I completed my 302 / t5 , full wire harnes , fuel tank , fuel line swap in one month because of brew2l. Whatever bugs i had he covered and now I’m rolling . Thanks a lot
svtpower03 easiest to check is a computer mod (piggyback, etc), you need that to get it to idle like stock and run hard at 6000rpms. Ask the owner to change the computer engine size to 302 and watch it not start/stall.
Wow!! That sure brings back memories of my red ‘91 notch!! I remember spending hours when no one was around getting it to run like I wanted!! Really miss those days!!
You are a special person helping people with their foxbodies you explain right down to the details that why you channel to me is the best keep the video's coming thanks for them brother
I bought a 89 notch a little over a year ago and the car definitely needs work especially with idle control problems these videos are really going to help me out a lot! Thanks! I really appreciate these videos!
Really good and in depth video. To be honest I thought the iac was bad itself. You took it a step further. Good job man. I have said it over and over again. Best mustang channel on RUclips.
Those wires loose are a very rare find. Unless they've been previously removed I'd inspect the rest of the harness. A code dump would've found the problem quickly. Don't trust the factory tach. Usually off by a couple of hundred RPM. Get an advance timing light with a digital rpm readout. Thank me later. Also go over the grounds. It's always the first thing I do to a mustang that's been "touched". Keep it up my man 💪👌👊 great videos!
Thanks Brew2L had idle issues few weeks back watched ur video and did idle reset and found out iac was bad replaced it went thru steps again she's shittin n gettin again!!!
When doing a base idle reset you need to unplug the IAC, spout and tps. The reason for unplugging all of them is the ecu will still control the idle with any of those plugged up. Also fuel pressure needs to be 38-40 with the vaccum to the regulator unhooked when using stock or Ford racing injectors. And that bypass hose they had going from the air tube to the intake was a huge issue. But hopefully you got the wiring issues straightened out
Damn that pony sounds good!!! I have a 91 lx 5.0 hatchback that I've built up with my sons and it's a beast at 654rwhp. But I've done all I want to it but I just bought a 92 lx 5.0 notchback that we're wanting to stroke it to 347ci. But I've never stroked an engine before so I need to find someone that has the knowledge and is able to help us with the process.
Great video and kudos for the good guy help you’re giving to people in need. That’s awesome. Many doubting the 347/iron head stroker, but there is that after market harmonic balancer. I have GT40 3bar heads and intend to stroke the motor too. Sleeper stuff I suppose. But eventually add a turbo. Heads less Important to me in that scenario. Just my two cents.
Sometimes I look at my carburetor on my 89 and hate it and then when I see stuff like this I love it again lol. I have sniper efi on my 85 and probably going to put edelbrock proflow 4 efi on the 89 .
This video reminds me of my SN95(99) I picked up a couple days ago... "Makes 400hp" ... Bone Stock intake with half the serpentine belt missing and a 1pc custom hackjob welded exhaust
I think that's the nicest thing to ask.....how's that car running. I had a police officer ask me one time I still remember and appreciate that stuff.Thats an awesome coupe.
I can't count how many cars I have bought with "347 stroker engine's." Unless you have receipts or pictures I would never take it as truth. I had a 342 with iron Sr. heads but, I would say a stroker with stock 302 heads is unlikely, even the gt40 heads. But, you never know.
I doubt it. I mean why would you spend $1500+ on machine work, the kit and then put $100 explorer heads on it. I mean someone could have bought the short block and threw it together but who knows.
I agree. GT40'S are not the greatest. I'm running World Products Windsor Sr myself. Some of the best heads out. Plus I like the cast iron heads myself.
Great video with some great diagnostics work. My ‘85 Mustang Gt with an auto has been parked for about 15 years. I’m trying to get it back on the road but need a lot of info on those CIF cars. Was wondering if you or any of your followers had any info on modifications that can be done on this auto Mustangs.
Beautiful car ! I would just get a brand new management system for that car and be done with it ..Pro-m Racing sells a beautiful system comes with everything . take the old crap out and put brand new stuff in and never look back and it comes tuned right out of the box Check out late model restoration they have it
And one of the reasons I decided to purchase a bone stock survivor 89GT. Nice to buy one modded but then you deal with this sort of shit and keep chasing your tail not knowing what's been done to it. Stock untouched is the way to go and the way mine sits.
