    Biggest tire size on FOX w/ SN95 brakes

    Right now I have 245/45/17 up front with no rubbing when the wheel is turned because I cut out a piece of the inner fender shield. The rears are 255/45/17 with no rubbing what so ever. Im thinking that if I go with 275/40/17 in the rear then it should still be ok as the tire will not be as tall.

    Biggest tire size on FOX w/ SN95 brakes

    Hey, I have an 88 GT with sn95 brakes all around. I also have 94 17'' Cobra rims on the car. What size tires can I put on the front and rear. I rolled the rear fender a little bit just by sticking a bat under there and having someone else drive the car slowly, does anyone know the best tire...

    Battery relocation positive battery cable ques.

    Hey, I have a 88 FOX Hatch. My question for the battery relocation is about the positive cable. Where does the cable end up in the engine compartment when it comes from the back. Does the cable go to the starter or to the solenoid like when the battery was in the engine compartment. I know that...

    Welding parking brake handle

    Hey, I was just wondering before I start to make my parking brakes work after the rear disc install, when I weld the second to last tooth on the parking brake lever, how is the handle supposed to stay up once pulled up. I see that the teeth hold the handle once its pulled up so if I weld the...

    TPS has no voltage.

    **update** Hey guys, thanks again for helping me out. Ok, I fixed the problem. It looks like the ground wire was shorted to power. I ran a new ground wire to pin 40 of the ECU. TPS voltage works perfectly now. I was reading 0.81 volts then adjusted to 0.96. Thats wayy better then 0.02, LOL...

    TPS has no voltage.

    Mustang-a-holic, I actually did change the TPS when I didnt get any volts across the green and black wires. That didnt work either, but I did check and I have 5.02vref.

    TPS has no voltage.

    Thanks guys for responding, I REALLY REALLY appriciate it. So I measured the resistance of all 3 wires. I disconnected the ECU connector and the tps connector. From the ECU connector to the TPS connector, the BLACK wire reads .01 OHMS, the Red wire reads .01OHMS and so does the GREEN wire. So to...

    TPS has no voltage.

    I rechecked vref and signal 5 volt and what I get is 5.02 volts at the red wire, 4.9 volts at the BLACK wire, and 0volts at the green wire with the sensor disconnected. How is this possible if the BALCK wire is supposed to be ground? Also, is it possible that this is happening because of the...

    TPS has no voltage.

    Just another side note: I removed my EGR valve completely from the car and left it disconnected. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with that. Again, I do have a 5vref but maybe theres something I dont know?

    TPS has no voltage.

    Yes I had the ignition on. :) because I had a 5 Volt ref. I'm going to try to check the reistance of ground tomorrow (monday). Thanks again for replying guys. Also, I'm mostly concerned with throttle response because I know when I adjusted the TPS once before, second gear felt like a totally...

    Hello, I have an '88 Hatch 5 spd with Mass air conversion. My problem is that I tried to adjust my throttle postion sensor today and noticed that I'm not getting anything. I have the right wires (green and black) but I'm not getting any volts on my meter. I have a 5 volt reference, I checked...

    Constant brake pedal feel change with disc brakes

    Hey, I have an '88 gt with a the 94 front and rear 5 lug conversion with disc brakes. I went by all of the instructions that I could find to do the conversion (i.e. gut the prop valve, install an adjustable prop valve, 94 master and booster, and matt's 3-2 port conversion). The problem that I'm...

    rear disc dont lock up like instructions say

    I dont remember if the valve was in or out, but it was so the rears have the most pressure that they can get. Also, I jacked up the rear and ran the car with the rear wheels off the ground and the rears stop, but just not good enough when they're on the floor.
