Maxpower is apparently operating under the delusion that the >Neon is made by Ford. Some Ford vehicles *do* shut off the fuel if you >crank them with the accelerator on the floor. Are you sure of this? I had a cam position sensor go in my Neon (which is actually made by Chrysler, not Ford), and it took a bit of cranking to start. I remember that holding the pedal to the floor actually caused it to not start at all. So I thought it was a little odd that you said there was no "clear flood" mode in Chryslers. So I went out to my Neon (which is still made by Chrysler), held my foot to the floor, and cranked. Sure enough, nothing. If I backed off a bit on the throttle, it roared to life. So I talked to a guy that does the technician training for Chrysler (yes I'm sure he doesn't do the Ford training) and he was quite insistent that there was a clear flood mode on Chryslers. Where did you get the idea that Chryslers didn't have a clear flood mode? |

Oh, y'know, just ownership of six fuel-injected Chrysler products made between '89 and '97, *none* of which had a "clear-flood" mode. DS |

You are wrong on this one. All Power module/Logic module, SMEC, SBEC 1, 2 2A, 2B, SBEC3, 3A, and 3+'s and FCC controllers have all had clear food modes. That list covers all FWD vehicles from 83 1/2 through 2001 and RWD vehicles 88 through 95. In 96 all the RWD product got JTEC (Jeep/Truck Engine Controller) controllers and the JTEC and JTEC+'s also have a clear flood mode, it just works a little different form the others. The JTEC's and SBEC's are being replaced by NGC (Next Generation Controller) 1, 2 and 3's. I haven't looked at those closely, but I bet they have it in some form, probably the JTEC version. SBEC/FCC/Power Module - Logic Module version of clear flood works like this: open the throttle and then crank the engine. When the throttle is opened with the key on, engine off ; the PCM zeros the pulse width until the RPM breaks the start to run transfer RPM (about 400 - 450 RPM). If the engine isn't flooded, then this action will cause a no start condition. JTEC has 2 pulse widths, cranking pulsewidth and run pulsewidth. To activate the clear flood mode on these, you must start cranking the engine and then open the throttle to wide open. If the PCM sees the RPM input from the crank sensor and then it sees the TPS go to WOT and the crank RPM doesn't get to the start to run transfer RPM, then the cranking pulsewidth will start retreating towards 0 mS. This JTEC mode is extremely hard to demonstrate, but is much more realistic in the way it works. Bill Sprague, Chrysler technician 1986-1996, Chrysler Technical Trainer 1996-2002 |
