i was at my dads all weekend after the motor was done i set the idle at stock i cant think now like 695 and i set the t.p.s. at just under one volt but the cam is big not street legal and it kept killing the motor so i bumped the idle up to about 850 to 900 then the volts meeter broke so i dont know what the volts are at it weird if i mash the pedal down fast it wont go anyware but if you role in to it it has a lot of power weird i dont know if it has to do with the t.p.s.

We live right by you stang8u

My husband which is 95beaststang on here has a volt meter. You can come over and use it if you want. We are also starting to have meetings now to get this I.E chapter started. This last one @ IN n Out was alright. It will get better though we will make sure of it. Anyway keep in touch we live right off of Gilman springs rd.

I have one also but I live right around the corner from them. So I am sure one of us can help you. Do you have a check engine light on also? Did you clean your EGR out at all?
