Supercharger problems

white00GT · 02-13-2001, 06:14 PM

Has anyone heard of there being any problems with fuel pressure on the 2000 GT's on decel. For some reason when ever I am on decel for a while like coasting up to a light or stop sign, and I put the clutch in my car will just die. But if I tap the gas or don't let the car decel and I push the clutch in before I start to decel everything is fine. Could this be the by-pass valve sticking open and there being no fuel getting in the engine, or could it be that I have a fuel pressure drop when I am on decel. The car starts and runs fine, but I just can't figure out why it dies on decel. I have tried everything and can't figure it out. Any help would be great.
Thanks Monty

Hey, I own a 96 4.6l Cobra and I just had the same problem. My only seems to do it tough when I have my defroster on, my stereo up, and my lights on. However it does come very close to dying every time I decel also, like getting off the freeway. At any rate I have no idea what it is either. If you find out would you please post it for me, as I no longer have a warranty because there arnt any SVT dealerships around.

Any Ford place can work on Cobras. It doesn't have to be a SVT place.

It sounds like everybody is just as stumped as I am. I can say that it hasn't done it to me in a couple of days though so I have no idea what it could of been, or might still be. I'll keep you posted if I find out what is causing it.
