Can a fiesta one be used or does it have to be 3i efi.

picky775

What are you up to now??

Rick

I'm finally doing some work on my own car for a change!

picky775

lol throttle cable should be the same mate,but peddle has a different connection,mines cable tied to mt pedalhavnt got round to sorting it out yet.

nigel b

throttle cable you need xr3i efi
also the pedal is different so you will need that as well

Antti O

If i have normal escort rs turbo with efi intake manifold +throttle housing what parts i need to make it work? Now i have rs turbo standard throttle cable cutted with locknut in the housing.
It works but it is not that good it should be.

ian r

use pedal off a mk3/4 carb and cable off a escort mk5 efi carb will fit straight on to efi t/b easyer to find than 3i efi stuff

Rick

Which is it mate, efi or carb Mk5?

I think i will just botch the std cable for now, it's only to test all the fuel injection componets work properly before i put a 2.3 in.

EFI cable and peddle mate- exactly like an xr3i setup then- its only a couple of bolts to change the pedal

Rick

but are they still available from ford?

Antti O

If someone can post part numbers for the xr3i pedal and cable..?

Cheers

the throttle cable i think is mate but not sure about peddle, just find an efi xr3i thats being broken- plenty about in ads or scrappies- i got lucky on ebay with my pedal

I bought a new xr3i throttle cable from fords about a month ago so i know they still sell them. Unfortunatly i cant find the part number. Just thought i would mention that the throttle cable clip that secures the cable to the inlet manifold is sold seperately. And by the way that cable on ebay is the right one but a rip off!!!! cheaper if you go to mr ford

can't get the cables from ford i was told discontined item

Turbo-Beal

Everyone seems to get mixed information from ford. I know i bought one as i have it on my car. Ill try and find the fins code so it might help some ppl out.

Antti O

Now i use rs turbo standard mfi throttle cable, but it is quite short for it.
If i buy escort efi cable, i have to change the accelerator pedal.. where can i grap one? There is nothing on ebay at the moment, how about ford still available and the price?

Rick

I think the cable is the easy bit - motorfactos will have them for a couple of quid (1600 zetec)

Need to find a pedal. If it's same as a carb, should be ok.

Antti O

Called for local Ford today.

xr3i escort efi cable discontinued, and same thing with the pedal.

1.6 zetec cable and carburettor pedal should fit if i am correct, used forum search earlier.

Turbo-Beal

Yes the carb one will do. I used the standard one that come off a 1.4l and its the same as the xr3i efi one.

Antti O

Hi!
I bought today pedal from the scrapyard, it is from carburettor cvh engine.
I went my garage and look down in my rs turbo pedal, i think they are same?

Confused.

ian r

mk5 efi zeta/zetec i got mine off

Turbo-Beal

If the one you got from the scrap yard has a ball joint on the end its the wrong one. The one you need has a tag with a slotted hole in the end.

fonfe

if you have the cable thereis a simple soloution, make up another plate with a solt and hole in it then drill/rivit it to your exsisting pedal, the time its taken you searching for one you could of made one!

Antti O

Do you have picture about correct one?

ian r

Antti O

I am pretty sure that i never saw pedal like that in carburettor escort.

ian r

might have come out a diesel escort van but was deffo out a mk4 van

Bit of a thread bump but the XR3i Efi cable is still available from Ford (bought one today) 2 years on from this thread contrary to a few posts on here saying it was discontinued, including someone who was told by Ford lol

The part number is 9C799, FINIS code 6617342

Under 20 quid too
