1996-1998 Ford SOHC (2V) 4.6 V-8 Modular Engine Wiring Kits
Beginning with the 1996 Mustang and 1997 passenger cars, Ford began installing Passive Anti-Theft Systems (PATS) in their ECMs. Short of installing all the components and sensors from the donor vehicle, the only way to defeat PATS is by reflashing the ECM to completely remove it. We can perform this for you. During the reflashing process, we can set up your ECM for aftermarket fuel pumps, electric fans, reduce fan switch on temperatures and disable certain emission sensors if your local smog laws permit. These early 4.6's had a coil pack for each bank of cylinders but with the 1997 passenger cars and the 1999 Mustang, Ford went to coil on plug (COP). The 4R70W and manual transmissions are used behind this engine. Other non-computer controlled transmissions can be used as well
