falcon73

that's pretty much what it does is occasional stall coming up to lights and while idleing it will drop and then come back up Helps good mate thatnks for that I might try and put the TPS from the TB I had on it before putting the John Bowe one on see if that makes a diff

As above what is the main Symptoms of TPS failure, Throttle position sensor. I have cleaned TB and checked all hoses etc for vacuum leaks Any help appreciated

Details are PCD is right 18 inch by 9 inch Offset +35 I know the BA is 36.5 offset or so, just want to check if the small difference is a concern or they are ok to fit a BA Sedan Cheers

I would like to do that but unfortunatley time poor, weekend public holiday and then work in a call centre makes it hard, I wish to now asap as I have an opp at a replacement through a friend at a cost so trying to ascertain which would be the better way of going cost wise and as said havent had much to do with the boxes

Another question, If I got a XR6T box and wanted to just do a frshen up type service on it before install, can this be done and what would cost in servicing a T Box. Sorry for the Q's, havent dealt much with the box before

I have a BA with 4 speed auto, hence 4 speed from turbo, my box yep gearbox has done 200thou, but with some good power it maybe starting to let go so I need to decide and work out my options.

Depends on shop, definatley ring around and keep eye on ebay

I got one off ebay for $131 brand new, but havent seen them that low for a while, approx $250 odd now, exhaust shops been quoted anywhere from $300 to $450.

Any idea of cost to do that, approx would be fine, gotta take it to the minister for war

Thanks mate, what are the possibilities of a Turbo 4 speed fitting in behind a N/A. Are they stronger?

As stated in title would a 4speed auto box from a turbo fit in behind a N/a 6 and what are the differences between the boxes, if any

How can you tell if the 4 speed auto is slipping. This box has been maticulously maintained etc I have noticed this since last time at the drags and I have only driven the falcon twice since and tonight I gave it a good going due to a reseting of the ECU. When it coolish the box grabs well and slams second gear hard with the shift kit etc but once up to running temp it seems to slip a bit when changing gears and get a bit of a shutter occasionally when power is put down hard. I think by memory Castrol trans oil but dont quote me, the trouble started after I did the recent exhaust changes and dropped from 14.47 to 14.21 1/4, it was fine, then played with motor abit more and that's when it started. Car is a lot stronger just seems the auto is not handling as well putting the power through to the wheels I am thinking maybe some trans upgrades bands seals whatever can be done plus better oil any recommendations Any help appreciated

Morning, got a question about the ICC ina BA XT Falcon. Mine has green highlight lighting etc but I have just picked up a full dash including the ICC and it has blue highlights around the Cd entry etc, does this indicate a difference between the ICC or are they the same just different lighting.

M86 into a m78 or n/a 6, you need whole diff centre housing driveshafts not sure on the brake backing plates, as the m86 is larger

I have a BA xt N/a and it had approx 164rwkw, but I have a 3200 stallie which zaps approx between 10-15% of the power from the rwkw reading, so if I didnt have that on an estimate I have been told 180 odd rwkw. done exhaust ,intake , underdrives and only have the generic bluepower tune no custom tune yet I do have a barra 190 from a BF in it though

So if I get diff gears from a Borg warner M78 diff centre, like higher gears they would bolt to the centre OK or if I got a centre from something like a B/W that has the m78 model number it should bolt straight in.

so if you have a bad tune can it make the motor do something like this? in what way sorry to ask tuning and computer idiot here

Ouch, I have a spare motor from a ba xt, Barra 182 85% complete just needs TB Rocker cover Remind me not to do circle work, what rpm where you hittin

Can you explain this one? 2fardown:Was it edited? Who did the tune? And this as well Just after knowledge

What does a BA Ghia V8 falcon have as a diff is it a m78 like the N/A 6 or is it a m86 like the turbos, and can you put a m78 centre into a m86 dif housing(probably not) but thought I would check as stranger things have happened

that's what I have 164rw kw but in my case I have a 3200rpm stallie which zaps about approx 10-15% of my power from the rears, so I am actually looking at approx 183rwkw without the 3200 stallie. But the quickest N/A so far at 13.7 I think has only 164rwkw as well

It does buddy it does, lets just say the words coming out were :fear (5): I was just as I left

I bet it aint a problem. If I had the doh I would have a Turbo But cant so wont dwell, I will just make my N/A go as quick as it can and enjoy it. either way N/A ,turbo V8 they are all fords and we enjoy serving others a whooping.

Is that a sign a N/a owner quicker to reply than a turbo owner :fear (5): Only kidding

Where the challenge it that :fear (5): I can go toe to toe with a turbs to a certain piont now. Its all fun buddy
