sounds like a NASTY swap. do you have a build tread? or pics? u got my interest. but i don't know about the VSS.

 

Let's put this in Engine and Transmission Swap. []
(I also edited your title to clarify the question)

 

There is a 'build thread' on another forum.
Not sure if it's OK to plug it here.
I can start one here aswell?

Here's a pic of the car as it stands at the moment (only small things to do before i can fire it up!)

Martein.

 

dude, that thing looks nice.

 

The OSS is a hall effect sensor similar to the crank sensor on the engine. You would need the proper computer to use this signal. The signal rate is 89 holes per revolution. There is a ground, 12V, and signal wire.

 

According to the information and scheme that came with the Autometer gauge, it can use this signal. I just need to know, which pin on the sensor is what.

 

Is there a blue/white wire and a black/orange wire? I can't remember what color they were from when I did the clutch.

 

Ok I'll see what I can dig up. It's been a while since I've looked at this stuff.

If nothing else I'll take a voltmeter to my friend's SVT this weekend.

 

Thanks a lot for this, really appreciate this.

Martein

 

he doesnt have wires, he just has the sensor sticking out of the trans.

 

Yea... I just saw that...

 

ok i am working on the car tonight hopefully i remember to test this

 

gah. I forgot. I have to bring something to my friends house soon though so I will try to grab it then.

 

Ok, thanks a lot.
Today I had to pull the engine and gearbox out, because I had a leaky waterpump (gasket between the engine and pumphousing)

With a bit of luck I might be able to start her up for the first time this weekend.

Here's a slim spec list on the engine/gearbox combo:

2.0 L Zetec (Series 3)
6 speed gearbox, Quaife diff, Clutchmasters flywheel/clutch package (spec3)
custom driveshafts
custom stainless exhaust
45mm jenvey throttlebodies
stand alone management (weber aplha)

At the moment it uses std camshafts, but will upgrade these soon too.

Thanks a bunch, Martein

 

45mm jenvey throttlebodies

itb's?

 

oops my bad.

They have individual butterfly valves, but are twins (kinda like the twin webers)

ps sorry about the dust, I just got myself a California Car Duster, and it looks spot on now

 

Ok, I managed to get hold of a wiring-diagram.

http://img510.imageshack.us/img510/5781/etis1.jpg

According to this diagram it's connected as follow:

+ 12v pin 3 gn/rd
signal pin 2 wh/bu
ground pin 1 bk/og

So if anyone can help me out with which wires go where on the sensor (as there are no marks/numbers on the sensor) that'll be great.

Thanks in advance!

 

Hey Guys,

i know this Thread is very old. But i have the same Problem like Martein, just a little different.

I have put a 2.0 Zetec Silvertop incl. the 6-Speed Getrag into my 90s Fiesta.
Which pins should I use from the VSS sensor, I know now.

But with how much voltage operates the Hall sensor?

I don´t think its 12Volts. I guess rather with 5 volts. But im not sure.
Does anyone know it exactly? I do not want to damage the sensor, due to high voltage!

Sorry for my bad English and many thanks for your answers in advance
