Unfortunately all the workshop manuals i have here start at EF........but i am assuming that they wont have changed much :oops: :( :oops: but your ABS fuse is located in the under bonnet fuse box located next to coolant overflow/resevior.It should be a 30 A fuse and be marked on the lid as to which one......................ESP's bit of advice for attempting line lockers is to clamp rear brake lines so as not to burnout rear pads or overheat/warp rear rotors but most of all.........................ENJOY :D

yes ESP is right the fuse is located under the bonnet right beside the overflow bottle. It should have abs written on the top cover.

Good luck with it all.

I've had no problems doing them in a manual with ABS as can be evidenced in THIS VID :)
Just rev it up, pretty much drop the clutch and then stand on the brake so you don't take off up the road.

Blame it on me by Unwritten Law from the album Elva.

All you guys talking about not being able to do standstills with ABS - mine in the above video were and it does them all day like that!

dunno what the deal is with the abs. it dont kick in till the car is doing over like 30 anyway, and once its spinning it wont lock up so it wont have to release it anyway, , and ive done one before, with foot on brake and all that happens is the abs malfunctions and the light turns on cos it holds the front and cant stop the back,. so the ligght turns on.. you finish smokin roll away and 50 down the road the light turns off and you abs is back on again.

if you dont beleive me try it on gravel bakin the backend flickin it round with the brake on slowing the front down.

just dont cut up in a carpark and forget to take the handbrake off from your parking bay, cos youll pretty much set fire to your rear pads!. ahha did that when i was 17. :roll:

I don't know what sort of falcon you drive but I don't know many RWD cars that will do a burnout with the handbrake on !!

I do like some of you suggest, get the revs up to 3-4k and drop the clutch, then quickly jump on the brakes.

This works for me, even though I only have a single spinner that tends to lockup after a couple of burnouts. (as you can see from the video below, all done on the race track)

here is a vid of me lighting both tyres up at the strip, with a single spinner diff :)

This is the quickest way to distroy your LSD. Or what's left of it now!

Beings a manual EB XR6 would the best thing be puttin her to 4/5 grand and slowly lifting the clutch up (noticed a lot of slipage when trying this) or should i start at the friction point and start ripping into it?

Or would it be best to heel and toe? being ABS i didn't think this was wise after seeing my mate burn both his front disc in a EF XR8, should i take the abs fuse out or is it a matter of clutch control?

(It does burn outs, but the correct way to standstill in a manual LSD ford should reduce the damage factor)

Yes do it this way. You may find the ABS light will com on during this because the rears are spinning too fast.

my mate with his 146rwkw ef was doin that for a while (n, 5000rpm then D) if his car didnt get written off by the mechanic his tranny would have lasted for i reckon 2 weeks and he woulda copped a cog in the a**! but f**k it ripped of a beatiful skid doin it that way!

:lol: Why in the world would you use this technique if you have 146rwkw... with that kind of power it will lose traction instantanously.
I just don't get some people.