Mine has a plate that is between IAC with 2 adjustable screws and it works I have a radical cam and it idles smooth even with AC on doesn't idle up and down or cut off I believe LMR sells them.
I’m gunna go out on a limb and say that’s just a 306. Not to bash the guy but there’s no way someone is gunna build a 347 and choke it out with gt40 heads. Hopefully y’all get it figured out and get to enjoying the car!
Someone made a plate that goes in between iac and throttle body. You can find them on RUclips it's for a 347 stroker I can't remember the name because I need one! It has two adjustable screws I believe American muscle. Hope it helps. Sorry!🤔
That plate was an official Ford recall "fix", if you took your car to the dealer they'd put that on. I used to find them in the junkyard on all kinds of Fords.
Hey Brew what do u setting TPS what do u set ur volt meter on 2 check the tps settings! That is a beautiful notch it looks like a very clean car! Yeah Brew if u get a look up the 2019 let's make a wish boy had a heart transplant! So let's make a wish contacted American Muscle the boy was 17 the car was a 1983 V6 Mustang all he ask for was a paint job in a new top so American Muscle did work on the car brand new 2015 crate engine they put a 85-86 front end on it keep it a 4 eye they did so much work really good parts Maximum Motor sport complete k- member in Kooks headers & X pipe Dakota gauges but for like a 86 set up ! U can look it up it's on You Tube 2019 let make a wish well the boy wrecked the car with 335 miles on the motor all the parts the guy up here who I buy part's from he ended up with the car Mike's Ford Part's Colora, Maryland its on Facebook if u want to check the car out the whole ass end was twisted bad! I think it was way 2 much power for a 17 year old kid they could of built a 331 or 347 but they went the big modular motor! But check it out it's on You Tube 2019 let's make a wish 1983 Mustang build check it out if u get a chance 335 miles on the car in total it! He is selling the motor in the computer stuff for $6500 brand new motor it had Baer brakes around the way around the car it's crazy the guy who I get used parts from ended up with! Sorry so long man & what do u set ur volt meter at when u check ur TPS?
Frosty_Silver_Fox 91 they are the worst. Man I fucking hate them. Such a nice car. Just put s new set of oem headlights with clear corners and your good
I love one piece headlights. Beats having to buy shit 6 times, many legit styles and look fantastic. Every fox out here has pretty much runs 1pc lights. Let's be honest here... It sure beats watching someone order and install Euro's on their AMERICAN muscle car.
I'm having a problem with a 93 5.0 surges when stopping and occasionally goes dead when you're slowing down and push the clutch in, I've done everything
I had a similar issue with my 95 cobra. I replaced the cap and rotor, wires and plugs and that pretty much solved it. Not sure if you've checked yours but that was my issue. I was freaking out worried about my fuel pump or something serious when I should have started at the spark to begin with
Hey Man I had same exact issue with my e cam car. The car already had the iac adjuster on it. I adjusted on that and now it doesn’t stall when I’m using my ac in Atlanta heat! Lmr sells it and it actually works! Recommend it for you. No, the idle won’t be dead perfect but I don’t think they ever are once you put a cam in with stock computer set up. Good luck.
My small town was just invaded...by newer mustangs..1 91 the rest all new...buggers should have let us other mustang drivers know they were comming..we could have filled the walmart parking lot with all mustangs..
hey brew2l I had an issue with throttle body I got off my sons 93 lx it worked fine on his car but don't know how lol but on my car it did some crazy stuff it took me n some friends several months to find the problem I would love to give to u so u can show ur watchers...let me know.
What do you recommend for after market fuel management system for a modified 5.0 stroked 331 . Aluminium heads (AFR) 75mm tb super charger 40 lbs IJ . Had stock ecm chipped but still won’t run right.
