Default Re: Love what you have done to the place...

Thank You, everyone, for the information. Let me tell you I ended up having to go and pay for a diagnostic and yep it was the purge flow solenoid and the sensor they wanted to charge me $231.00 to fix it and told me it would take them about 30 to 45 minutes to get it done. So I went and purchased the two parts and I asked my stepfather to help me out (he is retired from Ford as a mechanic but his health is no good) so he stood and watched me. It took me no more than 5 minutes the hardest thing was loosening the screw (ONE SCREW) on the hose clamp. My stepfather said welcome to the life of a mechanic. OMG $231.00 for 5 minutes plus the pards were about $100.00 less. The best news is I PASSED SMOG with flying colors. YES it was a good day.
