I was pointed to this site from another site and was told that when done as instructed they work fine. If someone downloads one and it works let us know.

I will try but which year. I just started the 2002 in the fords cars

I'll download 98 and burn it. will post results shortly.

I'm interested if it works as advertised as I paid for the same thing.

Sorry bout the double post.


1998 works just fine.

Cool :V Maybe this should be a sticky to save our members money over the cost of Ebay people who sell the same thing we can now get for free :Beer

Who is hosting these images, anyways?

I'd hate to have everyone kill this guy's monthly bandwith quota.

97 works too

02 works

this guy has hosted these files for about 2 years now,maybe more,get em while you can,about 3 weeks ago on the Taurus forum i visit,they announced he had been possible shut down by Ford.since they are back up,i am downloading them all,

I need the 1990. Anyone have it or know where I can get it?

for some reason, the 93-94 does not seem to work.

The 92 doesn't work.

1992 worked for me after a few coasters.... I had to slow the burn speed down.. maybe my burner is crappin.

1992 has the right disk label embedded in the ISO, so it should work right outta box.

hope its close to my 91 for the Conti's sake... it will work wonders for my 92 cougar tho, so it was worth it.

Would get 91 if there was one avail.

Anyone figure out the volume label for 01? he has two question marks.

95 works

for some reason, the 93-94 does not seem to work.
You need to get a copy of WinISO and use it to change the volume lable of the .iso file from New Disc to 93_94C11.

:slam doh! thanks bro! :Beer

You don't have to burn the CDs to see if they work, just download Daemon-tools Here (http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/portal/download.php?mode=ViewCategory&catid=5) and use that to mount the images without burning them..

your right about the Daemon tools.. use it all the time.. but with dialup at home, and highspeed at work, I chose to make a coaster for my copy.

'94 works... :woowoo2:

:Beer Awsome! Just burned 97, works fine...... :Beer

Dling 96 now, will post results

99 works, I can't get 00 to work...

I am able to download the 97 truck file file however when I extract it roxio opens up to burn it to a cd and it says the file is not valid. Its not roxio because I downloaded 96 for my car and it worked fine and burnt to a cd. anyone else try this file?

1996 works fine.

I mirrored the site for backup, its 4.7GB of ISO image files. They can be mounted as a virtual drive or burned to a CD. All of them actually fit on a DVD if anyone is interested.

downloaded 93 works fine

sorry double post

I downloded 95 "nrg format" and couldn't get it to work. Then again, I am no computer genius.

2000 does not work. It is going right to my burner program but wont open so I can burn it.

What would you use to open it when you download it as an iso file?

type in deamon tools on google and download it. After it is downloaded,on the bottom right of your screen, there will be an icon. Click that and find the iso file you want to download. Then go on my computer and click on the F drive (on my computer, your might be different). then click INSTALL. if you have any question just post.

Here is the Link. http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/download.php?mode=Download&id=83

This freeware program works very well with these ISO Images.

Sorry, that link was for 64 bit systems, here is the proper one.

http://www.daemon-tools.cc/dtcc/download.php?mode=Download&id=81

Is that link for windows xp? I downloaded it, and it wouldn't work. I am at work right now, using windows 98.
Can I use Roxio, and just burn it to a cd?

Yes, you can burn the image with any CD burning software that supports the burning of ISO files. Then you will just have to insert the CD any time you need to view the manual.

I guess that I have been the computer industry too long. I did not think anyone but third world countries used Windows 98 anymore. I have not used it in over 5 years.

My parts catalog at work will not operate on anything other than windows 98. I use window XP at home.
I will try Roxio later tonight from home.
Thanks.

I got it copied onto a disc with roxio. I can't figure out how to view it now.

When I go my computer>E: drive, it says files currently on this disc: 95car14.iso. I double click that it says the same thing on the next screen, but a different "icon". I double click that, roxio opens "untitled data cd project" and it says "the file E:\95car14.iso\95car14.iso" is not a valid cd image file, in a little warning box.
I couldn't use that daemon thing...a warning box came up saying something about it would mess up my "kernel" files, so I got nervous and deleted it. I don't remember exactly what it said.

Update to site:
All downloads now require a use of torrent. The files are no longer available as direct download.

iso's aren't downloading.

OK i have no clue on how to get this thing to work can some one please break it down into for dumbys terms and type slow because I cant read very fast LOL.

Sorry, I had to have someone else do it for me.

I take it u need to burn the file to a CD or DVD? What is involved in getting these to work? What is ment by "torrents"?

I take it u need to burn the file to a CD or DVD? What is involved in getting these to work? What is ment by "torrents"?

here is how i got it to work now:

1. Go to the website and download the service manual, it will be a .torrent file.

2. Go here and download a bittorrent program called burst http://krypt.dyndns.org:81/torrent/index.phtml?action=download
i think its pretty good, you may differ.

3. After the program is downloaded, install it. Then run the program, go start..all programs... burst.

4. With burst running, go to the "open torrent" tab, in the "torrent file" line click on the picture of the folder and browse to where you downloaded that original .torrent file. Then on the next line pick a spot on your computer to download.

5. Click "start transfer" and the transfer should begin........this might take awhile.

6. After that go to where burst saved the service manual and the folder should be a .iso.zip Go into that folder and the .iso should be there!

7. Now you can start at the steps in the original post. Open whatever CD burning program you have and make sure it can burn .iso and then make sure the volume label is correct and you should be good to go!

A .torrent file is essentially a "pointer" and when you have a bit torrent program the program goes and retrieves that file for you wherever its at.

Damn, I already bought one for the Lincoln..............I need a site like this for the Caddy, so I can through the paperback away.

That's what you get for buying a caddy;)

Does anyone know if the nero format still works?

it should

Does anyone know what a 5 digit PACODE is?

In what context? :) Is this in the manual or download site?

Well I downloaded what seems to be the 96-99 disc. When it is installing, I get to a area that asks for the 5 digit pacode (Parts and Accesories code.)

you dont enter the 5 digit code,just click past it.and make sure you also select isp and not ford oasis for connection

download bit torrent program-then download file desired to hard drive-about 350mb-30 mjnutes on my broadband-used nitto to burn cd

Nitto? Don't they make tires? I burned my 94 with Nero awhile back (although I had to use some other program to edit the ISO label.)

Here is what I use to burn my ISO, you can't go wrong with this and it's free, this the link.
