Hi Guys.
does anyone know if you can get a scan tool or on board diagnostic tool for the GT 40 motor.I believe that they have a special plug and an auto scan tool won't fit it. My nephew has a nautique with the engine check light on ,and we need one of these tools. cheers marc from OZ ------------- outbackski |

that end looks very familier...earlier ford plug.
well to date on these ford injected engines weve seen alot of fuel pump issues and a bad M.A.P sensor, is there a schrader valve so you can check fuel pressure? it should be on the rail. if the reading is 2 lbs out the engine will give you problems. the map sensor controls timing advance and a new one cured another guys issue like the one you are having. i think it is an auto part and not marine specific ------------- "the things you own will start to own you" |
