Ford Mustang

Are you looking for a Ford Mustang?

Q: I am looking to sell a Ford Mustang but have no idea what an appropriate asking price might be?
The car is a 1989 Ford Mustang, LX Hatchback. H/O 5.OL, stick shift with all original parts. It has 131 000 Kms and has never been winter driven. It is not in mint condition but I would say it is in very good condition. It has been stored for the last two years. In the last three years, it passed as safety and an e-test. Anyone that could help would be much appreciated.

A: they sell for $2000-$4000 depending on miles and condition… OLD CARS PRICE GUIDE has it at 2200 to 4200

Q: How do you grease the ball joints on a 2000 Ford Mustang?
My car has been making some funny sounds lately. There is a brief moaning or honking noise coming from under the car when I accelerate from a stop. My husband said that the ball joints may need to be greased. If anyone has any other ideas as to what it might be, or knows how to locate and grease these joints on a 2000 Ford Mustang, it would be greatly appreciated.

Could dirty brake fluid cause this? When I took it down to get inspected a week ago they said the brake system should be flushed.

A: The factory ball joints on a Mustang do not have grease zerks so you can not top off the grease. That may not be the source of your noise anyway. Outer tie rod ends are a frequent source of such noise complaints on Ford vehicles. They don’t have grease fittings either.

And no, it is not dirty brake fluid that is causing this.

Q: How much should I expect to pay monthly for insurance on a 19 year old male driving a 1999 Ford Mustang V6?
I buying a 1999 Ford Mustang Base Automatic V6 as soon as I get my tax refund in this year. I live in Texas and have insurance on my current car which is a 1997 Ford Ranger XLT Automatic 4 Cylinder. I have been driving for 2 years and have had over 8 months ago. How much should I expect to pay monthly for insurance and who would you suggest I get my insurance service from?

A: I’m 19 too, been driving since I was 16 and not even a parking ticket. And still the lowest insurance I could get was 6000 a year, 03 honda civic. I tried every company you can think of for a quote, lowest one was Progressive. They are the best because they take in to account when you got your permit, not license. But i figured out it was best to just put myself on my moms policy. By doing that, my premium went from 6000 to 1200 a year. And it goes down for every additional year you have no accidents or moving violations. By the way, parking tickets DO NOT affect your insurance premium, only moving violations(speeding, red light, etc).

Q: How do i install a Convertible Top on my 2000 Ford Mustang?
My roof on my 2000 Ford mustang is starting to tear from the rear window area. How do i install a new roof? does anyone know the steps to installing the convertible top? do i need a roof with a window? or can i just buy the meterial, and use the same window?

A: It definitely is not a one person job. When you order a new top, it comes with directions, but it doesn’t always work out the way the instructions say. My hubby replaced our top and it is a bitch. Have fun. That’s all I can say.

Q: How do I pair my cell phone to blue tooth on my 2008 Ford Mustang?
I have a 2008 Ford Mustang with the bluetooth option. I can pair my device with other handsfree headsets. But I try to run it on my car and it dosent seem to find anything. I have also looked in the cars manual and found nothing. Please help!

A: you don’t. 08 mustang DOES NOT have sync as an option.

sync is available ONLY in the focus, fusion, taurus, taurus X, explorer, edge, and expedition this year.

your radio has a phone button, but that is only because ford uses a generic face for the head unit.

your sales professional should have let you know that up front, and i am sure if you contact them, they will tell you the same.

Q: Does anyone know that why ford mustang is not sold in europe?
There are millions of people who want to buy a ford mustang in europe and across the globe. Then why is ford not selling it around the world?

A: Uhgoo is right. Europeans have too high gas prices, and although the Mustang gets pretty good gas mileage for an American V8, it will not compete with the European econoboxes. I live in the UAE, and they export them to here, but gas is also about $1.70 a gallon, and there is alot of money here.

Q: What is the background of a 1979 Ford Mustang?
I am buying a 1979 Ford Mustang and i am wonder what it is like?
How did it run, what was it like in the shop, can i still find alot of the parts?

A: The 79 Mustang was the beginning of the new platform to replace the Mustang II Pinto based car. This was based on the Granada platform and offered the 302 V8 as an option. Since this car remained in production to 1994 most of the mechanical parts are easily obtained and the body parts are reasonably available.

Q: What are the different Ford Mustang types?
Ok There is a ford mustang then a Gt then a Shelby And a 500 Boss and a sherrod gt then there is also a cobra. What are the differences of all this, Why do some cost more than the other.

A: The major differences are in engine displacement and horsepower. In my opinion, all the different trims look similar.

Q: Why wont my power door lock actuators work in my 89 Ford Mustang?
Why wont my lock actuators work in my 89 Ford Mustang? All fuses are good, no listing for a relay and switchs all works. I bench tested both actuators and both work well. Any idea?

A: Ford power door lock actuators have an adjustment on them. The “nut” that holds the lock rod in place works loose and lets the shaft get out of adjustment. If the lock knob sticking out of the door panel bounces when you hit the lock button, this is the problem.

Q: How do i program a keyless remote alarm on my 2000 ford mustang?
does anyone know how to program a keyless remote alarm on my 2000 ford mustang? its the one that comes from the manufacturer with the lock/unlock/trunk option.

A: the above answer Is mostly correct, however,there are 2 important facts missing:

#1 flip the remotes over & make sure they have identicle part numbers on them, Not ALL Fords use the exact same remotes.

#2 You must program ALL existing (up to 4) remotes at the same time, or else you will “knock out” the codes of any other remotes not present.

Q: What is the best engine for a 1969 ford mustang gt?
Also i’m currently looking for a used or new 1971 ford mustang mach 1,

A: WHAT, a NEW 1971 Ford Mustang???? A Mach 1 at that? Am I to assume you are looking for one with one 7 miles on the odeometer… I’ve heard a few in existance. They exist but you’ll need to go fishing with very large bait to get a bite. Used are available depending on condition/price but you may need to truck it half way across the country.

As for the ‘69, the best engine is the same one that was in there when it was built, check the ID tag to get that information.

Q: Does anyone else have a Ford Mustang whose windows scratch the tint?
I have a 2005 Ford Mustang GT and my tint is scratched from the top to the bottom of the window. I bought it used and the tint was just a little scratched and it’s just gotten worse. Does anyone have the same problem, and if so, how did you fix it?

A: If you have aftermarket window tinting, you should carefully
take a sharp razor blade and remove a small strip of the
inside rubber weatherstripping where it rubs against the
window tint. My friend’s shop does this as a normal
procedure when customer’s have their windows tinted to
avoid this problem. The section of rubber cut away does
not contribute to leaking problems. It’s only there to clean
the inside of the window when there is condensation.

Q: What is the average price to repair a transmission on a 1994 Ford Mustang?
I’m looking a 1994 Ford Mustang. The ad says “Has Transmission Problems”. The car itself is pretty cheap but I’d like to know if it’s worth it with the cost of the repair.

A: Depending on the prob as little as a Hundred dollars to on average about $1400 If you live in Texas I could hook you for around 800 dollars. Common problem with those was a shudder while accelrating changing the fluid and filter should eliminate this problem if fluid is old.

Q: Which dual exhaust system is better for my 1998 ford mustang v6?
I have a 1998 ford mustang 3.8L and I was wondering which dual exhaust system to buy. I’ve looked at several brands but I haven’t bought it yet. I’m looking for a better sound and better horsepower.

A: Magnaflow is good . There will be more sound but horsepower on any exhaust is minimal.
