Okay, here is my problem. 99 SVT. I should start out by saying that I have applied the moosing fix that is listed in the Common Problems FAQ. The throttle hang is definitely better, but the moosing is still there. I will also say that it only occurs after the engine has warmed up. It happens as soon as I start to let off the clutch and quits at between 5-10mph. Also the weather is quite warm (70 degrees). This doesn't sound like the problem described in the FAQ, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to try the fix. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to what could be causing this? I just recently replaced the suspension with the BAT European Handling Kit. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

You did the TH fix, but you may have to play with hole sizes as not all cars like the same plug hole size.

Originally posted by The FAQ:
For the SVT, or a car equipped with the SVT intake, the optimum hole size in the plug seems to be 3/16" or 7/32". For the stock intake, the best size seems to be 15/64".




I tried all 3 and still got the moose.
