thermostat and TPS

[MikeTD]

So I am going to go buy a new Thermostat and Throttle Position Sensor for my 95 mtx which I plan on replacing myself. I was just wondering if there is anything else I need to order for this? Thanks. Hopefully someone can respond quickly, cause I'm trying to leave in an hour to an hour and a half. Thanks again.

SO I guess I don't need anything else?

Just make sure you get a Ford t-stat with the jiggle valve and the o-ring gasket that should come with it.

Yeah, the Motorcraft RT-1112 (180 degree for the MTX and 192 degree for the ATX) thermostat includes the seal even though the parts book says it doesn't.

I don't need to get a coolant temperature sender or anything like that too?

Not unless its causing an issue. There are 2 sensors. One sends signal to the computer. The other is just a sender for the guage itself. I guess if you wanted to since you were draining the system you could, Thats what I did anyways.

F2AZ-12A6-48A.....I believe this is the number for the Ford ECT senser.
The sender for the guage I wouldn't worry about unless you really wanna change it.
