Low fuel pressure, failing MAP sensor, clogged air filter. Start with the cheap stuff - the filters.

my 1988 mustang gt convertible usually runs great but sometimes it idles up and down and will even die. the problem stops when i accelerate but will continue at cruising speed. sometimes it does not happen for days, then when it happens it can last for a few seconds up to a day. i have replaced the cap, rotor, plugs, wires, fuel filter and egr valve. it feels like a vacuum issue, but i do not think a vacuum issue would come and go like this. i am lost! please help 3 Answers

I'm trying to fix the heater in my 1966 Ford Mustang, and I read in an answer on here concerning the switches for the heater "Also all 3 of those control levers are hooked to cables. Look under the dash and check to make sure those cables are connected and not broken. Sometimes they stiffen up and break." If one of these (the one reading "heat") were broken, would it stop the heater from starting even though all the other parts are working? And if so, what solution is there to reaffix the switch to its respective cable? 1 Answer
