I was revving my engine then all of a sudden antifreeze was coming up on my windshield (outside) so I checked under my hood and there was antifreeze every where except for the reservior, it was empty

Asked by commesha Dec 07, 2015 at 06:36 PM about the 2002 Ford Mustang GT

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I took it to the shop and they found a hose
leaking and replaced the clamp. Now my
car is missing from 3rd to 5th gear. It will
randomly speed up on its own and then
starts missing again.  I didn't have this
problem at first only after they fixed it. Help
Please! !

You got water on the coils which is bad news for Ford modular engines. I would pull all the coils and dry out the spark plug wells. You may have to replace some of the coils though. Use some dielectric grease on the coil boots and on the area where the coil seals to the spark plug well when you re-install them.
