how does it do with the ac on? with it on the cooling fan runs max all the time. without the ac the fan doesn't come on until the R. Should also see what letter it's on when the fan kicks on without the ac. Your gauge might be off?

i replaced the coolant temp sensor on mine and it dropped at least half a letter on the gauge. i think it was the one on the left side of the crossover tube

I took my wiper cowl out and disconnected the hood struts and propped the hood near vertical. Then used a 02 sensor socket with longg extension + a swivel and removed it from the top. Taking the wiper cowl out greatly helped disconnecting the connector as well. Probably should thread it in from...

^I agree seems like a bad vacuum leak.

you could splice the '96 connector on if you want. Rockauto probably has that

That's what I have... you can see my signature... 2 1/2. I bought the pipe kit, a dynomax x pipe muffler and 2 bullet mufflers and then took it over to my exhaust shop. With that big dynomax muffler, clearancing the gas tank heat shield with a big hammer was necessary but not a big deal. I will...

head over to rockauto.com... I'm sure they have a motorcraft iac for you

Very nice! On springs? I'd love it a touch lower in the back but looks good

Yes, I have 11K miles ago. Walbro 255. The fuel pressure checks out. If anything the car smells kinda rich when it gets going. I bought new coils. Hopefully they help the issue.

I just ordered some davis unified ignition screaming demon coils for $100 from Summit, they'll get here wed-thurs. I have FRPP wires already. Hopefully the coils with fix me up. I'll report back

In regards to my hard to start condition I've tested the coil packs (4 tower 1996 style edis)... I get no primary resitance from the 3 pins. The specifications are supposed to be .3- 1.0 ohms. Tested both coils and get 0.0 ohms reading on any combination of the three pins. Checked the...

I have. It only gives me a p1000 because i've disconnected the battery I could put it back to stock I guess with the tuner, I might end up trying that Right now I'm suspecting the coil packs or the pcm or the tune maybe or starter solenoid idk...

Soooo it's NOT fixed :( I've also replaced the camshaft position sensor, crankshaft position sensor, ran another ground from the block to the body and the battery to the body. I checked the fuel pressure, with the key on it jumps to 36 psi IN the morning it usually starts up first try but at...

That's great! Welcome! Let's see some pics :)

So I fixed the issue yesterday and it was the ground next to the battery. I loosened the 8mm bolt that secures it and moved the ground a while back and it chipped the paint under the ground. So looking at the bottom of the ground it had paint chips stuck to it. I didn't realize until yesterday...
