Engine Performance problem
2001 Ford Mustang V8 Two Wheel Drive Manual 116000 miles
bought it used, started a misfire only with a load on the engine. not enough to send the check engine light on but u can hear it and feel the loss of horsepower. replaced the mass airflow sensor, plugs, and injectors. didnt fix it, it does this occasionally for however long it wants to.
