To bring you all in to the picture, I live down-under in the Land of Oz, and own a right hand drive ’94 Xr2 turbo. For self punishment, I recently bought myself a base model, left hand drive Mercury Capri that Ford donated to a technical college, back in the nineties .To say the least the students were not kind to the car. The original speedo shows only 5,400 miles, it has an Australian VIN (Sept 1992), the car appears to be a hybrid between your ’93 & 94 version, a kind of a '94 prototype, having some subtle differences to the centre console and rear tail lights.Twin airbags are fitted; however I suspect they are not active?
With the help of Russ from RooSports I’ve bought a few parts and plan, over a few years to restore it, bearing in mind, I’m unable to road resister the car until it is 30 year old, as it is left hand drive
The old instrument cluster was damaged , so I’ve fitted a replacement (RooSports), my problem is the fuel gauge is indicating way over the “F” mark, am I looking at a replacement fuel sender, I understand it a combined unit with the fuel pump. Also the volt meter is showing top of the gauge
the temperature, oil; speedo and tacho all work fine: The old instrument cluster was doing something similar
One other fault, on the instrument cluster, the brake warning light is constantly on ?
I may call on your advice to help tame this beast
