I got codes out of my 91 Mustang 5.0.. i got a code 10- theres nothing in the book for 10, codes start at 11? then i got a 85-o Canister purge circuit failure, does that mean the part is bad? or its a wiring prob?

Was this a KOEO or a KOER??? I know on the scanners I have use this is for a KOER where you are to snap the throttle to complete the Diagnosic. I won't worry with the code 85 not going to effect the driveability.

i looked on yahoo. and found out what this part is and its not even on my car. it has no smog pump either.

i also learned that there will be vacuum leaks, is ther any hoses i need to plug off?

KOER is most likely if you are looking at run-time datalogs.

Yep, the purge hose runs from the canister (mounted on the frame rail below the factory airbox location)to under side of the upper intake out the front. The hose (if it's still there) runs a similar route as the fuel lines.

Just make sure the fitting into the upper intake is plugged off.
