    Starting Problem

    1931 when you say sometimes the starter is dead does it even crank once or slowly? Are the lights in the gauge cluster coming on and going out normally and do the gauges read when you turn the key on? The ground connection to the frame is a problem for a lot of cars so you should check it and...

    Drivers side Cat went bad...

    I have to agree also. It is not imposable I have seen cat problems with low miles before. If you feel confident in your tech and he feels that it is really a cat problem then it may be, but be sure that he has done a complete diag. Do you know what codes he found or any mode 6 data he may have...

    GT Production Numers by Year and Color

    I was lucky enough to work on car number 0004 and that was the first thing I noticed was that Ford GT gas cap. It's a nice detail to have on the car. Looks really good.

    Loose of Boost?

    Yes that was normal. If you red lined the car the pcm opened the supercharger bypass to reduce boost to a safer level for the really high rpm. The pcm decided that you turned the engine up a little high and need to help protect the motor. Once the rpm and boost level was back where it liked it...

    Ford dealer installed wrong oil

    Glad the dealer handled it without a problem. In a warm weather climate the 15w-50 would not be a problem and Mobil 1 is of course a quality oil, but I agree that it needs to be changed. I only use the 5w-50 in every Gt even though I have never had a owner ask what I was going to use. As far as...

    Ford dealer installed wrong oil

    I agree. Talk DIRECTLY with the tech first not just the service adviser and see what oil he put it. It may just be billed on the ticket wrong, but mistakes do happen. If he does a lot of GT work, and it sounds like that dealer does, I would be surprised that he would put in that oil, but you...

    Battery Woes...

    Glad it's getting worked out Bigs. The climate control module and power supply problems we're for '05 cars so sounds like you have a different problem. Good luck. Very interested in what it ends up being the cause.

    Local Dealer messed up lifting my car. How can I know what damage was done?

    Most general use two post lift pads will not work. I had to make my own to lift them and they work perfectly. It's the best way to do it. You must get the lift pads in the rear on the square section of frame in the belly pan opening only.

    New Ford Filter

    As long as it fits correctly and part number is right it's fine. Ford did change some of it's filters to a more "flame resistant" material due to some possible back fires on some model cars and trucks. The GT filter is used in other Ford cars that may have been one of the ones that needed the...

    Battery Woes...

    BigsGt what year is your car and what is your build date. There is a problem with early built cars where the climate control module will not go to sleep and will cause a good sized batt drain. There is an updated module for it. Also depending on your cars year there is an updated power supply...

    Local Dealer messed up lifting my car. How can I know what damage was done?

    I hate to see things like that. That's a real shame. Another way good GT techs get a bad name.
