    98 GT - Budget build of sorts

    Car looks Great! Where did you get the headlights? Also, when setting up the rear and using FORD gears you use a .030 shim on the pinion gear and that should be good. I remember reading that somewhere in the past as it makes it much easier to set the rears up but you have to use FORD gears as...

    Bad PCM or ????

    I finally got my car running with a remanufactured PCM but the problem I'm having is terrible idle, stalling, rough running and a P0102 code for low voltage at Mass Air. I replaced the Mass Air sensor from a running car and same issue. If I put a Volt meter across the two signal wires I get a...

    PATS delete service?

    The EDIS module is now part of the PCM. I wish it was a separate part as it would have saved me quite a bit of money but the good news is that was the problem and we got the engine started. She didn't run well but it does start and the rest I can figure out as I go. Thanks for all your help and...

    Electrical Please Help! Daily Driver P1233

    So its saying that the fuel pump driver module is failing/failed. Fuel pressure good? Not sure if that is a separate module in the back trunk area drivers side and/or part of the CCRM up in the passenger front fender area. I would check the wiring in that area of the trunk if the drivers side...

    Blown engine swapping npi and pi???

    From what I looked up over the past few weeks. using PI heads, cam and intake on a NPI engine makes the most compression and the best power combo. It appears with these 4.6 2V engines the cams only push the power further up the RPM range and thats fine but they do lose a little on the bottom and...

    PATS delete service?

    So a small update. After going through the powertrain service manual I've troubleshot it down to a bad computer. There is no module between the coils and the computer on the 98 and "I think" all of the EEC-V models integrated that into the computer. The EEC-IV vehicles use that style ignition...

    PATS delete service?

    The car ran prior to me purchasing it. The previous owner purchased it with a bad transmission, only had reverse. he parked it and when he went to fix the transmission it wouldn't start and he just gave up on it. I'll look for that EDIS module.

    PATS delete service?

    I talked to the placed that did the PATS delete, Garrett tuning. He said that when they disable the PATS it ignores the "handshake" needed from the key and just allows it to start. With regards to my problem they are thinking possible hardware issue, wiring to coils/computer or lastly the...

    PATS delete service?

    So would a NGS work better than the modern scan tool? I worked on the car this past weekend and the pump is getting 12v, coils are getting 12v, Injectors are pulsing while starting but still no spark. Something is keeping the computer from telling it to control the coils. I don't thin its two...

    PATS delete service?

    So I sent the PCM out to have the PATS deleted and it did not fix my problem. So far i replaced the fuel pump, CCRM, PATS deleted and still no spark or fuel pressure at the rail? The pump will run for a second and thats it and only getting 8.3 volts at the plug when the key is turned to run...

    PATS delete service?

    Now I'm not sure if I have a PATS issue or what. Open car door and the theft light flashes, not sure if that is normal. Install key, turn to run and the theft light proves out after 3 seconds. Doesn't flash while cranking. Fuel pump comes one but no pressure at the rail. No spark either and my...

    PATS delete service?

    I picked up a project car and can't get the thing to start. Theft light flashes constantly and continues to flash while trying to start and just want to get it deleted. The car is a 98 GT so if anyone does this service or can recommend a place to send my PCM it would be greatly appreciated...

    Gear Install - Backlash Question

    RIO5.0, Thanks for the reply!! That's pretty much how I was going to go about it. Now I did happen to get an offer on a set of 3:73 from an explorer. So in regards to running those gears, I can pretty much replace the crush sleeve, new seals, reuse my end caps and spacers and Whamo no big...

    94 GT oil fouled plug

    I did happen to do a compression check on the engine prior to purchasing it and all the cylinders were dead even...or dam close. I was thinking valve guide seal too but it does have a funny idle...almost lile it has a cam in it. This is what made me think it might be the intake leaking. The car...
