Hi guys,

I am pretty new to the bigger ford club and even newer to the modifying scene,

What I would like to know is having this ute (94 XG) does it have the same engine as a ebII even though the owner put a S pack of the same year in it? I am just finding myself getting confused by looking in other sections and need some clarification so I know what is relevant to my ute.

Also what is the name of the workshop manual I should be looking for? I know the XG is put into a supplement so is it the XF workshop book I should be buying?

Sorry for being all noob like. I appreciate all the help


Steve.

have a look in the x forum - i found this-there is no such thing as an "E series ute"
the X series was continued for the commercial range all the way through till EL.

XG= EA-ED
XH= EF
XHII= EL

I have an EBII/ED Gregorys Workshop manual. It has a suppliment for XG's.

Cheers,

Evan.

If you want to buy the Ford manuals (more expensive than the Gregorys), try this

Maybe have a read of the Gregorys and if you want more detail get the ones above.

As far as I know, S packs had no changes to the engine, so it should be a normal EBII. XR6 engines are different.

A lot of info will be covered in the E series forum, because although it is an XG, the components come from a variety of cars.

Have fun.

Well having owned every model ever made.. (I had a small adiction problem) U want the gregory's EB2 manual, with the ute vanm supplement. I have one here. Now I have an XH2 van.. I often still use the EB2 manual as the EF EL manual doesnt have the van supplement. What you are about to find out as U venture into the X series maze, is that they are a parts bin special. My XH2 Van built Jun 98, has in effect a EB2 engine, with the EF serpentine belt system. I recently found out it has an AU1 head on it. You must remember however that it is in effect an XD released 1979. The same as yours. A mate has the latest built one I have ever seen oct 99 ??? Or june. AU was well into production by then. His is a tradesman, and has even more leftover bits thrown at/on it. It does create a massive drama 4 people like us.. Learn all u can.. And this site is amazing for help. Try Ebay for ur EB2 manual. Regards Daz

remmber your build date as parts guys will ask you,when the bitz run out,next bin and date used.
