The Ford Tempo was introduced as a 1984 model to replace the Ford Fairmont. Then it was replaced by the 1995 Contour. That's a production run of 10 years. (1984-1994).
1994 was the last year the Tempo was made. You blew a fuse.
Group 58, 750 cold crank amps top mount posts.
Take off the old one and put a new one back in that spot.
Which mount? front, transmission, rear. Take a good look at it, and have some air tools. Just have to unbolt, but you really do need the air impact.
Using a jack, keep the engine supported. One at a time, unbolt a motor mount, the engine may have to be raised slightly to remove the mount. Fit the new mount back into the hole and bolt in place.
I have the exact same pproblem with a 1988 tempo, replaced the alternator and battery, still the alternator only reads 5 volts when running. Can't figure it out, do you know of any websites that would have a diagram of the alternator for a tempo?
The car needs a tune-up, or the motor mount(s) are bad.
Loose or corroded battery cables Weak battery Bad starter Bad neutral switch
