  • Eric, I was researching data on swapping in a 5.0 into an Explorer sport and I came across your postings. After reading for a while I saw you talked about living in MN, and to my surprise when I looked where you lived I saw Duluth!! Are you still open to giving advice?? I live just north of Duluth in Rice Lake. Let me know if you are still open to helping a fellow Ford guy out.
    Back in 11/21/2006 @ 8:09 pm you had stated to Kenny's2k that you put the eatc in your sport and that you wired it wrong. I too have put one in mine could you please tell me or link me to how you did this? I put the limited wire harness under the dash of my sport and can't get eatc to blow anything. Did a diagnostic and it said "041" which is a ambient temp sensor left open. I have the blower control,(have not installed it yet), because of the wiring difference. From what I have read they, (Limited & Sport), are both 5 wire hook ups but I think only2 or 3 are the same leaving 2 or 3 to guess at. I could help me greatly if you could tell me how you did it.
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Sincerely,
    Robert
    Hi Eric, how's it going there? I've had to push off plans, and discovered I need a new gas tank for my Mountaineer recently. Corrosion in the tank can't be left untouched, it's either replace it or treat it somehow. I hope my 99 is okay when I get a look at it. Regards,
