How to convert your mustang 55mm throttle body to a 65mm explorer
#2
Here you can see the connector was removed from the explorer TPS wiring

Ready to reinstall pins from explorer TPS into this mustang connector.

Pins are in, and the center plastic lock is installed…now the TPS is done.

Now, for the vent line…my explorer TB came with a vent line, but it was pointing in the wrong direction. I
sprayed it with WD-40 and used pliers to turn it to match up to the mustang’s. I didn’t see a need to remove and
reinstall with epoxy. This was still very tight once I turned it. I’ve heard some models do not have a vent tube,
but there is a spot in the housing for it. If this is the case, you will need to twist and carefully remove the tube
from the mustang and measure it. Then drill the correct hole to insert the tube into the explorer housing. For this
you may want to use epoxy to lock it in.
