My problem has returned, so it was not the TPS (I unplugged it), IAC (I isolated it by plugging the air hose), or a leak in the intake gasket. I also replace the IAC & EGR valve gaskets, the plugs & wires again. I also replaced the coil pack, now I have a spare.

I wanted to change the fuel filter & install a fuel pressure gauge next. I will also try to find a way to bypass the MAF or get a substitute from somewhere to see if that makes a difference.

(sigh) This is driving me NUTZ!!!




Does your problem go away temporarily when you swap out the plugs for new Autolites (or whatever) ? Mine will, in fact mine never started until I changed the plugs. Anyone have this problem ? Ken 99 SE Zetec Atx.
