    excessive air flow code

    I see the EGR valve position sensor on advance auto parts website. I don't think that I have a DPFE sensor. I have the 5.0 Eddie Bauer. Is that the sensor that you are talking about? Thanks again.

    excessive air flow code

    Hey guys, I had this code pulled at advance auto parts, and it was "excessive air flow/egr". I bought an aftermarket EGR valve and had a local mechanic put it on. I still cannot get the check engine light to come off, and the code is still there. Should I buy a dealer item on this one...

    fuel pump primes, but won't turn over

    I tried that. Does anyone have pictures of where to spray starter fluid? I see the throttle body, but am not comfortable doing it. Do I spray it while someone is cranking it?

    fuel pump primes, but won't turn over

    and if there is a spark coming from the wire, than does that mean that I need to replace the plugs? I am due for a change, but I would think that the car should at least turn over........if not idle rough.

    fuel pump primes, but won't turn over

    I did actually fill up, but at quicktrip and have never had a problem with their gas. It starts, but just sounds like it is out of gas. I have pushed the gas pedal, and tried to play with it, but still no good. Does that mean buying the IAC will be useless? I do have an idler pulley that...

    fuel pump primes, but won't turn over

    3RD Brakelight removal?

    The dealer told me that it is a common problem, and it costs 15.00 to replace. They said that they have to take the "pins" out and pull down the headliner..........all in all about 5 minutes for them.. Is this true?

    Headlamp question

    I have a 96 EB that is doing the same thing on the passenger side. High beams work, but no low beams. There is a thick cable with the ground, low and high wire that the bulb fits into. Is it possible to replace the cable? Anyone?
