Ford ThunderBirdFord thought they'd take their own stab at the nostalgia business. There are quite a few last-century icons that wear the blue oval. For a revival subject, why not use a car famous enough to have been the subject of Beach Boys songs, starred in George Lucas movies, and has been gone long enough to be missed? Why not indeed. In 2002, the Thunderbird was reborn.
Can anyone help me find some codes for my 1993 v-6 non supercharged tbird?? Iīve looking in the internet but I havenīt found but 3 of these codes...
335
115
718
132
632
715
718
All these came up in my tbird after a flood in México and I havenīt fix it since then. Also of of those talk about an electronic transmission which I believe my car doesnīt have one.
Please help.
I disconect the MAF sensor and nothing occurs. Engine has rought iddle and poor performance plus it smells a lot to gasoline.
Is there any chance that bad a bad plug cable or bad spark plugs can cause all those trouble codes??
Engine is iddling roughtly but when I step on the gas, it works good without running rought.

It could, give it a shot, buy new plugs, wires, air filter, fuel filter and see what happens. Not too expensive, might need a new cap and rotor too. And can I ask how you scanned? Also, if im not mistaken, if you disconnect the MAF while the car is running and it doesnt run any different, I believe that means your MAF is bad.

As it sounds... I did disconected the maf sensor while engine was running and nothing happened, same for the TPS sensor.
Iīll try by changing the wires and plugs, becouse it sounds like a bad plug to me. Iīll keep you posted.
MAF sensor unreachable. TPS open circuit.
thatīs what Autozoneīs guys told me....
I didn't think that a 93 had MAF so I went to Rockauto who lists a MAP sensor for your car, not a MAF

I'm not a professional mechanic, take my suggestions with a grain of salt, or a cup of coffee

According to autone guys and local mechanics it does have a maf sensor, but thatīs not the point anyway. even with new plugs and wires itīs running the same way.
What should hapen if I disconect the maf sensor with engine iddling?? (mine didnīt do a thing or a noise). What if i disconect the tps?? (mine rev the engine a few for like 3 seconds and thatīs all).
When I changed the plugs, I found one with a lot of oil and like mud or some kind of stuf like that, which make me think that cilynder is not working.
Does someone knows how to check injectorīs voltage( how much volts should I read from it???)???
Can a stuck valve show my engineīs sympthoms??
Isnīt there any solution or liquid to add to the gasoline to help free that valve??
