The secondary Air pump is the smog pump. It's located underneath the radiator support on the passenger side behind the oil filter access cover. and has an extra piece attached to it for air flow from the intake to the output. once you get the bracket out take it apart and you'll see they are the same

SOURCE: Where is the fuse located for the secondary air pump for the 2000 Ford Mustang 3.8

Hi there:I suggest to check on the Power Distribution Box, that is located in the engine compartment.The power distribution box contains high-current fuses that protect your vehicle's main electrical systems from overloads.

DTC P0171 - System Too Lean (Bank 1)This DTC is very similar to P0174, and in fact your vehicle may show both codes at the same time.


A code P0171 may mean that one or more of the following has happened:

  • The MAF (Mass Air Flow) Sensor is dirty or faulty
    Note: The use of "oiled" air filters may cause the MAF to become dirty if the filter is over-oiled. There is also an issue with some vehicles where the MAF sensors leak the silicone potting material used to protect the circuitry.
  • There could be a vacuum leak downstream of the MAF sensor
  • Possible cracked vacuum or PCV line/connection
  • Faulty or stuck open PCV valve
  • Failed or faulty oxygen sensor (bank 1, sensor 1)
  • Sticking/plugged or failed fuel injector
  • Low fuel pressure (possible plugged/dirty fuel filter!)
  • Exhaust leak between engine and first oxygen sensor


Possible solutions, a lot of times, cleaning the MAF sensor and finding/fixing vacuum leaks fix the problem. If you're on a tight budget, start there, but that may not be the fix for certain. So, possible solutions include:
  • Clean the MAF sensor. Consult your service manual for it's location if you need help. I find it's best to take it off and spray it with electronics cleaner or brake cleaner. Make sure you are careful not to damage the MAF sensor, and make sure it's dry before reinstalling
  • Inspect all vacuum and PCV hoses, replace/repair as required
  • Inspect all hoses and connections in the air intake system
  • Inspect and/or test the intake manifold gaskets for leakage
  • Check for a dirty fuel filter and proper fuel pressure
  • Ideally you'll want to monitor short and long term fuel trims using an advanced scan tool
  • If you have access, you may want to run a smoke test


Hope this helps; also keep in mind that your feedback is important and I`ll appreciate your time and consideration if you leave some testimonial comment about this answer.

Thank you for using FixYa, have a nice day.

If car cranked but white smoke came out of the tailpipe.The car may have either a bad head gasket or a cracked cylinder head.You mentioned changeing the radiator.Did the car overheat severely?This would stress the headgasket.The car may not start now because the plugs are wet(water)or the rings have lost their ability to seal compression due to overheating.

The secondary air pump has failed and will need to replaced. The pump is an emissions component meant to help with cold start emissions. Replace it, clear the code & you should be fine. I hope this information was helpful.

Obd code of p0411 on a 1999 ford mustang 3.8 v-6 what do I check to correct

That's s failure of the secondary air pump. It'll have to be changed. It's an emissions component meant to help with cold start emissions. It won't cause engine running trouble but at inspection time you'll fail for smog. Change it before then and you'll be fine.

I have an 87 mustang gt,can the thermactor system be disengaged without causing harm to the engine or anything else, I live in San Antonio and vehicles are not required to be tested for emmisions so...

other than being illegal if yes all of that can be bypassed. Remove the smog pump and lines and plug the holes in the back of the cylinder heads with pipe plugs. remove the vaccume lines for the themactor silinoids and plug any off going to the engine. then you can go order a shorter belt and no more smog system. it was installed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

2000 MUSTANG

P1413 is the electric secondary air injection pump related, most times the issue is with one of three things, the relay for the pump motor is defective, the air injection hoses havwe come off at the pump, or the pump motor is defective, do you hear the pump run when you jumper the relay? check that first.
