fords4life Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 Hoping one of you can help. I’m sure they are around here somewhere, but I’m not having any luck. I’m looking for the accelerator cable for my 1986 5.0 EFI and was trying to see if there was a part number for the fuel injector harness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted February 12, 2020 Share Posted February 12, 2020 The throttle cable will be: 85/ F-U150/250 - - AOD 8 302,351 EFI E5TZ 9A758-A 40" long But on the fuel injector harness, I can't find anything. Does yours have a label of any kind on it? If so I might be able to cross reference that ID # to a part #, but other than that I can't find electrical harnesses. Sorry.

Does yours have a label of any kind on it? If so I might be able to cross reference that ID # to a part #, but other than that I can't find electrical harnesses. Sorry. I'll look when I'm at work tomorrow. Injector loom should be either a 9D930 or 12A581... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(ENGINE CONTROL SENSOR)". But 9D930 is "WIRE ASSY. (FUEL CHARGE)" and that's probably the one. Here's what the catalog shows for that. But it appears that the catalog doesn't list the 302 correctly in '86 as I believe all '86 302's were EFI. So I'd say the part # is E6TZ 9D930-C and it will be marked E6TB-AA.

Therefore, the injector loom would be a 9D930. All north american 302s were EFI from '85 on, 351s and 460s got EFI in 1988. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the other literature shows that there were both 2V and EFI 302's in '85. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the throttle cable part number was also superseded multiple times ending at E9TZ9A758U which will be much easier and less expensive to find.

Keep in mind that the old fact books were sent to print about 6 months before production. Lots of changes happened by the time production began.

I know I wasn't "there", but I just checked only three documents and all three agree that there were 2bbl-equipped 302's in 1985. I know there are errors in the literature, but when all three of the ones I checked agree, it seems pretty conclusive to me. First, the page I quoted from previously is the 1985 Dealer Facts Book and it says that the EFI is being added as an option. Next is the 1985 brochure, and both the August of '84 and the January of '85 versions have this statement that the EFI is optional: And third is the Master Parts Catalog itself, which was last published in 1994. And this snippet from the MODEL APPLICATION TO PARTS LIST CROSS REFERENCE CHART shows both a 2bbl and an EFI 5.0L for 1985. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Vinny mentioned a while back that the early '85 302's were still carbed, and that the full switch to EFI didn't actually take place until around February of 1985. I thought he said that most 302 trucks with a build date of 02/85 and later were EFI, and before that were mostly carbed. It might have been January, but I'm not sure now.
