1996 Ford Mustang V8 Two Wheel Drive Manual
notice a hissing sound and low rough idle and when the a/c is turn on the idle goes up when the a/c clutch kicks on and goes back down when turn off. I have replaced the IAC valve and clean M.A.C. Ran ok for a day then went back to rough idle. Checked all hoses and sprayed carb cleaner and found no increase in idle around vaccum hoses. But did spray around head gasket and throttle both sides. But (top) passenger side area toward front the idle did go up as I sprayed that area! I think I have found the problem bad head gasket. Notice no oil in coolant and no odd color in motor oil. Just need to know that the head gasket is bad giving the reason the idle is rough? Do not want to keep buying parts that are not needed.
