    Code 96 - Secondary fuel pump circuit fail - no pwr pin 19

    Got it fixed!! Turned out to a ground/ connection problem. Re-did all the grounds and added an extra one. Dash harness was hacked up in a couple of places by the PO so I re-did all the splices with solder. Took it for a long ride and it seems to have fixed it. Thanks for all the help...

    Quick ?? on voltage drop - 14.2 v <> 13.2 v

    Took it for a long ride and had no issues so I guess that it is fixed. Voltage must be ok. Thanks for the help, guys!!!

    Just need to verify, one more wiring question

    Since you are going 93 > 93, it should plug right in. The fuel pump relay on the 93 is under the MAF so it should already be on your new 5.0 engine harness. Sounds like it will be a sweet ride!!

    Quick ?? on voltage drop - 14.2 v <> 13.2 v

    I have a 3G alternator and I am trying to chase some possible electrical gremlins. With engine running at idle I have: 14.28 volts at the battery 13.23 volts at Pin 19 of the EEC with direct ground to battery 13.18 volts at Pin 19 of the EEC using body ground I re-did all the...

    Rear 8.8 axle bushings...which ones

    Stock SN-95 Ford bushings. They are rubber and a little stiffer than the Fox ones. Good for a DD like application. If you check Max Motorsports web site, they only reccomend the stock Ford upper rubber bushings

    Code 96 - Secondary fuel pump circuit fail - no pwr pin 19

    I agree, normal voltage should be somwhere in between 10.5 and 14 volts. What book are you reading?? What is the basis for it saying that I have a short in the harness?? I only checked pin 19 Other codes are 67, 91 41. I know what is causing them and I don't think that they are...

    Code 96 - Secondary fuel pump circuit fail - no pwr pin 19

    Ah hah (light bulb goes off)!! I think that I know what the problem is. When I put the new motor in, I used an underdrive crank and w/p pulley. I think that the underdrive crank pulley is not spinning the alternator enough, hence the low voltage - voltage drop problem. I had no problem...

    Driveshaft removal help/ideas?

    Heat usually does the trick. I heated each bolt until it was cherry red. Then I used a 12pt box wrench combined with another box wrench to get extra leverage. Once it broke loose, it came out fairly easy. How much heat did you put on it??

    Code 96 - Secondary fuel pump circuit fail - no pwr pin 19

    I just re did all the grounds and added the one for the 3g ALT. So I doubt that is the problem. I have 12.06 volts at the batt with engine off and 13.95 volts with engine running at idle. I guess I am loosing voltage somewhere. .5 volts to FP fusible link and 1.5 volts to ECM How do I...

    Code 96 - Secondary fuel pump circuit fail - no pwr pin 19

    Car will start and run normally. With key in run position and engine off - there is no power at Pin 19 ECM. With fuel pump jumped out at self-test connector (pump runs continuous) there is power at pin 19 ECM. I read an old post of Joels and I am confused: For pin 19......if you...

    A little advice would be good.

    ALL depends on what you want out of the car. What are your goals? How much HP are you looking to make?? What is your definition of "streetable"?

    GT40P-E303-1993 FACTORY STOCK 5.0

    PTV clearance should always be checked. Even with the same combination of parts, every motor is different. Better to be safe than rebuilding. I would reccomend either borrowing or picking up a used degree wheel. They are not that hard to use and it makes a difference !!

    i got hit by a dumptruck

    Make sure one of the quotes you get is from the local Ford dealer body shop. Even if you have no intention of using the Ford dealer, it is a good quote to have when you start negotiating. When getting the estimates, I would also specify that you want OEM parts only. No aftermarket. Good...
