So far so good. Not temp issues. Car sounds and runs good. I’ve been checking oil and coolant levels frequently and after driving when I park it in garage I pop hood just to avoid heat soak I’m told. Thank you all who reached out. I’m glad the offered 2 yr / 10,000 mile warranty for anything...
Also they said compression test were all equal at 125psi. What are your thoughts for 100k miles on engine ? I did not get a compression test prior to purchase.
They’re offering 2year 10k Mile warranty. But no modding or voids it! And only serviced by them. They are really going above and beyond (considering) which is nice. I appreciate everyone
Also they’re going to reset the kam so it won’t read the prev incident. That way it won’t be pulling...
Ok.. so they had their best mustang mechanic work on it. He has a great reputation around area! (Should’ve had him do it in first place and not neighbor). He bled it and then refilled and with vacuum. He checked oil, spark plugs … no coolant. He checked compression of all 8 cylinders and they...
It was my neighbors fault. He is the mechanic that works at CLASSIC Ford and he was the one that drove it to and from work on both Monday and Tuesday. It was only Tuesday night that I drove it literally up to the top of my street and realize there was a problem. So it works in my favor legally...
So upset. The dealership is like. “Yea we will diagnose it, and make it right” when really it wasn’t filled in the cross member and he drove it for two days with almost no coolant getting to engine. Aluminum heads with overheated engine not good
I’ll be honest. I wasn’t looking at it. But I have driven it all week and would go out to garage to look at it and when I did last night it was hotter then it had been all week. I was upset and wasn’t thinking clearly. Sorry
I came home from work. Coolant was pretty much all over garage floor and empty reservoir. I’m not happy. The dealership is gonna be flatbed towing it tomorrow am. What is wrong with this? Ford service dept. seriously
I appreciate all your guys feedback. I regret taking it to them. They said bring up and they will fix. I already scheduled a dyno tune and look over with my one mechanic friend who did the whipple on my Roush and custom set up a few years back.
Hoping is ok
Make sense why hours later it was still so hot to touch I’ve had whippled 2v and it was never this hot after an afternoon cruise. I just went around my neighborhood last night and it was hot for hours after. Even this am I heard it gurgling near coolant cap. I opened to relieve pressure and put...
Help!!!!
So I just got the car back. I took it for a spin while in 3rd gear I go to open up and it bogs down and almost stalls. I drive slow first and second gear no problem. I got to speed up (not floor it) and it bogs down again. I talked to mechanic he said he just changed spark plugs, fuel...

Appreciate it. Got all fluids changed. Transmission, rear DIff. Oil. Fuel filter. New spark plugs. Took it to the local Ford dealer with the oldest mechanic and one I trust my neighbor to do it all. So that way it’s in system. Also he said this car was babied. Underneath looks great and I am...
I’ve had a 2004 whippled Roush , a 94 gt and a 98 cobra. Just bought a stock mostly 2004 cobra 101k miles
Great shape. Same owner last 18years for $24k.
My question ? what maintenance should I do with this car right up front.? I know a little bit about cars and small maintenance. Im
Taking it...
