Welcome to another episode of The Eight Nine Garage. In this episode, we do a base idle reset on Frankie the Fox Body. I use the Ford recommended method. Let's see if it works with the E303 and A3M combo.. Or, will I have to use alternative measures? Subscribe and ring that bell to stay current on all the haps with Frankie.
Buy the newer model of the Extech Multimeter that I used in this video:

Did you have to swap the PCM?
Looks like you fixed it. Over 25 years straight of owning fox bodies, I've found the ignition module is often the culprit. They get really hot mounted on the dizzy. So much so, that on my 91 LX I've relocated it with a homemade heatsink. No problems since on this car.
Aw man, this right here is the best idle reset video on youtube! Glade you mentioned your channel on junkyard doggs most recent video. Subbed đ€đŒ keep em coming!! (:
I think the trick is getting it set on the base idle 725 or lower. We all contribute the stalling to low idle so we try to set it higher to compensate but the computer will shut out the control if it cant control the idle low enough to learn the bottom drop of the idle witch causes the stall. Im going to test this theory tomorrow ive got a 92 doing the exact same thing heck even the a/c will stall it at idle. Thanks for the vid it helped a lot.
Your starter turned over fast as hell. My starter sounds like the battery is damn near dead even with BRAND NEW battery. đ€·ââïžđ€·ââïžđ€·ââïžđđ
I have an issue with cold starts. It rough idles for about 3 minutes and then it clears up. I have changed the coolant sensor and purchased the pcv kit and air charge temp sensor but havenât taken it to the mechanic. I will definitely try this after replacing the act, pcv kit, and a new c&l 76mm maf. đ
Do you adjust timing before or after?
I want to adjust my tps and my timing. But I canât start these steps until my misfiring situation is figured out. I donât want to get my 302 to operating temps while itâs misfiring
Subbed!! Glad it worked. I will definitely reference this vid next time I have to do mine on my 91 LX Vert. Thx
Dood video I did new pcv kit cleaned throttle body sparks and wires. Idle now is all ver the place.
This is the best explanation ive seen of this yet. Done the procedure a few times now but always come back for a refresh! Thanks! Works with the X3Z PCM I have!
I just wanted to say thank you for the video. I've been having problems with hot starts for a while and this cured it!
Saved this 1 for sure. * Thank U *
Wow that was an awesome video! Very clear and easy to follow. Nice job man!
by far best one I seen on youtube. easy to understand you.
Look at that sparkly clean gauge cluster!!! đ€©đđ

Thank you very much, you are a Master, grettings from Lima- PerĂș
Great video .I have 86 GT i bought new in april 86 .have set tps many times over the years.doing idle reset has her idling awesome.
I've seen where if you are having trouble in this area but with a surging idle and getting egr codes, you can change out the coolant temperature sensor and it will clear it up.
