Missing the old ride... Out with the old in with the new...

Yep... Probe was suposed to replace the mustang so just be lucky your not all driving a 2.2 L 4cyl a 2.2L turbo, a 3.0 vulcan, a 2.0 fs02, or a 2.5 kl series...

I thank god for the SN95's birth....anything called a "probe" would scare me if I had been forced to be in it every day

If things had gone a little differently, we'd all be driving Probes right now.

Hell No. I'd prolly have a Fox-body or a Crown Vic Sport instead.

Whatever Aaron.........we know you'd buy one just for the name.

Ford Probe = soul-less, throw away compact that can be fun to drive, but is a discontinued, mass produced POS irregardless.

Ford Mustang = American icon, drag racing legend, with all the potential in the world wrapped in one of the most regarded and recognized models of all time that will never go away.

I think they named it the 'vulcan' so they didn't have to call it 'blows up over 250 rwhp'

patience young grasshoper.

When you get the money together for mods, you will forget all about the probe.

Make sure you have a plan, so you buy things once..

Hey i had 92 Probe LX 5 speed with 3.0 Vulcan motor, i beat ***** of it and it couldn't blew up on 200k miles and its still runing (some guy bought it 3 years ago after i bought my Stang)

You all Probe heaters i helped my brother build this 96 probe GT-T http://forums.probetalk.com/showthread.php?t=1701211757
And its faster than my Stang with even low boost

HISSIN50 · Oct 12, 2006

Sorry to go :OT: but I'm not sure anyone will have an answer anyhow:

With all the Probe talk, if anyone has info on actually tracking down an airbag code (it oscillates from 51 to 13, IIRC), please let me know.

I've read about all I can find on Probetalk and even saw how one guy soldered in a new fuse in the airbag module. But the code oscillating back and forth is something I didnt find in my search. It's a '95 PSE. :salute:

Adam95GT · Oct 12, 2006

The probe is more MAZDA then ford... everything is out of a mx-6/626/melinia basically

AznStanger3v · Oct 12, 2006

So basically you just dislike most Probe owners and their taste in mods? I can understand that.

But this car OTOH, would be badass cause most ricers don't know it exists.

^^ What is that thing? There was one for sale at the Columbus NMRA event...If it wasn't an automatic I might have bought it...

'66 coupe · Oct 12, 2006

Ford Merkur
Kinda a cool 2.3 turbo car(I'd still rather have an SVO). That one is in amazing condition! How much did they want?

1slow95 · Oct 12, 2006

I can't remember exactly, but Im thinking somewhere around the $1500-1800 range.
