Asked for a quote on an IAC valve and at $207.21 I left without it. What a joke! No wonder why people call them "StealerShips"! Time to shop around. 95 Contour GL. Bought new.

I "fixed" mine during the summer and it is out again. I'd like to order it rather than go to the dealer. Thanks. "Asked for a quote on an IAC valve and at $207.21 I left without it." Did this include installation? If not, then maybe you should order from Bill Jenkins at www.teamfordparts.com "Always do the cheap and easy ones first." 1996 V6 ATX 96K miles

You will be asked for the number off of the old unit tho so have it ready. I got one last week for a customer ,around $130 Cnd. As for the MAF i've seen them go bad and not set a code,usually gives the 3000rpm and then bogs problem tho. Good Luck

The Ford # for the bulb is : E5RY-13466-BA I will more than likely go aftermarket for the IAC. The price from Ford was the part only. 95 Contour GL. Bought new.

I'm going to check that PCV line for leaks once more. 95 Contour GL. Bought new. BAT Sway Bars/Pioneer CD/Koni Rear Struts/Mobil Fluids. Looking for 15" alloy rims-PM me. 180,500km's so far.
