- Bad o2 sensor and TPS sensor on your Foxbody? Does your Fox have a check engine light on? Does your Fox idle rough? Here's 2 of the possible problems and how to replace them!!

Hank Hill would be proud of how you used that Propane dude! Course I never knew he sounded like Peter from family guy LOL. Great job Jim.
Hahaha, yea. That was from a Family Guy episode. Thanks Matt.
You killed it bud, it will run 100% better too! Awesome vid!
Thanks Caleb. It definitely idles better.
For the most part, I think all the Fox's idle like that while it runs through the loop. Mine does the same for about a minute or so then settles at 7-800.
I did have rough idling issues myself and ended up replacing every sensor in the car. But what I think my problem was? The adjustable spacer that came on my new IAC. I stumbled across it by pure accident. I installed it, didn't realize it was an optional thing on the IAC. Mine still being Speed Density, it doesn't like those kinds of gadgets. Pulled it and it ran great again. Had an issue with the MAP sensor too...but that was something different that didn't affect idle. Any way, you did good, replace them both (all as you get time). And base idle rest off Brew2L 👍 Don't forget to put the spout back in after setting timing though, he didn't mention that.
Hank Hill 😂
Nice honest video, appreciate you brudda, and happy holidays to you
Looks like you have it taken care of now. Time to get out there & cruise around in that bad boy... Beautiful car!
Thanks brother. Yes cruising time!!
My stang was doing that as well I didn’t change my tps but I adjusted it with multimeter and needle and if you set it to 0.099 just less the one volt the cat idles amazing brew2l showed me that he’s the foxbody god lol
LOL 😂🤣, yes he is. I got a lot of good info from him.
I just did my o2 sensors...drivers side, hard to get off, tight, used PB, came off after a struggle. Passengers side...it was sitting right up against the starter, couldn't get the o2 tools on it (probably because of my x-pipe)...thank God the neighbor had a 7/8th wrench, go it off. Adjusted the TPS and the Idle screw and this thing is finally humming so smoothly. After a few scrapes, bruises, and shoulder pain, (working on ramps too) job is done engine is running solid.
Sweet, glad to hear.
Lol I’m struggling to get the passenger side off because of that poor ford engineering. Did you use a thin 7/8 wrench? I have just a regular one and it seems to be too blocky for it to fit in so I’m wondering if I get something more thin it’ll fit better.
@@lxtermi1906 Yes, a 7/8 wrench worked, I don't think it was a thin one...if that's still a problem for you, I'd suggest maybe needle nose vice grip pliers just to loosen it up and then try it by hand.
@@lxtermi1906 I used a socket I got from O'Reilly if I'm not mistaken
Enjoyed the video keep them coming.👍
Thanks brother
Dang, that your Fox in your sig, Tattle Tail Strangler? Clean?! What’s done to it?
Race Gas Smells Good Just bought the car this summer it was completely finished new motor Baer brakes Tremic Five speed On and on tons of work done to itThe best part got it for 9000
Tattle tail Strangler wow, nice car! Gonna sub to your channel in case you start posting some vids of it! Crazy good deal on it, and it looks killer!
Have similar issue but no check engine and only happens after computer closes loop after reaching running temp.
My idle does same thing when cold start.. but quick question take off from a light mine sputters and I hear a popping sound from passenger side if I hit gas hard sometimes dies... could it be from any of these 2 items you replaced?
Great video...did you feel any missing in the engine.? ..thanks
When I finished it was smooth and more responsive.
Tell us a bit about your former red fox
I just might
What kind of socket head was that
Not sure of the name, rented it from O'Reilly's
Was that a adjustable tps ? Or the thing under your tps
Yes, it is adjustable. Got it from LMR.
1st!
Yay, hahaha
Lol, mine does the same thing....but I have some blow by & oil carry over 😂😂😂😂
Whoa, hahaha 🤣🤣
The Fox Chamber ain’t nothing that a new engine can’t resolve !!
@@scottharvey3054 lmboooo 😂🤣😂
The Fox Chamber I can’t complain....orig engine is 29 yrs old, spark plugs, oil changes, alternator & two water pumps, she’s been a good one. I have a iron head gt40 Explorer engine being freshened up to swap with. It’ll be interesting to tear the old one down to inspect it, it has about 300k on it, everybody says coyote swap... I’m old school- I like it stockish...
@@scottharvey3054 yea coyote sounds good but, you do you and you'll be happy
Insurance, for the price it’s just money well spent
Yessir!!
