ive posted a ton of post about this cause i just cant figure it out, and im gettin like agrivated. My car is runnin like crap
Symtoms:
1. Car sputter alittle on take off.
2. Loss of power
3. exhaust makes alittle bit of a putter sound ( gets louder wen i get on it )

Some people has mentioned water in gas tank somehow ( dont no how but we had a rediculous rain storm on sunday which i didnt drive the car at all during and on monday this is wen i noticed it was runnin like crap... on saturday night i did a 180 in my street right b4 i parked it. Dont no if that could have disturbed anythin.

Im desperate for help.. I want my stang backkkk.. Thanks

 

If I thought it was water I would add the
appropriate amount of gas drier and run it
a lot to use up the gas. Add fresh premium($$$)
and see if that fixes it up.
Next is the MAF.
Then check wires at night.
Then change plugs.

 

The MAF would be one of the first things I would look at.You can clean it by using a spray electrical contact cleaner.Another would be a vacuum leak.You can try gas dryer but premium gas isn't needed for it to work.
You don't say whether the engine is warmed completly when this happens or if it only does it when the engine is cold.If the problem clears up when the engine is warm it could be nothing more than dirty injectors and intake valves.Short drives cause this due to gasoline deposits drying on the backs of the intake valves and the tips of the injectors everytime the engine is shut down.The detergents in the gas don't get a chance to clean the old deposits off before a new film of varnish is allowed to cook onto internal intake parts.These deposits build up over time until one day you start having problems.A long drive with some cleaner in the gas can go a long way to getting this gom out of your engine.

 

i think i found the problem... i pulled all coils packs.. pulled 4th pack last, and there was a puddle of water around the plug..in the middle of changin it now...... but how did it get there is what im still mad about

 

my friend had a problem like that and it was his catadalac converter... it was all in bits in the inside blocking somthing idk.. check it out

 

whats a catadalac converter?

 

lmfao....<---I really did too, I want you all to know that

 

Oh jesus. Alright you catalytic converter is something that is part of your car that helps it to pass smog. If it is damaged or clogged than your exhaust is not running as well as it should and you are having more backpressure than normal. If your car is a GT you should have 2 (I think the cobras only came with 4). They are pretty cheap to get replaced just go to a muffler shop and have them cut yours out and put in new ones and you should be okay.

 

ok, i no what a catalytic converteris. and lizard ya gts have 4. He totally butcherd the spelling, so i figured it was something little thing on the car ive never herd of...and having a problem with the catalytic converterwould have nothing to do with how water got into my engine bay.

 

um...catalytic convertors are not cheap...
