    Ls running rough p0171,p0175

    I have 2001 ls v8, 118k miles; It started running rough after an extended period of idle (30 min). Originally I had code for cyl.7 missfire, I replaced the coil and that did nothing (I'm assuming that cyl. 7 was result from engine running rough). So I cleared the faults then P0171(bank 1 too...

    Transmission mount

    I'm having a hard time finding a replacement transmission mount for my 97mk 8. I've searched everywhere and can't seem to find one, Ford no longer sells one it's obsolete and auto parts stores don't even list a part number. Does anyone know where I can find one? The problem is that the trans...

    Quick question on a cylinder

    thanks for the link, but can one bad coil make the computer or the other coils mess up too so that the car feels like its hardly running at all? I had my foot to the floor and the car was sputtering and missing like it only ran on few cylinders and wouldn't go faster then 30mph. This only...

This happened before, I would be driving and the car would shut off, then I would try to start it then it would do nothing. Few minutes later it would start back up like nothing happened. BTW where are cam and crank...
