Finally got to a service garage today!
95 contour with 2.0 and automatic
Car hesitates and CEL comes on...
Decided not to use my local Ford dealer...
computer diagnosis for $59.00
Ford wanted $109.
Replaced:
EGR sensors $86.90
Fuel filter 19.95
Vacuum Reg 39.65
Labor 48.65
total $255.10
What do you think did I get robbed ???
....
Follow up:
Car still hesitates, CEL still comes on !
Mechanic agreed to put in new plugs and wires for "his cost" $89.00 more No labor !
Even offered to take out sensors !
Should I leave the sensors in ???
Are Fords really this hard to diagnose ???
Do you think if I had replaced the plugs and wires FIRST all my problems would have gone away??? Maybe the sensors got bad readings from the poor plugs and wires ???
Should I go for an air cleaner too ???
Undoubtedly probably a $100 part !
So pained... it makes you want to laugh !
