    Startup = Moment of truth = FAIL - 5.0 EFI conversion help

    Hi, I have been laid up sick for the past 4 days so I have not been able to get to the wiring. The short has to be in the new harness, as nothing in the old harness was affected (no blown fuses). I pulled appart the loom and could not find any other fuse link affected. Not sure if that...

    ? It's been awhile, so I may have forgotten this, but what do you mean by the EEC trigger wire? Oh sorry. I meant ECC. I didn't know the exact name for the wire that switches the relay, to send full 12V power to the sensors and whatnot. It's the Grn/Red wire from the ignition...

    I thought a line blew off the fuel pump and could just see the entire garage in flames. The fuse link that blew is the blue one that is right at the solenoid. The only change that I made was to connect the ECC trigger wire to the ignition green/red wire.

    I finally figured out that I had the wrong end of the green/red wire from the ignition switch connected to the ECC relay. Dumb, dumb, dumb... Here is the problem. I now have the fuel pump running, but not for the 5 seconds. Infact it ran for about 15 seconds and then I heard a loud crack...

    Just a child with more wallet

    Yup, I am 42 this year, and should have my dream completed soon. Thanks to all of you!!! My first car was a 68 coupe, and same story... could not do what I really wanted.

    Power steering pulley HELPP!!!!

    Inside the shaft, it is threaded. Mine was filled up with garbage, but a little carb cleaner sprayed it out.

    I took a night off, to destress (aka fishing) I am heading over to work on it tonight. I will check my ignition connection. I just installed the gauge pod, a couple of weeks ago and I may have broke the connection?? Thanks for the diagram. All, thanks for the support, I don't know what I...

    Can someone help me with some wiring issues?

    I decided to suck it up and just run new wires for the Fuel pump. Now I need to discover why I don't have power to the red wires of the ECC relay with keyed on. I will go through the list of "no power" to figure that one out. I'll probably have a ton more questions, so thank you for the...

    Power steering pulley HELPP!!!!

    I just went through this. Slip the two half clamps over the pully end, screw in the center bolt. There are threads inside the shaft. LOL Do the reverse to put it back on. I used a little trick of heating up the pully before I put it on, virtually slipped right on. When it cools, it...

    Upon key on, there is no power to the Red wires of the ECC relay, only the Yellow. Just discovered that tonight.

    Can someone help me with some wiring issues?

    I have no idea what harness this is but I had a friend over to help me trace some of the wiring and not much of it matches. This is too much to mess with; I am going to have to find another harness somewhere. Any ideas?

    Who knows what harness I have but a friend was over and helped me trace a bunch of wires and a lot do not match. It is just too much to try and mess with; I am going to have to find a harness somewhere. Most I have seen are being sold with a computer for big bucks. Any ideas?

    Can someone help me with some wiring issues?

    This is great information. I believe that the harness is not one from a Mustang. I think it is from a Tbird. None of those wires match. I have confirmed with the dealership that the computer is definitely from a 91 Mustang, so I can use your information to "rewire" the relay.

    Startup = Moment of truth = FAIL - 5.0 EFI conversion help

    The computer is a A9P and by the bar code, the Dealership looked it up and it is indeed from a 91 Mustang. Aren't all the harnesses from 89-93 the same Auto for Auto? I can't imagine Ford would change the wiring patterns year over year; maybe I just trust in the Blue Oval too much. :shrug: I...

    Thanks man, I don't have my diagrams with me, they are with the car.:rolleyes: But I am heading over there now. Hey I owe you some pics of the exhaust as well, but I have to get this figured out first. I'll take the pics tonight and hopefully post them. :nice:

    Can someone help me with some wiring issues?

    I did the 5.0 conversion using the motor, computer and harness out of a 91 GT Automatic. I have the A9P computer and per the Ford Dealership the computer is ok, and from the correct car. I am having trouble with the wiring, as the wire colors don't match the schematics. I don't have power to...

    Alright, I have calmed down. I am determined to get this finished. Here is what I have: Blue/orange wire from pin 22 running out to the EEC test port, and back to a grey plug under the dash that carries the fog lights wiring (4 wires), a Tan/Yellow wire which runs back to the Fuel pump...

    Crap, I have discovered that the bastards from Colorado Mustang Specialists sold me a harness out of a Thunderbird or something else?? (I hope the moter and computer were from a Mustang- I'll find out tomorrow) This stuff is hard enough without trying to discover how any of this works when the...

    Startup = Moment of truth = FAIL - 5.0 EFI conversion help

    I just started unwinding the harness and I don't think that I even have the fuel pump relay powered from pin 22? I almost have the whole thing pulled apart, so I will have the answer in the morning.

    bnickle- Ok, here is what I found. I have a wire from the fuel pump pin on the ECC to the Fuel Pump relay, to the inertia switch, to the fuel pump. But the huge ford wiring diagram shows the wires should run from the ECC to the inertia switch, to the fuel pump relay, and back to the pump...
