Yeah, I kinda figured that would be the case. I did find that I can use a 5.0 CPS housing with a 3.8L shaft and it works fine. I just can't figure out if I want to use EDIS 8 or coil on plug now... Both have ups and downs...
Not exactly Mustang except for the engine and ECU wiring harness. I have a 1992 Ford Ranger 4x4 with a 1989 HO 5.0/GT40P heads/Explorer intake using MSPNP2 ECU. It was running fine with the stock distributor and TFI. I already had the Explorer FEAD on the front of the engine and that made it easy to install the EDIS 8 CPS. I completed all the wiring and attempted to start--nothing. Changed the polarity on the VR sensor--nothing. Changed the VR sensor and got some fire but not running. Finally went over the wiring again and decided I had the A/B coil mis-wired, so I swapped those and it started and ran horribly like it is on 4 cylinders. Won't idle. Swapped out the C/D coil today because I broke the connector on the coil. Tried to start and just got some backfires through the intake. I attached my log from it's short run. It is advancing the timing, so it must be getting SAW and PIP? which would mean the VR sensor is working. Any ideas?
Best thing for you to do is to cut and paste that post into your own new thread if you want an answer to your question. You are tagging onto a thread that is 8 years old.
