6 unusual facts about Ford EEC


Ford EEC

There were two different EEC-III modules; Feedback Carburetor (FBC) and Central Fuel Injection (CFI - similar to GM's Throttle Body Injection).

With the Escort, the base engine was the same as all US Escorts, the 1.6L CVH, but featured unique intake and exhaust manifolds in addition to EFI.

Like the General Motors H.E.I. module that preceded it, it was created with Surface-mount technology parts, allowing it to be much smaller than the previous Dura-Spark ignition module.

This was non-sequential EFI, meaning 1/4 of the required fuel for each cylinder was injected into the intake manifold, near the intake valve for each cylinder firing.

EEC-IV first appeared on the 1983 1.6L EFI, 2.3L High Swirl Combustion (HSC), 2.3L EFI Turbo and 2.8L truck engines.

EEC-III uses a Dura-Spark III module (Brown grommet where wires emerge) and a Dura-Spark II ignition coil.
