Well first of thanx for responding, my mustang in the morning when I start it, it doesn't idle @ all, I have to keep giving it gas like its a fucking carberator, when it gets all warmed up then it begins to like surge and and cut off and idles very poor. It also smells like gas all through out the car, I really have no idea where to start, I took it to the shop on thursday and they told me that I had codes# 67 clutch swithc circuit failure, code#29 open vehicle speed sensor circuit, code#32 egr signal is too low, code#41 EGO not switching, lean exhaust, code#91 o2 sensors not switching, circuit fault, code#95 fuel pump circuit open, and on top of that I guess my typhoon intake vacuum lines are all hooked up backwards and the crankcase vent in the bak of the block is open, I asked the shop to fix all that and they said they want $3,000. I almost had a heart attack, so I'm looking for a mechanic that knows there way around mustangs or something

wow,,at 1st im thinking idol air control. and there isnt very many vacume lines goin to the intake,1 goes to the break booster tree,one goes the pcv,1 goes to the feul pressure regulator, and 1 goes to the soleniod that the egr vacume line hooks to on your passanger fender,and there is one coming out of your wiring harness right in front,runs behind the alt., that needs to be pluged in to the intake.sometimes if one,or two things are not working right ,it can cause other sensors to read wrong causing codes.good luck
