When are probes used?

Probes are used to investigate certain aspects of an environment that is difficult or dangerous for humans to investigate in person. Probes are usually relatively small objects that contain just enough equipment and energy to analyse specified aspects of the environment.

In space, we have sent probes out of the solar system and to Mars to name just two. The Voyager I is a probe that we sent out of the solar system. Its distance is now 100 times that of the distance between Earth and the Sun.

On Earth, we have sent probes into the deep ocean. In Medicine, we often use probes to identify the cause of medical conditions (and sometimes operate on it. Using a probe means that the doctor can make a tiny cut on the skin instead of opening up the patient which is far more risky.

Where is the clutch master cylinder on a 1996 ford probe?

Pre 1997/9 models of Ford Vehicles were self-adjusting via the clutch-foot-pedal. The pedal engages a ratchet system called the QUADRANT & PAWL and is part of the pedal. The mechanism is very similar on older Ford models of: Escort, Fiesta, Sierra, Granada, Transit & others. Newer vehicles may have a Hydraulic Clutch from 1997/9 onwards, and these work differently from the cable & pully mechanism. Clutch-fluid can be bled to improve the ability to operate the clutch, however this is not necessarily a method of adjusting the clutch.

If your reading this article because you have a broken clutch-pedal then please read on.

If when pressing the foot-pedal it feels like cable is broken, or pedal is loose, ...This is symptomatic of failure of the QUADRANT & PAWL 'ratchet' mechanism due to wear of teeth on the ratchet.

In some cases the pedal fails to pull the clutch out far enough to change gear, and may make a 'springing noise'. This is due to slippage on some worn ratchet-teeth, but the mechanism has not reached full failure. There are 2 ways to remedy the fault.

1. Change the Quadrant & Pawl, using only genuine Ford parts. #Beware of inferior mouldings that are not up to standard e.g. too soft, and do not trust 'pattern-parts' on eBay etc.

2. SHORTEN THE CABLE.

  • Disconnect SPRING ON THE FOOT-PEDAL to release ratchet mechanism.
  • Clamp cable slack (engine end).

How do you bypass the factory amp what are the color codes?

It's best to install new speakers and your own amplifier. The stock system in these cars might say JBL but it's junk and you will see this when you remove one of the speakers.

If you want to use existing speakers and amp no need to bypass amp. All that is needed is 12 volt switched power source to the amp through the harness(blue wire). Just completed on my 91 mercury grand marquis.

Why would a Ford Probe start and stall frequently?

Possible vapor lock. Caused when a car overheats, sometimes due to water pump not working, belt to pump broken, thermostat inoperative, and/or low or no antifreeze in the system. Does your check engine light or temperature gauge give an alert? The vehicle might be designed to shut itself off, to avoid major damage. Have the above issues checked out. Good Luck

Pre 1996 is OBD1, that is correct however there are various OBD1 hand held devices for checking the trouble codes for the 1993 Ford Probe GT.

The least expensive one is the INNOVA 3143 and as each model advances in price a more comprehensive and detailed result is obtained.

The trouble codes can be obtained by finding the EEC connector under the hood, the 93 Ford Probe is on the driver side near the fuse/relay block.

What is a turbo transmission?

A turbo transmission is does not involve turbo in the conventional sense at all. A turbo takes exhaust gases straight off the cylinder head via a special exhaust manifold, and uses that air velocity to force air into the intake. This has a cost of having the incoming air to the engine hotter than what is ideal, but there is a trade off with any system. A turbo transmission, such as GM's turbo hydramatic, is merely a name GM assigned to the transmission. GM's Turbo Hydramatic 700R4 transmission was their first with an overdrive gear. This overdrive gear was a higher gear ration than previous transmission's 3rd gear and gave much better gas mileage on the street. So, a turbo transmission does not actually use turbo, it is just a name for a transmission with another gear for highway use. Turbo in this sense is just a name.

How do you tighten the fan belt on a 1996 Ford Probe?

There is no "fan belt"; the 2.5L V-6 has two accessory drive belts, both with tensioners (loosen the large nut in the center of the tensioner pulley, and adjust the threaded adjustment rod), and the 2.0L I-4 has a single accessory drive belt with a tensioner (loosen the clamp bolt & adjust the threaded adjustment rod).

Where is the clutch gasket on a 1993 probe gt?

In my 20 plus years of working professionally on cars, and for Ford Motor Company, I have never heard of a "clutch gasket." I have absolutely no idea what you are asking about. But if you want to see some funny blank stares, you could go to the parts dept of your nearest Ford dealership and ask for a clutch gasket. Are you talking about a seal in the hydraulic clutch system? If so, then you don't need to worry about finding a seal, since hydraulic clutch componets are serviced as assemblies. In other words, if you have a leaking master cylinder, replace the master cylinder. If you have a leaking slave cylinder, replace that.

What does the fuel shut off for a 1994 probe look like?
