Ya. Just wanna add my two cents.
I've had the same code, CEL was coming and going at hiway speeds, and this thread really helped me to deside to spent some $100 on new sensor. I did and never regret - CEL is not coming animore and car runs solid as never before. Totaly worth the mone and effort.
Althou car was hesistating before, after I changed the sensor it was realy worsen. I desided to change wires and plugs, bought both Motocraft ones. A little expensive but worth it - car is running like a bird now!
