Default Need help with terminology...

Guys please take it easy on me because I'm new to not only having a Mustang but also to being able to get one worked on.

Can someone please explain what N/A or F/I is. I'm assuming that F/I means fuel injected?

Well...like I said. I'm learing. Would forced induction be in the way of a SuperCharger?

Yup, F/I usually refers to a supercharger or turbocharger of some sort. Unless you are talking to older guys, then it might mean fuel injected .

Yea forced injection & fuel injection terms can be mixed up pretty easy lol. Usually most people use F/I for forced injection and FI for fuel injection but not always.
