Hi all, Mick here. I have decided to join as this looks like a great forum to learn more about the technical side of current Fords, particlarly my BF Falcon (stock, MarkII, XT....and planning to keep it that way) which I purchaed from Jefferson Ford in Mentone VIC and have run into a few problems with the car, which I will post in the relevant section of this forum. Thanks!

Welcome everyone.
cspong69, be a good idea to post your question in either the AU Falcon.com.au section of the forum HERE or in the AU-BF Falcon section HERE I am sure a member will be able to answer your question in one of those sections. Cheers Col

Hi Ford fans ! I love the old classic Fords, like the Escort Mk 1 or 2, very fond of Cortina Mk III and I fancy Ford Granadas (shame they never made it here from England). I drive a modern Falcon but maybe one day I'll get a classic. Look forward to checking out pics of cars here.
Cheers JessieXT |

My name is Matthew and I am new to this forum. Please be kind to me. Do not have me looking for skyhooks or send me out for a long wait (weight) I do have a lot of left handed screwdrivers however. I joined to gain an insight into the joy and indeed great fulfillment that anything automotive can deliver. I look forward to meaningful exchanges. thanks, matthew, aka nudgelboy |

Hello to the FORD Forums Community. This is my first post.
My name is Ian ORRELL and am a retired Mechanical Engineering Associate/Technical Teacher and a Vietnam Veteran. My interests are many. Since I retired in 2002, I don't know how I ever found time to go to work. Has anyone found days with 48 hours. I've knocked on Heaven's Door a couple of times and life is too short. Too much to do. I have owned a few Falcons XC, XF, ED Series ll and at present an AU Series ll. I have rebuilt the C4 XC, Borg Warner 35 Escort Mk1, Borg Warner 40 XF, and XF Ghia. The Au Series ll has a BTR 4 Speed in it and I'm not too sure of the transmission Number. The Name Plate is damaged. At the moment, I am having trouble with Reverse. you can feel Reverse come on, but not a full boosted line pressure [I think] If there boxes are similar to the EB Series ll 4 Speed, then the C3 Clutch should be engaged, B2 Band should be applied. S1 & S2 should be ON. Looking at the Fluid paths, these two elements are supplied with booster line pressure when engaged. I haven't looked at it yet, but has anyone had a similar problem. Question What is the Correct Transmission Number BTR ????? Kind Regards Ian ORRELL aka meanu |

Hello Friends
I am Ran and joined this excellent knowledge base site just 2 days ago. I have a question for my ED FALCON 93 car When I put it on drive its idle RPM goes down and when Ac on it goes down further. It never stalls but it looks some thing going wrong . I replaced O2 and map sensor cleaned the isc valve throttle body. But no use. Car goes pretty well no dramas but I am concerned with the low idle rpm. The ecu should maintain it. Please help thanks friends and cheers |

Hi,
I've been viewing for many years but ceased when the search function disappeared when enter key was pressed on my tablet following a query. May be I need an app to function in this Android tablet format? My first post on any forum Thanks Earl |

Am new to the forum. Have finally done it. Bought a g6E Turbo Anniversary model. So now you young ones can look at me and say "What a waste, a fast car like that being waisted on an "Old Fart".
Its a really lovely car. Pity Ford left their run so late. |
