but the car still kinda cuts out. not as much though. i can feel that its getting more gas mostly because theres a different tone in the exhuast. i still think i need to replace the tps hopefully that will be it. right now the engine needs like $300 to start fixing stuff. like front and rear main seals on the engine, new pcv valve, probally every sensor on the engine, tps is prolly ***ed up, and something else just cant remember. the engine has about 150k so it prolly does need a rebuild.

Dump the codes and see what the computer says is wrong…

Here's the link to dump the computer codes with only a jumper wire or paper clip and the check engine light, or test light or voltmeter. I’ve used it for years, and it works great.

See http://www.troublecodes.net/Ford/
OR
See http://www.dalidesign.com/hbook/eectest.html for more descriptive help
