1995 Mustang GT stalls and won't start
Hello everyone,
This is my first post at Mustang Works, so hopefully it goes well. A few months ago I bought my first Mustang (i've been a fan since I was 15 years old). Everything was fine for a few weeks, and then it started stalling. Sometimes it would restart, sometimes it wouldn't. I replaced the distributor and the stator/pickup in it. The car ran fine for 2 or 3 months. Now it is stalling again. I'm going to replacing the ignition coil and ignition module. Any other ideas/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. How common is this sort of trouble in an SN-95 Mustang? Thank you very much! |

Re: 1995 Mustang GT stalls and won't start
Yeah, a complete tune up should always be on the schedule when buying a stang, this will include the fuel filter, plugs, cap, rotor, etc..Who knows how many miles it went with out one from the previous owner...Throw a new set of plugs in there when you change the coil.

Re: 1995 Mustang GT stalls and won't start
I replaced the ignition coil and the car ran fine for a while.
This morning on the way to work it started acting like it was going to stall, so i drove back home and got my other car. It didn't actually stall, but i decided not to chance it. I'm going to replace the fuel filter today. The plugs and wires are new. The distributor is new. The cap and rotor are not new, but they look fine. I'll drive today after replacing the fuel filter and see if there are any issues. I may do the ignition module next. Is it hard to do? Thanks! |

Re: 1995 Mustang GT stalls and won't start
Ignition module wasn't the problem.
2 months ago i replaced the distributor and the ignition pickup sensor. Yesterday I replaced the cap and rotor. When I took the cap off, there was a ton of dirt in the distributor. I cleaned everything off, put on the new cap, and the car started. Hopefully the car will run fine now. After it runs well, i'm thinking 93 Cobra intake, 65mm throttle body, and maybe some new rocker arms. Thanks everyone! |
