What type of gas does a 2003 ford mustang gt take?

I just recently bought a 2003 ford mustang gt and the dealer said it took premium. However i read on the internet that it took regular unleaded. That would greatly help my wallet if it did. Anyone know? Thanks.What type of gas does a 2003 ford mustang gt take?According to your owners manual 87 octane (regular unleaded) is recommended for a Mustang GT (unless it has been modified)



Here is the link to download (free, courtesy of Fords website) the entire manual. It is in pdf format so it is easily saved to your computer for future reference.

(see page 178 for fuel recommendation info.)



I hope this helps.

I have one ,and put reg in it cause the other is too much mo ney, no problem in 3 years so far.What type of gas does a 2003 ford mustang gt take?Unless your car has a custom tuner or a custom chip then you should run exactly what the manual says, which is 87 octane. Anything more is a waste of money.
stock they only require 87 octane. I run 93 octane in mine, but I also have a supercharger. With that said, The Mach 1 and Cobra models do specify 91 octane or better, but the standard V6 and V8 GT models run fine on 87.What type of gas does a 2003 ford mustang gt take?Matt,



What the heck!



I have a motor with a similar engine, and it runs it socks off on any old fuel.



My boat runs on corn oil.



A Heli what I was wheeled around in once ran on parrafin.

It stank, but worked.

i don't know what dealer you bought it from but tell him to stick to selling cars and leave the rest of it to ppl that knows what they are talking about, if you have the owners manual it will tell you to use reg. unleaded 87 octane your car will actually not run as well on higher octane . the brain box is set for the lower octane and you will burn up your o2 censers faster with higher octane
It only needs regular. Call a Ford dealer and ask to talk to service manager. they will tell you.What type of gas does a 2003 ford mustang gt take?
unleaded
actually regular would work but, the premuim would work fine or even the 91octane would keep your car working fine for line an extra7 years your car parts and pistons will be better off with premum that is, best answer plz
if the prior owner used premium, use premium or you will have to flush the system to go back to regular. If you do go to regular you may hear a 'ping' sound when trying and may want to switch back to premium.
you can use unleaded, it wont really hurt the car, but over a long period of time stuff will build up in the engine (everyone else uses regular) premium would be for a $100k + car, to keep it in prime condition. but i guess if you are crazy about your car than go for premium, my best friend has an 07 gt v8 standard transmission and he uses regular.
UNLESS ITS KNOCKING WITH 89, YOU DO NOT NEED PREMIUM...I DRIVE A COBRA AND I'VE RUN ALRIGHT ON 89 OCTANE FOR AWHILE
regular unleaded is fine cars are made to run on it all
regular gas is fine. premium just helps any vehicle run better, and its cleaner and stuff. but regular is just fine.
depends on the engine. check with ford. if you don't have an 8 cylinder, then you just need regular stuff.

  • How much would it cost me to fix an automatic transmission on a 1995 Ford Windstar?

    They are selling a 95 Ford Windstar for $500. The outside looks ok and has 125,000 miles. The engine looks fine. There is a problem with the transmission. Assuming this is the only issue with this car, what's the price range for a transmission for this type of car? Give your estimate assuming it's something simple, and also your estimate for the worst case scenario. The vehicle itself will cost me only $500, so I'm trying to figure out if it's worth the trouble and $$$How much would it cost me to fix an automatic transmission on a 1995 Ford Windstar?about $2000 to rebuild the trans... and then you still only have a $1000 van.. and not a very good one at that.. I would pass.

    How may motor mounts does a 2000 Ford Winstar have?

    The shop says i need motor mounts for my van. They said only the rear one needs to be replaced. How many does a 2000 Ford Windstar have? I have to drive from Virginia to London Ontario and dont have the money for a $350.00 motor mount right now. Will it be safe for me to drive there and back?How may motor mounts does a 2000 Ford Winstar have?Probably 4. You'll be fine driving on bad motor mounts.How may motor mounts does a 2000 Ford Winstar have?3 on the motor, 1 on the trans. If you continue to operate the vehicle with a failed mount then you are placing undue stress on the other mounts and the drivetrain. As you accellerate from a stop the engine/trans. will twist and with a failed mount the engine/trans. can twist a-lot causing further damage. This is the old "pay me now or pay me lots more later" dilemma. $350.00 is rather extreme for an engine mount. Shop around, they are not a hard repair and I'm sure you could get a cheaper estimate. How may motor mounts does a 2000 Ford Winstar have?yep.

    Got a similar scratch on my swift sport....dont know how it happened.....i car park i think :(



    I have got most of the scratches out with some T-Cut scratch removal paste and the dents, I'll try a small suction pad to pull them out......I also think your being conned for that amount of cash!

  • What is everyones opinion on the new Ford Taurus?

    Just wondering what the ratings are on the new Ford Taurus and what everyone's opinions are on it.What is everyones opinion on the new Ford Taurus?I disagree with the answer above... i think it is not turning the family car into a sports car i just think it is combining the two. it is keeping the full sized sedan of a taurus but giving it a little power under the hood. with the SHO version that is. but this doesnt mean you have to get the 3.5L eco boost twin turbo version they still come in a 3.5 V6 version that i wouldnt call fast.... i think it is a great car. a good family car or grocery getter for the 3.5 v6 or the 3.5 eco boost v6. just if you want a little power the Twin Turbo is great.



    this will also give you all the info you will need on the car
