Thanks for watching!

@@CarGuyV8 u forgot about the fuel pump issues, as they are common on these years.

How much you bought it for? I'm looking at one that costs $3600 with 52,700 miles

Just recently used the helicoil save a thread kit. It's been holding up so far. Read about the timesert after installing and would rather have gone with that. But so far the helicoil is holding up

@@stevenluevano1851 helicoil works best

You gotta make sure the engine is hot when you change the spark plugs

How much does that cost

@@thebrazydiamond4791 I got mine for $200 for both front and rear seats.

I've got the same thing but I'm not sure what motors in it

Just bought the car don't know much about it

@@terryfritze7029 if its a GT you have a 4.6 If you have a V6 (simple exhaust) its a 3.8(3.9 in 2004)

I am buying one Saturday 140k miles for 5k with some work done adding around 30 hp

The very reliable indestructible 4.6....also on crown vic...grand marquis.....04 40th anniversary is the 4.6 but the one that also came on the marauder 03/04

Clever

Oh man, redfire is probably my favorite new edge color.

No it will not........there not slow........but the single over head cam engine 4.6 is a low 14second car...........with some mods and gears it will run 13s

@@JohnDoe-xl1ig let’s all be real, all of these 4.6 mustangs were a joke. Imagine getting walked by things like Grand Prix gtps and Buick Regals.

@@JohnDoe-xl1ig Most of that era mustangs ran super super high 13s and low 14s when stock which is rather dismal. While the LS1 of the same year was making what? 350/360 actual hp&tq until they all came with an ls6 intake and then made 385 hp? Pretty much a given for any LS car of that era it’s easily able to run bottom 13s stock. Mustangs eh, they are patting eachother on the back for getting out of the 14s. It was Major hp difference in reality. GM was sneaksters back in the day lol. Many of the f body cars would put down almost what they were rated at the crank. GM underrated them to not outsell the c5 which had the exact same everything drivetrain wise and a more parasitic rear. But yes, the supercharged 3.8 GM stuffed into their grocery getters would be very likely to take the same year stangs lunch money. Not considering late 90s cobras on the lt1, if we’re gonna go that far you have to mention the lt4 which was also in 96&97 Camaros that made a shitload more torque and hp…not trying to get in a pissing match nor hating on mustangs but let’s just be real, these things were getting walked from the early 90s clear up until like 2015 lmao. It was not a good motor and didn’t respond at all to mods. You’re wrong, a heads cam intake LS will ALWAYS make over 450 to the tire. With the 4.6 shit you have expensive heads and cams and lay down less than an ls car with bolt ons. Its sad but true…I’m proud of ford though. I love they made a 7.3. Just waiting on a boss mustang tribute lol

@@JohnDoe-xl1ig the weight difference between mustangs and f body cars wasn’t very much. Pretty obvious when you can just google track times and curb weights and see the stock times posted up. Even the cobra was not very special. The best thing about it was you could just drop a pulley size and add boost. Other than that it was still the same crummy motor on the same crummy launching car. Almost ALL older forum posts I’ve ever seen was titled “can I beat an ls car” and most of the responses are a sad nope. Either way, I’ve tuned both platforms. 100% of the time the 4.6 just never responds well to about anything. Skip it all and go straight to boosted. Even then you’ll struggle to crack NA LS car territory. I did a heavy modded 2000gt on 10 psi a few years back and it made 410wheel. Lol.

@@JohnDoe-xl1ig 800 wheel is unachievable for any of those stock motor for very long. Actually probably never.. Once you go boosted the sky is the limit but the motor just won’t handle it. Pretty much all 4.6s besides the forged(I think it’s forged) 03/04 cobra motor tap the pistons ringlands and powdered rods out around 450ish wheel. I’d have to research the blown cobras limits. Probably 550-600ish wheel for something that wouldn’t be considered “borrowed time”. As stated, Procharged with 10 PSI on a cammed 2000 gt with all the goodies and it made 410 wheel. Was a lot of money and time Invested for essentially a car that was really lackluster. Sounded cool though lol.

