89 Ford bronco2
i have a 1989 bronco2 2.9 v6 4wd auto. i recently replaced rings, rod and main bearrings, head gaskets. when i tried to start the only way to get it to run was hold the throttle wide open ( it ran but FAR from good acted like it was flooded ). i can get it started how i just said and pull the fuel pump fuse out and it will run fine UNTIL the fuel runs out. i can keep it running while taking fuse in and out. when i put fuse back in it seems like it floods instantly. any help will be appreciated.

1989 Ford Thunderbird 1989 lx
Hello, I have a 1989 T bird and the truck lock just stopped working (when I turn the key, it turns but with no release)...I need to get into the trunk and the trunk release button in the glove box is also broken. How do I get into the trunk? What if I take out the back seat but I am not sure if I can even do that without access to the trunk. Do you know how to remove the back seat from this model? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

02 Ford 2002
My 2002 Ford Taurus has been having light issues. When I am driving it the car locks keep locking and unlocking. Then when I have the car parked for 15 minutes or more, the car lights inside come on and stay on. I have unhooked the battery because if I leave it on no matter where I go it will not shut the lights off inside or on the exterior light where the mirrors are. These lights are connected underneath the mirrors. I have got into the car and have shut all doors. Sometimes it goes off when I slam the passenger side door , but in 15 minutes or more it comes back on. I feel like I have a haunted car. I have shut all doors and nothing works. I even tried to park the car in a level spot but it still does it .. please help

When I try to start my truck the lights come on, I hear my injectors getting fuel but no crank. I move my auto gear lever forward and start to slowly pull it down and it will crank. I replaced my NSS but it does not help, I recently had my transmission replaced also. What could I replace to fix the problem? Also is it hurting my truck to start it this way?

1992 Ford aerostar

95 Ford escort
I have a 95 Ford Escort Lx 1.9l auto. Few months ago the check engine light came on intermittently, then recently it comes on after starting engine and it runs 30 seconds. The check engine light comes on every time now after 20-30 seconds and stays on till I shut it off. Used my Snap on scanner (solus) to run an engine-off test then the engine-run tests. Neither test came up with a code. Cannot pull a code with scanner or manually with the blinking light method. The engine seems to run fine, no missing or any problems noticed. Tried a tune up with wires, tried unplugging various input sensors with nothing being the problem. Tried swapping out ECU and the same (light came on after running 20-30 seconds). Just need the light to go out to get this trough emissions, then it can stay on as long as it wants since it doesnt seem to be affecting the car at all as far as I can tell. But I am kinda at wits end, if the computer wont tell me why its setting the CEL how the heck do I fix it? Also I did find it odd that I can unplug my MAF sensor and it doesnt affect the engine what so ever, or how the CEL comes on. But, I did get a ECT code on one engine-run test, but I thought that was because I performed the tests before it had fully warmed up. Any help would be very appreciated, thanks.

I Have a Ford Explorer 1997 4x4 Control trac V6 SOHC, 5 Speed Manual Transmission, 83500 Miles IV Had All Gear Oil Replaced, Front Differential, Rear Differential, And Transmission.

The Switch On Dash Stays Turned To AUTO When Regular Driving The Switch Also Has AUTO HIGH, AUTO LOW, I Switched To AUTO HIGH And Drove Around In 1st And 2nd Gear , When Making Turns Left Or Right It Seems Like It Binds Up And Slows Down Needing More Power Or Accelerator To Make It Move Forward.

1988 Ford ford ranger
1988 ford ranger 2.3 4 cyl A week ago I started it up and used it to jump off another car. Later on I try to start it and it would not start, the next day it started right up, but after 3-4 minutes it just died, 3 or 4 days later it started and I let it run for about 30 minutes, restarted it several times fine, the next day it started, ran for 5 minutes and died. I have changed the internal pump, it started and ran for 5 minutes and died. I have changed the fuel filter, fuel pump, fuel relay. It will try to start if I spray starter fluid in it. It seems like something is shutting down the fuel delivery and then sometimes it is opening back up.

1994 Ford ranger
My 1994 ranger 4x4 4.0L pushrod style engine will run fine sometimes and then after I drive it around for a while it acts like it is misfiring run really rough, then all of a sudden it will take off again like it isnt broke and then it will start the trouble again and eventually lose power and die. I have checked the ignition coil and it is good. I have replaced all the plugs and wires and the fuel pressure regulator. Just now it wouldnt start or it would start then run real rough for about 30 seconds and then die, but I removed the battery cable for 5 min to reset the computer and then it started up and drove just fine into the driveway. Any ideas? Maybe the ICM? or the computer? Or could it be the fuel pump slowly dying? I am at a loss. Thanks for any help.
