Re: traction control

why onhook it? just get in the habit of turning it off.

i think you need new brake lines to remove it.

try the Forced Induction forum...i know you have to remove it to run a SC on most fbodies

Re: traction control

I have an auto 97 Formula, how do I turn the traction control system off if I want to drive? There is no button for it.

Re: traction control

There isn't..?

In the owners manual it talks about the TCS and it shows the button, but mine doesn't have it..

Traction control (ASR) was an "option", not standard. Look at your build tag - it will have "NW9" on it if your car had the option. It will also have a large, ugly black box sitting on top of the driver's side valve cover.

Then it's probably a pretty safe bet that you don't have traction control.

I ordered my '02 Z28 without it
