    Carb Help for 1985 FoxBody

    with the engine off, air cleaner off. look down the carb while snapping the throttle. do you see fuel squirt in to the barrels?? if not, the accelerator pump is probably bad.

    shifter lock, blinker, and cruise control

    for the cruise control malfuntion. check the brake pressure switch at the brake pedal. there are 2 switches there. the correct one has LG/RD and OG wires. should have 12v at the LG/RD wire at all times. will have 12v at OG wire when brakes are off and 0v when brakes are on.

    What do the TAB, TAD, EGR and EEC-IV talk about?

    that may be true as well. i don't have the charts but i DO trust your reading of them. the computer will also shutoff vacuum to the AIRB valve to stop the flow of air into the exhaust and will dump it to the atmosphere.

    What do the TAB, TAD, EGR and EEC-IV talk about?

    it's designed that way so the AIR system won't cause a backfire. Quickly closing the throttle or using the gears to decelerate at higher engine speeds causes a very rich air/fuel mixture resulting in rich exhaust gasses. if the AIR system added fresh air into this, rapid combustion...

    What do the TAB, TAD, EGR and EEC-IV talk about?

    in addition to jrichner's writeup on the AIR system. it also dumps air to the atmosphere on rapid deceleration (ie. downshifting to a stop light) to help prevent backfiring. booksix, i guess you could piggyback the computers. splice the sensor signal wires to both the OEM computer and the...

    Did I do the valve cover breather right?

    leaving the oil cap off will allow fresh air (ie. O2) into the crankcase which will be pickup by the PCV system and introduced into the intake without be metered by the MAF. that's one reason we have a closed PCV system. if he completely deletes the PCV system then that problem goes away...

    BAD battery drain problem, I dunno why.

    Crank Pulley/Balancer Removal