I have a 03 GT convertible dark grey. I Love My Mustang too !

im looking at a 2000 GT v8 Automatic. W 5.00 a gallon (even tho my Acura is also same w 18 mpg) and it'll be for mostly weekend driving hot summers and cold winters all stock w 82,000 miles and askin 5,800. Thoughts if I can get it for 5gs??

@@the1der Yes 5k is an honest and fair offer. It is 22 yrs old remind seller. Only issue Ive ever had was with power windows, switches usually go first so make sure an mechanic doesnt try to get you to spring for electric motor also. Youll love that 2000

I’m looking at an 02 with 170k miles. It’s a v6 but it’s 4k even, fresh paint new lights and radio. Heavy considering it

@@dayeden3333 Yeah nice new paint and new radio that's nice but 4k?? Base 3.8 litre V6 eng same as mine .Ask him if he has any maintenance records you could see? In my area( upstate NY) Most 3.8 litre mustangs with that mileage avg around 2,500 unless it's a GT. Secondly make sure ALL power windows, etc work properly especially if one window is working hard to go up , you can usually heard it " dragging" so to speak. I had my engine re- built at 188 k, bad rings. Also check you're local market Google same type of mustangs in you're area and even look nationally and you'll get a much better idea of what you're willing to spend. Let me know if I can help.Send me you're area and I'll run a cross section of mustangs in the surrounding 50 miles, 100 miles etc.

Thank you!

Does water get on the coil packs with open hood scoop?

CarGuyV8 no I drilled small holes there are two sets of holes one set on the scoop and the other set is the indentation of a scoop under the hood scoop. I keep mystang GT clean all ways if it’s raining i don’t drive it but many times I got caught in the rain and I was concerned but it didn’t get on my coils

@@CarGuyV8 my 04 mach1 has a scoop😁

How’s it coming along?

It’s coming a long very slowly, she needed an oxygen sensor and sense then she’s running better and not using so much gas anymore

Yeah my TOB is noisy too...

Yeah, my TOB was squeeking on my 2003 GT. I hated the noise but I didn't want to change the TOB until I had to have the clutch done. 2 years later, the clutch finally went out. Had it all done and here it is 4 years later (25k miles later), and the TOB is starting to squeek again. Love the car though, so I won't get rid of it until it fully dies.

The cats are what's causing that, replace them and it goes away

I have an 02 I completely took out my cats just ran straight pipe to my mufflers.

Thanks for the compliment! All 2004+ 2V heads are 8 thread and all "Ford Racing" heads are 8 thread. For the 4V cars, a common misconception is that the "blue stripe" heads are 8 thread or whatever, this is wrong. The only 4V C heads that are 8 thread are the 05 Revision Aviator heads and the limited supply of OEM 05+ cores you could get from Ford back in the 2000s.

Let's not leave out my 04 mach1😁

In my opinion the 2004 Mustang GT is the best GT model. It has heads with more threads for the spark plugs so it’s less likely to shoot them out. But of course the 03-04 Terminators are the kings.

Wow! I bet your Mustang is a sight to see! Beautiful, you don't see many of those around in excellent condition anymore. Semper fi

Thanks! 315/35 275/40 if I remember correctly

Yeah I forgot to mention that.

@@CarGuyV8 I had a intake crack once in the winter on my 1998 GT. It has the plastic intake manifold. I replaced that did not have issue again.

$2 epoxy

99-04 seating is great. Im 5'9" and in the earlier sn95s 94-98 the seat doesnt go as far back and isnt great for tall drivers

Im the same height and i hated the seating position in my old 95 gt. Still had 3 SN95's over time though lol.

@@JamesC00 yeah lol i owned a newedge first and was surprised how much smaller the seating felt in the earlier ones lol

I’m 6’3” with a 03 GT and it’s not cramped or uncomfortable, just cozy I guess...

@@thomas6789 the newedge 99-04 seats go further back than the earlier sn95s I have a 97 gt and and only 5'9 and it still feels a little small to me in terms of seating position

I didn’t put these wheels on but the rear fenders are rolled a little.

Yes it still drives well. I drive it a few times a week and it doesn’t give me any issues.

Yeah they seem to going up in price these days. It’s hard to find clean ones anymore. Heck my friend is looking for one and it’s hard to find one as clean as mine for less than 6k.

