2003 GT Problems after wreck

[mustangguy289]

Got this text from a buddy...any ideas?

""My neighbor's Mustang had a box inside his passenger fender, but now it's missing since he got in a wreck. Since the wreck his valves started knocking. Does it have variable valve timing or a vacuum advance? Any dieas? It's an 03 GT."

I told him I thought there was a vacuum canister under there.

Fan and ECU relays...not fans equals overheated and boat anchor in the engine bay.

Just an idea.

Yep that box is the CCRM, constant control relay module, basically just a bunch of relays on a circuit board, IIRC, though, The GT will not run without it.

Isn't the charcoal canister behind the passengers wheel in the well? I know it was on my 96, but I'm not sure if they changed it with the redesign in 99.

I didnt think It was there, I know the ccrm is though

Is it possible that it will run... just like crap? Or will it not run at all without it?
