Hey guys,
I put a '98 GT40P motor into my '89 Mustang. The motor has 82K miles on it. Here is what has been replaced or modified on the motor:
TFS1 Cam
1.6 RR
Alex Parts Valve Springs
65mm Professional Products Throttle Body
1 5/8" Long Tube Headers
MSD Coil and Distributor
Double Roller Timing Chain
New Oil Pump
3G Alternator
Sensors replaced: O2's, Temp, ACT and TPS
Also, the Heads were pulled off and had a Mondello Valve Job & Springs were set up by a reputable machine shop.
2 weeks ago I put it in and fired it up. Started up first try. Tried to set the timing as best as I could at 10 degrees with the spout out and motor surging. I cleaned my IAC and then tried doing the idle reset procedure. When doing that,I checked my TPS and it was reading high voltage. I cleaned the 10 pin salt and pepper connectors. I found a bad spot SIGRTN wire and repaired it, but was still getting a high voltage reading. Upon further investigation when pulling the ECM out, I found that the car has a superchip installed. It turned out the SIGRTN was fried inside the ECM and I did the jumper repair that Joel5.0 posted. The repair worked and I now have correct voltage readings. I tried doing the idle reset procedure again and even with the IAC unhooked it still surged and the RPM's would not go below 1000. I then bought an ECM code reader and got the following codes:
22 - BARO Sensor out of range
31 - EVP or PFE Circuit below minimum voltage
81 - Air diverter solenoid circuit fault
I went to the local you-pull-it salvage yard and grabbed a MAP/BARO sensor out of a '92 Mustang 4 Cyl. Came home, put it in and I am left with the same issues and codes. I put a DVM on both sensors and they are getting 4.98 readings.
The car has no smog, EGR or A/C hooked up.
I can and have been driving the car around. Overall, it runs hard (full throttle). But when I come to a stop or at an idle, it stalls or surges very badly.
HELP!
