I recently purchased and 1995 Airex. Ford 460 with an F53 chassis I do believe. Fortunately the vehicle was actually a first owner owned and only had 30,000 miles on it, the owners kept meticulous records on everything from the new microwave they install to the water tanks to refrigerator manuals everything but unfortunately when I went to look up the engine information that part was not to be found. When I purchased it the engine ran great uphill and down then after about a month every 50 miles or so it would lose power when I step on the gas and it would backfire bit now it's gotten a lot worse and it happens more frequently and the loss of power is more severe. I have tried to look everywhere to find the OBD 1 connection so I can check the engine light and find out what's wrong but I can't seem to find anywhere to give me that location. I have a 95 and apparently they started with a new and more efficient system in 96 so my vehicle missed it by one year. If anybody can help I would be much much appreciated, thank you.

 

On the Ford trucks with obd1 the tester is on the inside fender driver side near the firewall under a little black box that EEC test or something like that. You can google how to check it with a paper clip on the test plug if you don't have the ford code reader. You can also read codes with the check engine light flashes. That info is available also on google.

 

In the photo below it is call the Self-Test plug.
Ford keep the same location system type though the 1997 year.
You more than likely have a 1994 F53 with a 1995 home title.
You need to check the VIN for the year as you can not go by the title.

Thanks, I hope I can find it. I wish I could find something with my particular RV an 1995 airex.

That's exactly what I got. I know where the VIN number and all that information is at I just can't seem to find proper manuals for my particular type of RV. Would you happen to have any suggestions to websites that have manuals for my particular RV?

 

There are two types of manuals, one for the chassis and one for the home.
For the home you would need to go to the home manufacturer.
For the chassis, for the Ford shop manuals you would get the 1995 F-series shop manuals.
Here is a set that would cover the chassis but not the electrical wiring.