I have a friend with a 3v that made a functional hood scoop and now water likes to get in and pool up on top of the back cylinders. No# 7 coil pack shorted out and so he was running on 7 cylinders for a little while. The Mach 1 shaker hood has a tight seal keeping water out.

They were on it when I bought the car. They’re 03 cobra rep wheels. I think they are on americanmuscle.com

17x10.5 and 17x9 I believe

**laughs in Southern accent**

17x10.5 in the rear. 17x9 in the front. 315/35/17 and 275/40/17

Wow, I didn’t know that about the driveshaft. That sucks

Or you could stop buying v6’s and get a real muscle car with a v8

@@GHETTORIGGAMINGOFFICIAL Been there, done that. I owned 4 V8 fbodys prior to this 14 V6. This V6 makes more power than my fbody's did, lmao. I suppose this is the part where you smart off that my lt1's were junk and slow; yeah no shit, that's why I bought my '14 V6 stang. And the V8 stang was twice the price so there's your answer for that. Nobody buys the V6 version because they like it more than the V8, they buy what they can afford. Come on my channel and get thousands of more poeople to sub and watch my videos and then I'll be able to afford it...

@@BuckeyeBallistics Foxbody 5.0 dont push more than 200 horsepower lol, even with bolts on itll make no more than 230 lol,

You’re welcome! You’ll like it a lot.

Mine doesn’t scrape very much.

Check your exhaust

Ride height is dependent on so many variables anyways, which is why i would say its less of a con and more something the guy doesnt like

4in for tire chains clearance

Yes these cars feel very weak below 3,000 rpms.

@@CarGuyV8 agreed. At highway speeds it does pretty well. But get up and go is oddly lacking

Gears are your friend. 4:10`s if your looking for quick acceleration from a stop but you'll loose that highway acceleration. 3:73's are the sweet spot for these cars and WAY better than stock.

That is a great price these days

Yes, if you get a good one that hasn’t been beat to death. I’ve been dailying a different GT for 4 months now.

About 153xxx

CarGuyV8 nice bro.

Yep I’ve had two of these cars that never had a sparkplug issue, and one that blew one out and damaged the threads. My brother has one that’s blown one out and damaged the threads too.

Actually I’m in Texas lol

@@CarGuyV8 Huntsville, TX here myself.

Yep same chassis and basically the same interior. I just picked up a 95 5.0 actually. It’s really nice.

@@CarGuyV8 just saw a 95 5.0 cobra with only 14k miles... what a dream

Still a fun and beautiful car to drive

Stock 87. I had a 93 tune on mine.

Yeah the type r will take these cars down. The si shouldn’t be a problem though

The 4.6s don’t have pushrods. It’s probably a bad exhaust leak, a dead cylinder, or it’s about to shoot a plug.

87 is what they call for b

Nope all of my lights are off. My cel is disabled though.

Honestly there are many better choices to learn on, but if you take it easy and be careful you shouldn’t have any trouble learning on one.

It’s called Dark Shadow Gray. Earlier years had a color called Mineral Gray that’s similar but actually looks even better imo.

@@CarGuyV8 oh alright. Thanks for responding

Water will get in and pool in some of the spark plug holes and might cause it to misfire. The mach1 hood and shaker scoop is the best way.

On the hood it’ll cause water to get in and fill up the spark plug holes in the head and possibly short out the coil packs.

It gets an average of 19 mpg. So $30 or less to fill up.

@@CarGuyV8 Are you in Cali? It costs me about 20 dollars to fill mine.

Texas. Premium is like $2.50 and I usually put in about 10-12 gallons.

@@CarGuyV8 Same here in Georgia. But the manual says to put in 87 octane? Isn’t lower octane better in winter?

@@CarGuyV8 thank you so much. I have to pull it out. what will happen to settings if i change battery?

@@CarGuyV8 should a good battery hold a charge since middle of oct? Is my alternator next? it is no big deal.

@@markdamstra hard to guess without knowing all the information. If it’s an old battery I wouldn’t be surprised if it went dead after months of sitting. Try charging it up and it might be fine.
