What is wrong with my 91 Mustang! Help!!!!

sodapop · 06-10-2000, 09:52 PM

My 91 4 cyinder Mustang died. I thought it was the battery, but I have been told it might be the alternater. Right before it died, the rpm gauge went up to the 8 even though my engine was not reving. The blinkers also went out. I had it jumped, but that only lasted a few mnutes. It then died while I was driving it! Any advice? Help! I am a girl. I don't know car stuff. Thanks

Could just be a bad ground.

Have the battery and alternator checked at any reputable parts place or garage (NOT a Ford dealer-they are WAY too expensive).

Sounds like you blew your electrical system, probaly from a short in a wire somewhere. You might need a new computer. Get a diagnostic done by a mecanic
