I have a favor to ask. Back in 1998 someone took a five finger discount on my owner's manual when it was at the ford dealership for service.

Can any current owner of a 96 Mustang tell me what the owner's manual says for maintenance for 45000-50000 miles?


Thanks

without looking, me personally I would suggest fuel filter, oil and filter (of course), tranny flush and new fluid, rear end drain and new fluid. May want to inspect the coolant and check the fluid in there as well.

Dont forget muffler bearings and blinker fluid.

Change oil and replace filter.

inspect cooling system, hoses, clamps; and check coolent strength every 15000

adjust clutch by lifting pedal evry 5000

rotate tires and adjust air.

50,000

oil

Change coolant after 50,000. then change coolant every 30,000 miles.
