I'm a fucking moron.
While the exhaust shop was working on it ($140 that I don't have, by the way), it dawned on me.
I never installed the intake temperature sensor sending unit.

Where it's supposed to be, there is a mountin boss, but you will have to drill and tap it. And it's in one of the runners...
Or you can mount it somewhere in the air filter box or a hose...Builder/Owner of Badass Panther Wagons

I don't have an air filter box. I'll most likely mount it on the inlet between the filter and throttle body so I don't have to pull the manifold again.2011 Mustang GT Premium, MT82, Kona/Saddle, HIDs, 3.73s, 19s, hood/side stripes, UPR 1.5" springs with adjustable panhard bar, and UMI solid LCAs and relocation brackets.

My first one was simple, it was a stock for stock upgrade. Everything bolted on, no issues, ran perfect. This one has got a lot more motor and is causing issues, not too mention I'm fighting pre existing issues with the engine control, and now a trans on its way out. Also add in the 4K miles I put on it while using it as a daily driver, and the salt, and the DC driving. I did have a super clean wagon.....Builder/Owner of Badass Panther Wagons

My car was parked January 1 2005 and I drove it home from the shop barely running April 28 2005. I think the engine was actually in somewhere around April 15 but I caught it on fire, got that fixed, found out the transmission was cooked, so I had to deal with that before it was ready to go. My friend helped me with the trans install and we left at almost 5am. I was happier than a pig in shit, even tho the car was running absolutely like ass. I didn't care, I just was glad to have my baby done. Good timing too, because I drove the truck to work April 29 and the trans grenaded the rest of the way on my way in. I had to get my mommy to come get me. Don't worry mang, you'll get it. Its always right at the end where it seems to be most discouraging.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
