Ok ok allow me to rephrase that, with similar time, money, and products put into as the mustang, the probe could have dominated the mustang
And seeing an escort womp a enzo would be pretty funny.

At any rate...
I think the car is almost ready to be happy again...
Oil change, air filter, oil filter, redid the wiring that was shorting, cleaned up stuff and fixed some vac lines that were broken.

Next... Radiator flush, run a tank of gas, then a new fuel filter, brake flush (that fluid is worse then the engine oil... shudder)
Anything else i am missing for basic maintence, or stuff to get ready for smog??

Dont laugh,
There is a couple of escorts around here that will rival most mustangs on the street as well as an exp and some V8 converted foci.

What is this world coming to.lol
We deal with a lot of WRX's and bikes around these parts.
