Thumbs down Re: Oh my GOD help me please

hey its definately OBD II because the OBD I wouldnt fit at all... II started in 1995, all around... and i dont thin there are any other test modules anywhere that will connect old school... there are factory ones for certain parts... the maf doesnt change the way the car runs at all at idle, but at above idle it changes RPMS... like an idiot i am gonna try the fuel filter... and the reason i am removing EGR.. is because the valve is disconnected, and i half think it might be stuck half open... allowing UNMETERED air in... but i really dont see how that would make for worse performance... are there any reprogram mod for the 95? i dont think so... but surely there is a programmer out there... all the stuff i was told last night i did, and it still sucks... drove it to work today, and it still cuts out in all ranges... but only with a load... no load it will max out without a second thought... im totally at a loss... gonna replace the O2 censors this weekend to see if it helps... and maybe check the fuel reg...

Re: Oh my GOD help me please

I'm almost willing to bet you have a bad EEC, simply for the fact that you can't get a scanner to connect.

When we did my wife's auto to manual tranny swap a few weeks ago, the EEC we got to go with it was used, and when we tried to reprogram her PATS key (96+ anti-theft key) at the dealership where I work, the Ford scanner wouldn't connect. I bought a new EEC and it connected and everything works fine now.

Granted, hers is an EEC-V unit, but the same theory applies. If it can't connect to the diagnostics unit, most likely there is something fried in the EEC.

Check with NAPA and/or Carquest, they tend to have better pricing and availability on EEC-IV units.

Re: Oh my GOD help me please

If you have a down stram O2 sensor (total of 4), then you have OBD II. If you have only one O2 sensor per side (total of 2) then you have OBD I.

Some companies started OBD II requirments earlier than others, so perhaps Ford had started on a certain engine/tranny package. But most OEM's had waited until a model year and then changed over the whole platform.

My 1995 Cobra has one pair of O2 sensors, so it would be considered OBD I. My 1996 Cobra had 2 sets of O2 Sensors, so it would be considered as OBD II.

As far as your problem goes, have you had any luck since your last post?

Also check and make sure the wires in the connectors which you are plugging into are truly makeing a connection. It is not uncommon that these are damaged during in plant testing on the assembly line (don't ask why I know this). These wire connectors are not ment to be used many times, so they are usually not made of the best material.

not true... all mustang 5.0's were obd 1 up to & including 95.

this is one reason why ford went to the 4.6 in 96, so they wouldn't have to design the obd 2 for the 5.0 for the short term.

if you have an obd2 connecter under the dash, then the car originally came with a v-6 or it's not a 95 or someone re-wired it.

this would also explain why no scanner would work.
