Hi everyone. I've been subtly searching this site ever since I purchased a 1995 GT 5.0 5 speed. It is not a Foxbody, but not a 4.6. Anyway, I'm stumped.
The car has a serious miss. The guy before me replaced the whole ignition system trying to track it down, all but coil which I had checked. I checked compression, I tried the KOEO KOER balancing tests but it just spit out crazy numbers that don't even make sense. It also would ONLY do the KOEO test & would not progress to the following two; KOER or balancing. It ran halfway alright when I got it, if I opened her up it would run normal for about 3 seconds. At idle/low speed it runs like . Well, now I can barely get it to go around the block. It misses so bad it jerks. I guess in 95 they also put obd2's under the dash - tried that w/ three different scanners all said the connection was bad. All of the tests, on top of the fact that one day it runs alright & now it runs like crap seem to me like a bad ECM. I took the intake plenum off, raised the fuel rails & watched the injectors while being turned over & they all spit fuel. I thought it may have been an injector...anyway, I cannot find an ECM online...I've tried searching 17 different ways & just cannot find a refurbished/new one for a 95 5.0 5 speed...any opinions, advice, or anyone who can point me in the direction of an ECM &/or tell me what years will work if I happen to get lucky at a junkyard would be helping me TREMENDOUSLY. Thank you all.
P.S. VIN is 1FALP42T1SF117356
And...obviously, I need to complete this mission as cheap as possible. I just want it to run right.
