1994 Mercury Tracer Questions & Answers
Fuses
I suggest check the position 17, 20AMP for Cigar Lighter (page 277 and next for FUSES)...
This and other details can find it in your
Mercury Tracer Owners Manual.
Hope this help (remember rated this post).
We changed the water pump and timing belt on the car, now it will not crank. What could be the issue?
Make sure you have everything connected back up. Check battery cable connections for a clean tight connection. Check the small black with red stripe wire on the starter for power with the key held in start position. If it has power, have the starter tested. If no power on the wire in start, suspect the clutch start switch on the clutch pedal if a manual transmission, or the neutral/park switch near the gear shifter if an automatic.
I was driving my '94 Mercury Tracer 1.9 when it suddenly died, like it ran out of gas or something, and it just will not start up. Any ideas on what could be the problem? We have changed the water pum
Sudden no starts are usually gas or spark (ignition) related. If you spray some starting fluid into the intake and it fires up briefly, then you know it is a fuel problem- a bad fuel pump, or less often a fault in the fuel injection circuit.
If the engine doesn't respond to the starting fluid, check for spark on a spark plug wire with the engine cranking. Purchase a cheap spark tester at a parts store. It's easy to check for spark this way, and no chance of getting a shock. Another way is to pull off a wire from a plug, take out the spark plug and reattach to the plug wire. Lay the spark plug on a metal piece of engine, where the plug threads are touching metal. That grounds the plug. Now have your helper be cranking the engine over while you watch for a strong blue spark at the spark plug tip. If you have a blue spark consistently, you can assume the ignition is working properly.

Car will turn over but not start, getting fuel to the valve next to the injectors
Takes 3 things to get a car to start. Fuel, Compression, Ignition. Sometimes just because you were low on fuel you believed you were out. The problem may have been elsewhere. Check spark to insure you have the ignition part down too. If you have fuel to the rail then the problem lies with another component. Timing, sensors, rotor if equipped, plug wires, or there is compression which is least likely. Good luck and check for engine codes. :)
Blower fan cuts on and off
Could be the switch, blower resistor, blower motor, or a bad connection in the wiring. Do you have power and ground at the blower motor when it is not working ?
How do you unlock a flywheel?
whats "locked" is most likely the torque converter which the flywheel is attached to. torque converter should be replaced
