Most common problems:

Oil leaks

V-shaped engines, such as the one in the 2022 Ford Mustang, can develop oil leaks at the valve covers, oil pan gasket, and rear main seal due to the complex sealing surfaces.

Timing chain issues

The 8-cylinder Ford engines might experience timing chain wear or tensioner issues, leading to rattling noises and potential engine damage if not addressed.

Spark plug fouling

High-performance engines like the one in the Mustang can suffer from spark plug fouling, which can cause misfires and reduced engine performance.

Cooling system problems

The V8 engine generates a lot of heat, and any issues with the cooling system, such as a failing water pump or radiator, can lead to overheating.

Fuel injector malfunction

The fuel injectors in the Ford Mustang V8 can sometimes clog or fail, resulting in poor fuel economy and engine performance issues.

Knocking or pinging

High-performance engines can experience knocking or pinging due to incorrect fuel octane levels or ignition timing issues, which can damage the engine if not corrected.

Exhaust manifold leaks

The exhaust manifold can develop cracks or leaks over time, leading to exhaust noise and potential engine performance issues.

Throttle body issues

The throttle body may become dirty or fail, causing poor throttle response and potential stalling problems.
