speed limiter

[Sexplorer Sport]

i have a 94 explorer sport with a 5 speed manual tranny. i was wondering if anybody knows if it has a speed governor or limiter of some sort. ive had the needle well past the 85 mark on the speedo, but dont know if it is limited. ive also heard the limiter is also on automatics only. any help would be appreciated.

Welcome!

Ford governors vary a bit. The range is between 95 and about 108 for most X's, later models going 105-108.
