Most of the time MAF is the issue, give it a clean with a special electronics can cleaner and you'll be good, but some times mustang can have a lot of random issues including misfires from the plugs, also speaking of spark plugs make sure the cables are routed good and when I say routed good, just make sure cables don't touch any hot metal surface and don't let them touch each other. Last year I fixed an issue to a friend's sn95 it was backfiring too bad, so I noticed the cables of the right head were hanging all together right behind the alternator, so I separated with 4 ties and took em away form behind the alternator, and the idle changed completely and of course the mustang turned into a beast instantly 💪🏻😎

Ive been involved with these cars for the last 30 years, its ALWAYS a 50 cent part that goes out on these cars,you only realize that after you have spent 500 on parts, lol, funny thing,back in the day we never called them Foxbodies,Five Ohs were their main name,here recently i installed a brand new 347 on my 91,it was running like crap,driving me crazy and testing my patience,turned out the brand new regulator i had put on it i guess had been sitting on the shelf for a few years and it was stuck inside (the gauge indicated pressure was fine) took a vaccum pump to it and i guess that loosened it up, runs like a charm now. Several years ago on my 89, it would die with no warning all the time,when i would hit the brakes and i was listening to the radio it would cut out completely,about a month thru this ordeal i was working on it afterhours at my work and this guy was walking by and said "hey man, you car was arcing when you were trying to start it,i was like where?? back around the driver side of the engine he said,took a look and that ground strap that goes from the body to the head was green with verdigris and gunk,50 cents for a ground strap later and the car ran like a Rolex. I have worked on many cars and i have seen ground straps hanging loose dragging on the ground and the car had zero problems, these cars do not like broken ground straps AT ALL, also always check your hoses,vacuum leaks are the bane of the cars also,on both of my cars i have clamps everywhere and i mean everywhere, like you say,its always something simple.

Funniest one I did most recently was a 96’ v8 thunderbird. Stupid clean car inside and out, they wanted $400 cause it “needed a trans”. Bought it, came back with 5qts of trans fluid and drove it home and put a seal in the trans, they had let it sit for a long time and leaked most of the trans fluid out and when they tried to move it wouldn’t go in gear so they just posted it up with a bad trans.

Older guy in his mid 70’s was selling it. All it needed was a power steering pump, passenger window regulator, right rear cv/axle and differential carrier bushings. Paid $1,500 and then a week later I’m discussing upgrading the parts in the AOD at my buddies transmission shop. Why? 4th gear went out. There goes another $900😩

So I took it off and fired it up sounded different hit a lot quiker.. felt like I gained 20hp especially on the big end. My air/fuel ratio was ideal/rich.. and before it was barely ideal. That was an easy fix always do the easiest things first when troubleshooting.. time to invest in some K&N cleaner.. but I might steel Rodney’s/( 50tussin ) trick and run a boom tub out of the head light when I go to the track.. 💪🏻