I took out the mass air sensor in mine and cleaned the wires carefully with a tooth brush and mass air sensor cleaner and my car doubled in power! I had high idle and off idle power issue and it went away
Yea they run great.but when u start modifications they are the worst on idle😭.can't tell u how many times I wud be at the gas station an people checking my car out.I crank her up. An she Rev up an down.up an down an sometime die.so embarrassing 1993 canary yellow black top black interior Chrome ponies feature car with a supercharged 347 Stroker so sweet! O 20 years go.lol
dave dave probably need the plate with adjustable screws between IAC mine has a radical heavy hitting cam and it's smooth non rolling idle and with AC on is good I don't know who the manufacturer is but another poster mentioned the same part from LMR
You seam to have a lot of experience with these sbf’s, have you noticed any real world oil consumption issues after quite a few miles on these 347s? Building a motor now for my 67 mustang can’t decide to go 331 or short rod 347
11:47 they call that shot gunning a problem wear you just through parts at it in the aircraft industry, Maby they call that the same in the auto I don't know, but trouble shooters are born they not made home boy is a good troubleshooter.
I had a question about the lite green mustang in the back ground I want to know where those rims come from and what year those are or are they factory Ford I need a set for mine
Yeah I got hosed on my car. Dude said it had a cam and rockers and everything done to it. Everything was stock but a x pipe and rockers. (Idk y just rockers) anyways, I drove it about 200 miles or so and now it’s being rebuilt
I completed my 302 / t5 , full wire harnes , fuel tank , fuel line swap in one month because of brew2l. Whatever bugs i had he covered and now I’m rolling . Thanks a lot
Thanks brother, glad the videos helped 🙏
That's awesome! Tear those streets up!
Wow i needed someone like you about 15 yrs ago.
the 347 is nothing but nasty in these Foxbodys, very sharp ride! Nice of you to help a man out Brew2l! (🤝)
I agree! Love the 331/347 strokers in these cars 👌
Hopefully it really is a stroker. A lot of people sell these cars and say that but are full of crap. I wouldn’t put cast iron gt40 on a stroker motor.
svtpower03 easiest to check is a computer mod (piggyback, etc), you need that to get it to idle like stock and run hard at 6000rpms. Ask the owner to change the computer engine size to 302 and watch it not start/stall.
Crawford 347 Stroker motors were handing out A** whoopings back in the Day in South Florida.

dial back timing lights sux.
As simple as they should be, even expensive ones seem to be way off.
Mark your damper with a tape etc. read directly.
i would send my car and my checkbook to this man if he'd let me.. Wish someone like him were anywhere near me.. Love the vids..
Thanks Brew2L had idle issues few weeks back watched ur video and did idle reset and found out iac was bad replaced it went thru steps again she's shittin n gettin again!!!
I’m a simple man.
I see a brew2l upload, I hit the “like” button 👍🏻
I have a buddy going thru this issue, definitely gonna send him the link to this Video, thanks Brother!
Awesome diagnosising brother 💪
Side note. If that’s a bbk Fuel pressure regulator. Throw it out lol. Throw out the bbk intake too. 😂
When doing a base idle reset you need to unplug the IAC, spout and tps. The reason for unplugging all of them is the ecu will still control the idle with any of those plugged up. Also fuel pressure needs to be 38-40 with the vaccum to the regulator unhooked when using stock or Ford racing injectors. And that bypass hose they had going from the air tube to the intake was a huge issue. But hopefully you got the wiring issues straightened out

I'd love to see some mesh wheels with some lip and a 1/2" lower.
Clean car! I’m gonna start callin you the “foxbody whisperer” lol.
Lmao 😂
Nice lending you hand to this guy👍
Them one piece headlights tho...😷
You can reset computer quicker, just unplug batteries then turn on headlights and tap brake pedal. This drains capacitors and resets computer
Velly interesting
What a beautiful car. I can't wait for the follow up video.
Florida heck yeah! You known down south!
Love these trouble shoot fox vids . Keep up the good work . 😎 keep them rolling.
Sometimes I look at my carburetor on my 89 and hate it and then when I see stuff like this I love it again lol. I have sniper efi on my 85 and probably going to put edelbrock proflow 4 efi on the 89 .
A9L system is the best, tuneable, forgiving
Another thing 5L 's like is more fuel pressure than what base fP is called for.
