This factory service and repair manual for the 1993 Ford Cougar applies to a two-door coupe with two engines on record: a 5.0L V8, overhead-valve and naturally aspirated, and a 3.8L V6, overhead-valve and supercharged, both gasoline-fueled. Two trims are listed for the year, V8 and XR-7. The procedures, specifications, torque values, wiring diagrams and diagnostics address both engines, and since the two carry different specifications and torque values, the correct engine has to be identified before any of it is applied.
