Why would a 1992 Mercury Topaz sputter and die after you step on accelerator after pulling from a stop when the engine is not cold and the gas is at various levels otherwise it drives fine?

I have the same problem. I have been told to replace the trottle plate sensor ($25) and it would stop doing that. Anybody need a trottle plate sensor? I have a new one that did not fix my problem. I understand the Ford Tempo is the same POS this thing is. If they found that problem the fix will be the same.

How do you replace brake calipers on 1992 Mercury Topaz?

After the tire has been removed, this process is rather simple. You need to remove the hoses feeding brake fluid to the caliper. You will also need a hex key to remove the two to four bolts holding the caliper on. Once this is done, attach the hoses and/or lines to the new caliper, put the brake pads back on, slide over the rotor, and reattach with the two hex bolts. Be sure to add enough fluid and bleed the brake system before driving.

Why would the throttle rev up while in neutral on a Mercury Topaz?

If you have the 2.3 L I-4, then you probably have a bad Idle Air Controller (they are notorious for going bad). It will cost you about $100 from the dealership for the part alone. It is located on the back side of the intake manifold near the center of the vehicle. It is black and has an electrical connection on top. There are 2 bolts that require an 8mm wrench or socket to remove. There is a gasket between the idle air controller ond the intake manifold. (Make sure when putting the new one on you put it on the opposite direction as you took it off) . It will basically look upside down.You can change it yourself in about 5 minutes.

Is there a fuse in one of the wires coming out of the alternator in a 93 topaz?

A fuse in the wire harness? I don't believe I have ever run across a fuse link coming out of the alternator, in either '87 to 91 model. Please correct me if I am wrong someone. If you have a charging problem, check the out put at idle and and say 2000 rpm. I have never run across a fuse link in my Chevy either.

The rpm's should be... in a standard from about 2000-3000.... and in an automatic 2500-3500. However remember that these are general estimates and depend on the size of the motor (a 4-cylinder will have higher rpm's than a V6, and so on) and the condition of the car (fluids/maintenance/etc.).
