Error Code p1413 - and question about 3.8 to 3.8 swap

Black_Sunshine · Oct 12, 2010

Ok well first off... I've got a code - p1413 popping up so my check engine light is on, I need as much info on this code as possible.. I know it can be a bad air pump - 180 dollars - argh.... But any info on what else it could be before I take my 00 mustang to the shop would be great.

Also another question is I'm at 195k miles on my 00... Also own a 03 mustang 3.8 thats totaled - so it's a parts car it's also a 3.8 v6. I want to take the 3.8 out of the 03 and put it into my 00 - but, the 03 is an automatic and the 00 is a manual... When I do this swap what do I have to do with the computer part of the swap - Considering the computers hold the trans codes and since I'm leaving the stick trans in... what issues will I have if any?

It is most likely either a hose or line that fell off, broke or is kinked, or a bad A.I.R. pump. What you can do is unplug the A.I.R. pump connector. Ground the black wire and, with a 30 amp fused jumper wire, apply battery voltage to the white wire.

If the pump runs, then chances are the pump is good and the problem is with a hose. If not, then the A.I.R. pump will need to be replaced.

This pump helps reduce pollution by injecting air in the exhaust system for up to 30 seconds at cold startups.

If the pump works then possibly you could need the Relay that controls the air pump.
The relay is in the relay box next to the battery. It is the relay in the left upper corner when looking towards the driver.

It should be similar to this... although I'm not sure : http://i.imgur.com/RCiLL.jpg

In the case of motor swapping the motors are the same just put your flywheel & clutch on the other motor. You don't have to mess with the computer at all.
