|  If my car had a neck, I'd strangle it! OK, maybe not strangle it but she's really upsetting me! Beauty is a 99 GT and recently I'm having problems with her when it is chilly out side. While rolling to a stop (like 2 MPH when the engine temp is low) the tach will flucuate between 1 and .5 on the tach then she will die. This will happen up to 3 times everytime... I can only avoid it by reving while stopping. So some one tell me... WHATS WRONG WITH MY CAR?!?!?  ------------------ Jodi AKA PonyGirl Red 68 GT Fastback Black 99 GT Coupe "Not your average Mustangs..." |

| My 95 GT was doing that last week when it was a little colder at night. It's fine now. If it only happens when the car is cold, let it warm up  .------------------ White 1995 Mustang GT Dynomax Cat-Back, Offroad H-pipe, K&N Filters w/o Air Silencer My 1995 Mustang GT  |

| How full do you keep your tank when it's cold outside? It could be as simple as condensation in the fuel. It'd be worth putting in a .99 bottle of heat just to be sure. ------------------ 66 Tahoe Turquoise Coupe Laser Red 96GT Ragtop Both are slow but easy on the eyes! |

|  I was having a similar problem. In the mornings when I would start it and take off immediately I would have a slight idle problem/fear of stall. Just let it warm up for a minute, blip the gas once or twice to bring the idle down, and everything should be okay. ------------------ ************************ 1999 GT - Laser Red K&N, Steeda pulleys, Steeda strut tower brace & Tri-ax (Upcoming mods: subframes (bought), Bassani X (next), & FMS 3.73s |
