The other day I got water in my gas. I got some HEET in it and it started running better once it got rolling, but now it won't even crank. When it did it would idle real low for a few seconds then even itself out and miss under 3 grand. My warrenty is out and even it it wasnt', my cats are gone so anybody out there know a possible fix so I don't have to fork out even more damn money to ford over this car...

 

first off, HOW THE F*CK DOES THAT HAPPEN lol. best thing to do is probably get all the gas out of the tank. then go fill it up with some 93 and try cranking it a few times. give it some gas too when u try to crank it. that would be my best guess.

if it was just a bad batch of gas i suggest u slap the gas station u got it from with the bill for the car.

 

how did you get water in your gas?
whats HEET?

 

i think its octane booster

 

Apparently the Shell staion I got it from had water in the 93 storage tank. Don't ask me how, but they did, thus it ended up in my tank. I've used this station several times without any problem. HEET is a water remover. All I know is I love my car, but I'm about sick of it. I've had nothing but problems out of it. First the rear end goes out, then the alternator, then a hole in my first gas tank, spark plugs decide to go out for no reason, just a bunch of bs. I've run it comepletely out 5 times and filled it up with 93 and it still hasn't gotten all the water out. The strainer in the gastank is keeping it from running all of it out, thus until I get moving it doesn't run right. Not only that, but my O2 sensors are reading steady with each other, not right, and I'm running extremely rich for no reason.

 

Does anybody have even the slightest bit of info?

 

Hey Rebel, if you don't mind gettinga message from a Bulldawg, is your car tuned for 93? Iam going to keep my car tuned for 87 because, with high gas prices these days, you are more likely to get water from the 93 tanks because people aren't buying it so much.

 

drop the tank and remove the gas your self or take it to ford......the cats have nothing to do with your warranty by the way

 

I'll say get it running and trade that thing...if you still in love with the stangs get the 2008...pass the headache to Ford..let them deal with your nightmares....although I did notice you have some good mods..still..trade it.

 

Best advice yet. If you can't do it yourself, take it to a reputable shop and it's not going to be that bad of a hit. Who tuned your car?
