Mach 1 Mustang. Throwing codes with only 10,000 miles. This car is garage kept. Still its driven but not like a daily driver.

Code 182
I changed the fuel pressure sensor with Ford OE part.

code 182 points to fuel temp sensor?
Cant find this sensor.

172 and 175 I thought would be coming from fuel pressure sensor not acting right.

172 and 175 is running rich on banks 1 and 2 which would lean me to possibly fuel pressure regulator. Check vacuum hose to it and see if there is gas in it, that would be a tell tale sign its bad.

If I remember correctly, your engine doesn't have a fuel regulator, it has a pressure transducer. It should be located on the injector rail. It's a small box about 1" x 1.5" with an electrical connector on the top. I believer that the fuel temp sensor is integrated into the pressure transducer. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask and we'll go from there.

Well I changed the pressure sensor on the fuel rail. I replaced with a new Ford OE part. Still have codes.
Should I disconnect the battery to clear all codes including keep alive memory. I was alos told fuel filter could also cause codes. Remember this car is garage kept and only 10,000 miles on it.
Donation will soon follow as I did last time just tight on money after buying this sensor.
