i just posted about my mustang being stolen.. and i need to know if there is a way i can get the car started even with the ignition being messed up, cuz i need to know if my motor is shot or not because the guys who stole it drove it without the electric fan on cuz they stole it and there was coolant all over even on the windshield and i changed the oil the day before it was stolen and it is close to black after the 50 miles they put on the car so im assuming they beat the hell out of my car. so if anyone could give me a hand or give directions to get it to start without doing a compression start also..

sorry about that.. i was on my vicadon when i wrote that..
im pretty much just asking for help..i need to know if there is i way i can start my car with the ignition being messed up, and without doing a compression start. because i dont know if my motor is bad or not from when it was stolen. when i got the car back the oil was close to black and it was changed the day before it was stolen. and the guys put around 55 miles without the electric fan on it, and there was no coolant in the radiator and it was all over the engine. so i need to see if the motor will run. i hope that is better, i pretty much just need help starting it

I could show you but its hard to explain online.

Under the steering wheel there is the plastic cover that has all the ingnition shit behind it. pull that off and to the left of the wheel on the oposite side of where the key would be insterted there is a plastic ignition switch with a wire harness on it. Pull that out and take a flat head screw driver put it in turn and it should start.

like I said its easier to show you than explain it. Best of luck.
