94 Escort GT (the last GT)
zhlédnutí 117Před 4 lety
In this video you will see the Escort GT (purchased in 2012), I am currently building now. Started out as a 94, but in reality it is now a 92 with a lot of 93 parts. This will be my greatest build, as I will spare no expense to see that this car will be too fast for any road.

    I own a 2002 Ford Taurus and it has the same identical engine layout. I appreciate the video on how to do this. You made it far more easier than other videos I have seen on this make and model. Other people for some reason waste their time on ripping out half of their engine just to do this and as you pointed out it isn't necessary. I am planning on doing this myself and will save your video for reference. And thank you as well for speaking in clear and concise English, most other folks in other videos are either hard to hear or they are only speaking Spanish and I don't speak Spanish. I will also keep in mind on keeping a "time out" chair like you have here. Thanks brother, you earned a new subscriber today (12/28/23).

    if you ziptie the butterflies open on the intake manifold, you mention having to adjust the throttle body. What do I need to do for that? Or will the computer adjust accordingly. I am currently saving a GT. Rescued in 2022.

    • @VirginiaPatriotRebel

      I took the butterflies out of the intake and capped the hole in the end of the intake that held the rod. I then hooked my scan and adjust tool to the OBD port while I positioned the idle sensor on the side of the throttle body. I can't remember the exact setting for it and sadly I don't know where my notes are at. I need to find them because my converted 93 wagon to GT running gear got close to 70 miles to a gallon. Need those programs bad.

    Excellent video, straight to the point, no wasting time. Love how you work smarter not harder. Anyway about installing the puller… another video said something about removing a 3/8 hex set screw from the pulley shaft (but it was seized so he didn’t do it). Is that accurate, or does the puller just screw in?

    • @troycharbonneau8643
      @troycharbonneau8643 Před 2 lety

      Did it today. No setscrew removal, puller screws right in. I removed the headlight, one bolt and 2 clips. Headlight opening is perfect for using the puller and don’t even have to disconnect the coolant reservoir hose. Couple things I would add. The power steering line is attached to an exhaust manifold stud with a nut, removing this nut makes it so much easier to finagle the pump in/out and reconnect connect the line. I didn’t disconnect that AC clip. But one thing I did was wrap the clip and line in a rag. When reinstalling the pulley, the wrench wants to pop as the pulley presses on, and repeatedly bangs into the AC line. The rag helps protect the line and your hands.

Then power steering pump kept getting milkey fluids in it and it was bubbling and winning!! Let’s tell you that I’ve paid over $400 in labor to about 4 different people! I’ve gotten my alternator and battery stolen and my window busted out due to my car still sitting broke down people break into shit around here obviously! Needless to say the pump is on after 2 belts , 2 power steering pumps, 3 pulleys, bc they kept snapping them! It’s been so bad! Now it’s still winning and bubbling and now it shoots out everytime I turn my car off! It was not vac sucked. But we did unhook hoses and pour power steering fluid in and turn the wheel back n forth with car running. I think it was running. Not sure. Might have been off actually. Bc I think it’s suppose to be off. But now my car is still sitting. Here after I’ve spent over 1,000 just to change a power steering pump and I lost and alternator and battery! Please HELP! Ima a girl and don’t know nothing about cars and obviously these dumb ass men I know don’t know nothing about them either. They just claim to know to get the labor money and leave with my car broke down still!
