I signed up cause, I have a problem. The mustang dies at idle, it Revs up to keep running but eventually dies. It will stay running if I keep the RPMs up/ on the gas.
[/align]A little about my car:
[/align] -1997 SVT COBRA 48000 miles
[/align] -Underdrive pulleys
[/align] -CAI
[/align] -Bassani X pipe catless
[/align] -Flowmaster exhaust
[/align] -4.10 gears
[/align] -Older version superchip ( blue plug in) had it programed for these mods plus nitrous (extra fuel at 3500 RPM).
[/align]I no longer have NOS,and superchips says they do not reprogram the chip I have. I have check the battery and alternator ( both checked out). Next was to check fuel pressure.
[/align]NOTE: I don't get a chance to drive it much any more. 1500 miles last 2 years.
[/align]Any help, ideas, suggestions would be appreciated.

 

dirty maf? intake leak?

 

Clean your maf & clean your throttle body. If that don't work check for leaks.

 

U can use carb cleaner to check for intake leaks...

 

+1 i just use corrosive acid though.

 

thanks for thehelp,
I am working on the MAF, going to clean the air filter as well.

 

keep us updated... are you throwing a check engine light? If you are, get it checked, and let me know what codes it is throwing...

 

cleaned the MAF, it had some black junk on one of the prongs. Air filter is in the wheel-well, takes a little work to get it out. should I be concerned, looks like there is some corrosion

 

where is the corrosion?! also, are you throwing a check engine light???????
