RE: How does your Mustang start?
Fuel filter is really easy. The filter is right in front of the gas tank facing the front of the car. Depressurize the system and use a ford fuel/ac line remover from your local auto store. Set of 6 sizes about $10.00. I unplug the harness from the fuel shut off(in trunk, left side, behind trim panel in corner), then either start the car and let it die, and also pree the pressure relief valve on the front right corner of the passenger fuel rail.
Plugs are also fairly simple in my opinion. I pull the fuel rails off(might as well since you'll be removing the fuel pressure anyway), take the boots off the plugs(coil on pack) and then remove the plugs.

RE: How does your Mustang start?
Mine starts up fine. Sometimes when I havn't started her up in a few days, it takes a bit of time. My cousin was starting the car one day and I guess he didn't hold it long enough? But it looked like the engine was striving for a second. Like it was trying to catch up. I don't know if it was his fault for not holding it, or something else.

the way these engines work, the computer has to determine where cylinder #1 is (or some reference point) and only after doing so does it allow a start. or something like that, but in can take a range of time to make the dertmination as the crank ain't spinning very fast.
