    1995 Taurus ODB1 Mods - which ones?

    Hi - I am new o this forum. Apologies is this is a rehash.

    I built a HHO cell for a car, three years ago. It was a 1998 with ODB II. Now I am looking at a 1995 Ford Taurus, with ODB1 computer. What mods are required? I am currently hunting for my manual. I am not aware if it has MAP or MAF, or if the O2 sensor voltage mods are the same as ODB II.

    Thanks & Cheers

    Artemis,

    I have a 91 Plymouth that is OBD I. I only use an EFIE and am getting great results -- about 45% increase in MPG for city driving. From what I understand, working with OBD I iseasier than the later OBD II, and you can be more agressive in your EFIE settings without throwing a check engine light. This, couples with being able to manually adjust your spark timing, may allow greater gains then are possible with the later systems.

    1 dry cells with nineteen 6"x8" 316L ss plates, driven by constant current PWM set at 35 amps (13.3V at PWM). 28% KOH electrolyte. Total measured output 2.5 lpm. Mileage went from 18 to 26 mpg, all city driving (44% increase). EFIE set at .370 and I still need to play with ignition timing.

    COOL! - thanks for the tip. So any basic EFIE would do the trick?

    Now if i can only figure out where to locate everything. This thing has a very cramped engine compartment

    Same with mine. That's why I installed everything in the trunk.

    No room in-between the bumper and radiator?

    What about removing the foam that's in front of the bumper and placing it there?
