Hey guys,
A friend of mine just bought a 1995 5 speed SC with 101k miles. There is about 40k on the engine, as it was replaced by Ford a couple years ago.
It is completely stock except for a K&N cone filter.
The problem is, when slowly pressing the accelerator pedal to the floor, it hits about 3/4 throttle and feels like it just lost 30hp.. It is not missfiring, and is more noticalbe at low engine rpms.
We have done the following already which did not fix the problem:
New throttle position sensor
Cleaned MAF wire element (possibility of oil on it from K&N filter)
Any suggestions?
It runs well, but isn't as powerful as it should be. We played around with another local SC'er in his stock '93 5 speed, and he walked away from us.
Either that or I'm just used to my 400hp SC..
Thanks,
Jeramie
