Why would a 1992 ford probe engine rev up to 1500 rpm while in neutral?

that depends....is it right after you start it? most cars have a high idle during a cold start, its the computer compensating for a cold engine. if it were to idle at a normal speed right after starting it would run rough and most likey stall out. the idle should drop after about 30sec to a min..longer depending on how cold it is out....
if it does this all the time...theres prolly somthing wrong with the idle control solinoid (its a device usally located near the trottle body that the computer uses to adjust idle speed. it could possibly be stuck due to old age) another possibly is a vacum leak somewhere on the intake. perhaps a hose is cracked or somthing...you will prolly here a hissing sound from the motor if that's the case.

How do i bypass the neutral safety switch on my 1990 ford ranger?
The purpose of that switch is to prevent the engine being started while in gear - when the switch is operating correctly, the engine will only start while in the park or neutral settings. You would not want your vehicle to lunge forward while the engine is turning over. With a manual transmission you should be able start the engine in any gear as long as the clutch pedal is fully engaged.
What would be the cause of a 1993 ford probe with a 2.0 engine to stall out while driving down the highway?
had same problem with my probe stalling whilst driving after stopping short spell and would then restart. answer was located in immobilizer circuit which cut in at wrong times only cure was to have immobilizer disconnected.
Why would a 1991 Ford Probe only start if in neutral then eventually not start at all?
Probably the ignition switch. HavE IT CHECKED OUT> neutral safety switch......located under the shifter panel
Does the gas still run with the car on neutral?
Yes. When an automobile's transmission is in neutral, gasoline is still being pumped from the vehicle's tank to the engine. Usually cars are put in neutral while not moving, in which case the term "idling" would be used to describe the engine's activity. When idling, the energy created from the internal combustion engine is converted into electricity via the alternator to power accessories like air conditioning pumps and fans.
What would cause a 1993 ford probe gt to lose all rpms throttle response periodically while driving and while at idle PS the Fuel cutoff and check engine LED's lite?
The distributor is getting ready to go out!!!Get a new one.
Where would neutral shift be important in power system?
Neutral disconnects the rotating engine from the drive shaft, useful when the car is standing still.
Where is the mass air flow on a 1997 Ford Probe?
The mass airflow sensor would be between the engine air filter and the big engine air intake tube
Why would a 1996 Ford Probe SE stall-pause when in gear neutral and appond-during acceleration?
Mass airflow sensor is dirty or needs replaced. Try that first.
How do you fix a 96 Ford Probe that has a bad crankshaft?
If the rest of the engine is sound, replace it with a crank kit. If the engine itself was in poor shape, it would be best to rebuild the engine, or get one from a salvage yard.
What are Probe owners clubs?
I would think a Probe owners club is for owners of Ford Probe cars.
Would a probe engine fit in a Mazda?
It would depend on which Mazda. Probes were made by Mazda, and used the same engines as the 626, MX-6, and some Millenias.
What would a loud noise from the front end on a Ford Probe be?
if the noise comes from the front end while you rev the engine, and not alot of sound comes from the tailpipe, check the exhaust from the front back for cracks or breaks. it sounds like an exhaust leak to me.
