Automotive Websites for getting datasheets for Ford 220HP engine sensors?

Click For Summary
Finding datasheets for Ford 220HP engine sensors, such as cam and crank sensors, can be challenging as these documents are often proprietary to Ford and not publicly available. OEMs typically do not publish detailed specifications for their custom parts, making it difficult to obtain this information. Users may need to identify the original sensor manufacturers and their part numbers for better chances of finding relevant datasheets. Reverse engineering may be necessary if the specific data is not accessible. Ultimately, the need for these datasheets should be clarified, as alternatives may exist for non-Ford applications.

@jack action do you have a good source for this type of info?

What are you wanting to do with these datasheets? Re-program your ECU or something?
 
This may be nearly impossible if those parts are custom made for Ford. The datasheet is likely a Ford document. Even if they don't think it's a trade secret, they have no reason to publish them. This is a really common way for OEMs to specify their parts, even if they are virtually the same as one that has published data sheets. The answer will lie in figuring out the sensor manufacturer and their part numbers. You most likely will have to reverse engineer these.

I am also curious to know why you need to know. If you are trying to find a sensor for some job not related to a Ford motor, there are other alternatives. You won't get much from the OEM. In this case the assumption can be made that the spec ends right where it is no longer useful to Ford in the specific application.

Thread 'Belt C-C distance to Tension'

Hi all, I've looked through design manuals (SDP/SI, Gates, Naismith) and textbooks like Shigley's, but haven't found an equation linking initial belt tension to pulley center-to-center distance for a timing belt. I understand initial tension is typically based on the applied load, but I'm curious: A) Is there a known equation relating tension to C-C distance? B) If not, how might one go about deriving it? Thanks in advance!
