What is your question?
Hello!! Please help me. I have an 02 mustang v6 and i just replaced the rear end because the spider gears were messing teeth. I recently failed the emissions test and the code said replace the EGR VALVE SENSOR, ever since then my vehicle has been dieing even when it's driving. Now, i check my battery and it wasn't good,so i had a new one put in,BRAND NEW. After i replaced it the vehicle still dies, so I had the alternator checked. It was ok.So i went through various other steps.I checked the serpentine belt to see if it was stretched or worn, but it wasn't, it was perfect. The tensioner seems tight, and all the other wheels turn pretty good,no locking whatsoever. The first thing that dies from the vehicle is the Radio,then the rest of the vehicle bogs down and shuts off completely. I had replaced the cold air intake with a better one a few months prior and before the vehicle takes a dive the air intake sucks in a huge amount of air, and the vehicle dies. I need this car up and running because it's my only vehicle! Please help me!!!

I cannot explain the radio portion of this deal, since you said the charging system checks out ok. However, I feel nearly certain that your air intake is the culprit, somehow. It is the variable to the whole story, and excessive unmetered air flow will certainly stall your engine. Either restore the air intake system to factory condition, or have the one you have installed checked for proper installation. Your Mass Air Flow sensor could be damaged in addition to your issues.
