well before i go and buy all new stuff I'm gone check all the spark plugs and switch the wiring on those 2 cylinders with another 2 and see if i get the same code on the new cylinders.
You're headed down the right path!!!

Well I just cleared the codes and drive it again and now it gives me code p0300,P0301,P0305. So now I got 1 and 5 cylinder misfire.

It is either a fuel injector problem or the coil is going bad. You can pick up a NOID, for about $10, to verify the injector is getting the signal to fire. However, I would run a can of SEAFOAM through the fuel sytem to see if it's just a dirty fuel system. If you change the coil pack, screamin Demon is the way to GO!!!!

The car is at the shop now. I'm just waiting to hear what the damage is lol. Hope it's not something major. If all goes well ill have her in the hobby shop this weekend to start working on her since I can't do nothing at base housing.

If you need a place to work on the car, you can drop by the house and use the driveway...besides, I have better tools.

Well I got the call and the problem was a bad coil pack. I'll have the car in the morning. Now I need to look or a good place to get a windshield. Anyone got a good connection.

Thanks what parts you got. Cus he needs his shocks replaced. And his abs light won't go away not sure why. He is also interested in changing the exhaust. Let me no what you got.

ABS lights is on probably the sensor is dirty or needs to be replaced. Just clean it first and see if it turns the light off. Also, make sure the bolts are not lose on the sensor, that will cause the light to come on as well.

Thanks I just finished doing the shocks and struts install and I checks all the abs connections they all checked out and I still have the light on. I have it at the shop doin the alignment now. Might go down to chula vista to get the windshield replaced that way he can go back to base with no issues.

Yeah, if you're gonna have the stang worked on might as well change the sparks, wires, and the coil pack... Especially if the coil pack is stocked and the original.
