I am having the same broblem with my 1995 mustang GT. Runs great for about 1 -2 mins then loses power. The accelleration is greatly diminished. I have a new distributor cap, plugs, wires and fuel filter. Any other ideas?

Both of you need to pull codes.

Can you still pull codes if the check engine light doesn't come on?

What do you mean nothing comes up "in" the computer? Also what are you referring to when you say "pip"? How are you pulling codes?

When was the last tune up and when was the last time the 02 sensors were changed?
