CHECK ENGINE LIGHT 03gt


alrights guys i have had this mustang for about 3 years. about a year ago the check engine light came up and i had gone to autozone to check da codes. the MAF and IAC had came up i had replaced them both and still nothingg. stayed the same. i had gotten a remote start viper alarm hooked up at best buy and the guy told me that cyclinder 6 was misfiring. got the coil replaced. but i havent checked the codes yet. around 3000 to 3500 rpm, i get somewhat like a jolt 3 times. pulls back and forth. its weird. only does this sometimes. when i take off fast it will not do this. the only upgrades this mustang has is a k&n cold air intake. PLZZ HELPP

had a mechanic look at it and he said there were no vaccum leaks. it doesnt have a rough idle. just those damn joltssss. (pull back and forth) dont know the hell it is. my father had told me that it could be the intake manifold cuz it plastic. but i would thing i would have a ugly idle.

My 03 does the same thing, but it's more noticeable in 3rd gear. I had a dealership tell me that I had a misfire on #7, but I never threw any codes at all. My car does it on a light acceleration. I'd be interested to find out if you ever solve your problem.

mine does it too but it was the fuel cut off on de-cel and was doing it. But mine was more mph than rpm speed. Did it are 40 to 30 on de-cel. I dont think mines a misfie though b/c it does do it everytime and it mostly on de-cel.
