The mechanic told me that one of the cylinders was not firing and that I would need a new engine. That seemed a bit drastic to me. Could that be correct and is a new Engine the only solution? Is there anything I should ask them before getting a second opinion? Thanks (This post was edited by nmccauley on Jan 2, 2017, 10:30 PM) Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jan 3, 2017, 1:37 AM Post #2 of 3 (1170 views) Re: 2002 Ford Mustang GT - Cylinder wont fire Sign In That's not much info to go on to need a whole engine. What tests were done with what results? If nothing but what you posted you should seek better help to determine what to do - fix more likely if any care has been given to this car and engine over the years but never say never either, T Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Jan 3, 2017, 4:20 AM Post #3 of 3 (1164 views) Re: 2002 Ford Mustang GT - Cylinder wont fire Sign In That just totally depends on what the reason for the misfire is. If that cylinder has lost compression for some reason, then there is a very good chance the motor is pretty much trash. If it's a simple ignition or injector problem, that would be easily repaired. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.   Email This Post   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
