lost mpg and power help!
« on: May 06, 2008, 03:40:56 PM »
2002 Saleen Mustang s281-sc, 18k miles, poor gas mileage and lost power. Used to get 17-18mpg now only getting 12mpg or so. What could it be? How much should a dealer charge to diagnose it? Thank

The Ford house would have to hook up the analyzer to the computer in the car to see what is wrong.  Expect to pay anywhere from $75.00- $125.00 per hour for labor, then retail price of parts on top of that.
