How do you fix a broken gas gauge needle on 1995 Ford Probe GT?
I suspect that the sender is bad or the wiring to it. The fuel sender is mounted along side the fuel pump which is located in the fuel tank. If your pump was just replaced maybe the sender was damaged in the process. It may just have gone bad also.

I dont have a firing order but can explain what they are real easy. On the motor from left to right starting on the top is 1,3,5 then the bottom is 2,4,6. and on the distributor they are already got the numbers on them.
Because it's a Ford.
Take out the center counsil first, look for screws, and work your way up to the dashboard.
Alternate Answer
I have recently replaced the gauges in my 92 probe, did not remove the center console. first i removed the steering wheel (with a bolt puller, take the horn pad off first by removing the 2 screws on the back of the steering wheel) then i just removed the paneling around the steering collumn, then remove the instrument cluster paneling (looks like two pieces, but its not, there's a rubber gasket that holds them together so take them off in one piece, make sure to remove the black paneling that is right in front of the gauges) now when you remove the gauge cluster, make sure to be very carefull with the wiring and speedometer cable on the back of the panel, just press the the white slot release that covers the end of the cable, should come out very easily. then take the 4 retaining screws out that secure the instrument cluster (gauges) to the dashboard. Now when i did this i ran into a problem, i was not aware that the oil, gas, and water gauges would need to be in the same stop (either mark them or take a picture, make sure the negative terminal of the battery is removed first) here's what I've found if you run into this same problem, the result is that those three gauges will just point at 6:00 if it were a clock.
here's another answer, with the proper way of keeping the gauges working. How do you remove the instrument cluster of a 94 Ford Probe to install glow gauges? In: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/FAQ/582[How_do_you_remove_the_instrument_cluster_of_a_94_Ford_Probe_to_install_glow_gauges]
Answerfirst you should disconnect the negative battery cable if you have an air bag equipped probe. wait for two minutes, then on your dash, there are some dash retainer screws which need to be removed, there should be 2 abouve the cluster on the trim piece, and some have 1-3 underneath the steering column. after that, remove the 4 screws holding the gauge in, pull it out, then remove the wiring harness, not the wires from the harness. then take the cluster to a well lit are and remove the screws holding the plastic cover on. if you have screws holding the gauges in place, remove those as well. you may need to remove the needles to get the gauges to fit if you cant slip them over the needles, as for the tachometer needle, temp needle, oil needle and battery needle, you need to either draw a picture of where they are or take a picture of them to place them back later. if you have to remove the needles, only replace the speedometer to 0, and the fuel gauge meter to where it last was when you had the car turned on. after you have the new gauges on, put as much back together as possible, and take the cluster back to the car with the pastic cover off. hook the wiring harnesses up to the cluster and hook the negative cable back to the battery. turn on your car and wait about a minute or so, then replace all other needles to the position where they were when you took the picture of them. turn off the car and remove the negative battery cable, wait another two minutes. hook up the wiring to your parking lights as this is the best place to draw power. and hook the ground to a secured ground suck as the fender or something metal on the body/chassis. replace the plastic cover and replace the cluster in the dash. attach all screws to reassemble the dash. finito.

How do you compress the rear caliper piston on a '94 ford probe gt?
The proper method is how it is described originally below with the removal of the cap on the back of the caliper and turning in the Allen screw which retracts the E-brake adjuster inside the caliper. There are some cars where you rotate the piston itself into the caliper, if you have that type of caliper you need a cheap tool from the parts store which has pins that locate in the holes in the piston and you put a socket on the other end to rotate it. If you use pliers on the caliper piston you will score it and screw up the seal.

AnswerThere is a small bolt in the center of the backside of the caliper. Remove that bolt and you will see a small Allen head screw inside it. Loosen that screw as you apply moderate pressure to the front of the piston.Can't start 1990 ford probe lx has all lights but wont turn over?

What other Ford Probes will part interchange with a 1996 madza 626?
Most of them, 94-98 The 93:s second gen have a different wiring than the 94-98 when it concerns the engine electrics but mechanically thay are more or less the same. My 94 SE is running with the disty from a Mazda 626, the driveshafts from an Ford Probe GT V6 - 97, the brake discs and brake pads for a Mazda 626. The engine is more or less equal to the Mazda 626 egine, the valve cover differs. The chassie is more or less mechanically a 626. The Probe is an MX-6 with different valve cover and bumpers and the MX-6 is the sportier model of an 626.

If a 1994 Ford Probe's dash lights have gone out is it just a fuse or something more serious?
Being that I am also the proud owner of a '94 Probe, I should answer this. First I would check the fusebox that is located under the driver's side area because it sounds like that is all that is wrong (a blown fuse). If you can't find anything there then there is another fusebox under the hood. Also, check the dimmer wheel that is to the left of the steering wheel. It could be too far over so that the lights appear to be out when they have just been dimmed. Hope this gives you a little direction.

What is the normal idle speed for a ford probe gt you have mine set at 1500 rpms is this normal?
The idle speed depends on the year model. The GTs from 1993 to 1995 should have idles speed between 650 and 800rpm. I believe the 1996 and 1997 models had a slightly different idle speed, but either way 1500 sounds too much. You can adjust idle speed on your car of course.
Is a Ford Probe 2.5 interchangable with a Mazda 2.5?
A ford probe 2.5 is a Mazda 2.5/.......Mazda produced the engines.....Subtle difference but ultimately the same crappy motor......Its poop
