Hello guys,
I just picked up my first mustang today.Its great...however it does have some tiny flaws.First thing...I found that the vehicle has a code p1443 which i believe to be a evap sensor code.I was told that this is very common and to just replace the sensor.Any input on this?

2nd-When i get on the car hard in 1st gear i can hear like a clunking/clanking noise.The car does have aftermarket exhaust...Flowmaster catback and BBK H-pipe.I found these components to be hitting the gas tank and frame respectivley...Anyone ever have this issue?I believe it is causing the noise

3rd-When driving at lower rpm's my clutch pedal shudders and makes a loud vibration noise.The vehicle had a recent clutch put in.I was told that the cable needed to be replaced.Im not 100% sure if i could just adjust the clutch cable or have to replace it or if its something entirely else?

Any input would greatly help me out.Thank You

Wow. My car has had all of those problems. ... The code is for the two sensors under the hood in the backon the passenger side of the engine compartment. Get your car on a drive on lift and work your exhaust so it's not hitting on anything. I backed my car and I hit some garbage in a parking lot and it bent my exhaust tip and it was hitting my axle. And the vibrating clutch pedel is usually fixed by getting a new cable. Mine just went away after dealing with it for about 2 months. If you're going to fix it, I suggest getting a new cable, firewall adjuster, and the new double hook quadrant. Steeda makes a nice set, but I hear you should go with the Ford clutch cable because Steeda's is crap.

I forgot what they were called. I'll try to dig up a receipt from Ford and give you the part numbers. I think the two of them were like $60.
