I was wondering if timing that hasnt been checked since the factory on an 77k miles 95 GT, could cause the car to run cold? The mustang is still running realllly slow and it is always running cold. </P>

i doubt it but try adjusting it anyway.it would not hurt to set your timing factory just has a set degree they put it to and thats it so tune on it.and get a higher temp thermostat.

Do you think the shop would check and correct for free since they made the mistake?
