I have a 2015 pp GT and Indeed, having the right tools make the workload manageable. I have a two-post lift and a two-stage hydraulic transmission jack, cherry picker, tire changer and computer wheel balancer, lift tables for my motorcycles, milling machine and a tool room lathe, a large air compressor, wire feed welder and plasma cutter. But I have built this shop over many years with ageing in mind. My wife has all the health issues and is disabled since 1985. I am her care giver. I do understand poor health and the impact it has on each family. Have faith!

This happens to young and old alike. You’re just mortal like the rest of us. Heal up soon and get back to enjoying the Mustang life.

Every day is a good day, just some days are better than others….!
The GT-350 keeps me smiling, doesn’t matter if I’m driving it or taking it apart to look at “Things”
Wife always wants to know what I’m doing out there with that car….

I keep my wife in the loop of what I am doing to the car if it is performance parts her question is do you need to go faster? My response is Oh Hell Yes! I have always had a go-fast vehicle of some type. Wide ass open until you see God, Then brake!

My wife is an enthusiast. She makes her decisions about any sort of mods for her car. If she has questions, she asks. I am open with her about what I do to mine, and she's on-board.

Just bought another tool, I have been dealing with misfire issues without a real misfire after scans and plugs, coils updated tune I ordered a smoke machine to check for vacuum leaks.

So I went to the dermatologist in late March. They checked out my moles etc. and biopsied one on my chest. She also saw what I have been told since I was a kid was a birthmark on the arch of my left foot. I told her it had been looked at many times and was told it was nothing to worry about...it's just a birthmark. She took a pic of it and sent it off to have her partner look at it. 3 days later I get a call saying I'd better be safe than sorry and to come in and get it biopsied as well. 2 weeks later I get a call from her saying....there's good and bad news. The bad.....It's Melanoma....the good.....it hasn't spread. So since April 1st......3 surgeries.....one skin graft and I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO DRIVE MY MACh1 in almost 2 1/2 MONTHS!!! I got the stiches removed last week and should be able to walk without crutches June 15th! My wife's GT/CS convert is nice, but I miss the left foot thingy !!! :fingerscrossed:

Smoke test went well. No leaks in the system and it held 5LB pressure and never dropped. So now I ordered a new professional scan tool. It is a Mucar 892BT and it will diagnose 34+ modules. It will allow me to test each injector for flow rate power input, spark, VCT, any misfires and when and where they accrue. I could take the car to a shop and have them do a scan and pay them $200.00 to $300.00 and whatever it would cost to fix it after the scan. The tool cost me $479.00 and it has lifetime updates. If any of you ever wanted a quality scan tool, check this one out. Mucar 892BT. There are a ton of videos showing this in use by techs and they all have great reviews about this tool.
