Ford Probe

Clutch master cylinder reservoir.

my 97 ford probe GT does not start sorry for the mistakes

1. Open trunck/liftgate 2. Remove the top screw holding the tailight housing cover to the body. 4. Remove the black plastic tailight housing covers. (They have snaps holding them in place) 3. Slide/Shift the left sided tailight housing to the left, vise-versa if removing the right. Dont be afraid to use a bit of force, they will slide out. 5. Rotate the bulb holder 1/8-turn counter clockwise and pull it out of the housing.

did you try reseting the fuel cutoff in the truck. it will be under the carpet, drivers side, there will be a sign.

Unscrew the screws on the side of the door panal and around the door handle on the inside and pull the window lever off. On Probe's with power opt's, the screws will still be near the controller, just don't pull too hard on the panel. You can unclip the controller once the panel is loose.

I had problems too, but the trick is, u have to either get the proper hooks to fit inside the wholes on the radio to pull it out, or devise your own from 2 pieces of bent coathangers. You will find 2 wholes on each side of your tape deck approximately 1 1/2" apart on top of each other. Insert the devises in both wholes and simultaneously while pushing away from each other, and pulling you should be able to free the deck. Be advised that Ford also has a pre-amp located somewhere along the wiring of your speaker wires so that once you do get the radio out, you have to find that amplifier and re-route the wires from that point as well otherwhise an aftermarket stereo will not work. Ford Sucks when it comes to the stereo department huh? Good Luck

Engine overheats When a car or truck overheats idling, in town, on the highway, while towing, etc. it is important to find out the reason to prevent engine damage. First, with the engine cold, make sure the radiator is full of coolant; if it is low, fill it and keep the radiator cap off while the engine idles to insure all air is bled out of the system ( air trapped in the system can cause overheating also). Check the coolant level daily; if the coolant goes down without visible leaks, it may be a head gasket starting to leak which will also cause the heater to blow cold air due to the lack of available coolant. If the coolant stays full, but the car continues to overheat, the next step is to replace the thermostat in the engine and flush the cooling system if that has not been done over the last few years.Buy a thermostat at a parts store and a PRESTONE flush kit which has excellent directions on the package.After completing these steps and the vehicle still overheats, have your cooling fan sensor/switch ( if equipped)checked out to insure it is coming on. Water pumps are seldom the cause as they are mechanical and will continue to work until their bearings give out. Finally, the radiator itself is often the problem as it tends to build up corrosion internally which prevents it from transfering engine heat to the coolant. Remove it and have it 're-cored'. One of these steps will solve the problem.

1989 to 1997 ( according to Answers.com )

it is behind the air filter box, before the curved duct that carries air to the throttle body.

1. Remove the screws and pull down on the front portion of the fender liner. This provides just enough room for your hand to reach in and access the two bulb holders.

2. Turn the bulb holder counterclockwise and pull it out of the housing.

3. Pull the bulb from the holder and replace.

** What the book DOESN"T tell you is that it's a whole lot easier if you turn the tires opposite from the side you need to get too. Also, if you have really large4 hands or forearms, you may need to take the tire off altogether.

Can a Mazda 626 engine fit in a Mazda MPV mini van?

5w-30

It is connected to the starter.it is on the driver side of the engine at the back side.

Yes, are you still needing one?

two types of ignition systems. On some models, the module is mounted on the outside of the distributor body, just under where the cap mounts. It is a rectangular, flat box with a large electrical connector. The second type of ignition is controlled by the ecm, or main computer which is located under the center of the dash, behind the console.

your firing order for your probe is 1-4-3-2

145 hp and 195 ft-lb torque from factory at 7 psi boost.

the correct alighnment is at TDC marked on crankshaft pulley = groove in tail end of both cam,s vertical with the pulley dowels uppermost on both cam,s = no 1 lead on distributer firing. cam pulleys are universal inlet cam should use the I and respectivly the exaust will use EX to identify location of dowel locating slot used

The turn Signal flasher is under the steering column. It is a square grey or green 7 prong flasher. Here is a place were you can buy a new one. http://www.google.com/products?hl=en&q=ford+probe+flasher+&um=1&ie=UTF-8

My neibor recently had the same problem with his 89 Probe. First remove and check the spark plugs. Fuel-Injector Cleaners, etc. tend to foul out the plugs. They may or may not need replaced. Just take them out and if they are black and/or look or feel wet, clean them up with a wire brush and a clean cloth and put them back in. If it still wont stay running, check the computer for codes. The procedure shouldn't be too hard to find on Google or similar. subminted by MiddleEartHippie(on AIM) I just had this problem with my 89 probe and it drove me crazy, turned out to be distributor needed replacement, also my tachometer went alittle hay wire while i kept foot on gas to keep it running.

I am not a mechanic. However my Probe's starter had died and when i talked with the mechanic he told me it is somewhere below the engine. The only easy way to reach it is to raise the car up. You can try the haynes manual for more detailed information.

The starter is located on the back of the engine to the right (if your facing the front of the car) of the oil filter where the tranmission bolts into the engine. If you want to remove it you will need to jack the car up to get to the bottom bolt and the solenoid wires and remove the air filter box to reach the top bolt that bolts in from the transmission side. I believe all bolts are either 12 or 14 mm.

you need to check your fuses first ( sounds like it) they are on underdash (drivers side)

For the 1994, you have to remove the negative battery cable, then depress the brake and hold it in for 5 seconds to reset the check engine light.
