boost in performance, somewhat. The low end...
Not today but this weekend, I changed the oil and filter. Castrol Edge 5W30 and Mobile 1 M1-212A filter. Never had the BBQ tick and still don't hear it. Car's at 20K miles. Also could not stand the left side tail light to deck lid misalignment any longer. Body panels and trim that don't line up...
I first fell in love with Mustangs when my older brother gifted me his 69 Mach 1 428CJ when he moved to Alaska. I know, wow, what a brother. But hold on the car's passenger side was wrecked. His girl side swiped a pole. I was 18 at the time and had no real money to speak of to get her repaired...
If you go and cut the loop and install a switch, I recommend you use shielded twisted pair cable. Ground the shield drain wire to the chassis. This will prevent any electrical noise from getting coupled in to the circuit.
While sitting at a Monro tire shop waiting for service, I read an eye opening article on the 10R80. The trans fluid plays a much more important role than the transmissions of the past. The precision needed for fluid level is real important and critical to the operation of the 10R80. The adaptive...
Don't think this was about one manufacturer over another. I believe it was about the filming. The Chevelle had a much larger interior than a Mustang and therefore you could see all the actors better including the ones in the back seats. Mustangs just don't have adult sized back seats as we all...
Ford's cheap leather strikes again! Yeah, that's an area on the seat that over time forms a crease and the leather just begins to fail. I have a very similar tear on my 2011 seats. My 2021 GT/CS has much softer leather and the easy in/out feature where the seat moves back when you turn the car...
I'm seeing more and more S650s on the street and there is one red GT with strips that has softened my opinion on the looks. Yeah I said it, I don't hate the look anymore. It's growing on me. The issue I still have is that Ford styled this new Mustang strangely, with bold angular shapes on the...
