But ive also noticed that my car surges Hard when below about 2,000 rpm. ive tried raising my idle and it started doing it a little less but it still does it. im idling at like 850-900 rpm. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Joooestang66</b> <br /><small>Member # 2828</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,5,12,22,59,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> A good place to start when diagnosing a "surge" like you are describing would be to check your TP sensor voltage, MAF voltage, and make sure your DPFE is at spec. Also, remove the MAF sensor from the housing and inspect it, check for dirt and dust on the elements. If they are dirty CAREFULLY clean them off with the torn edge of a piece of paper. Otherwise you would need a high end scan tool like a Snap-on Scanner or a NGS to watch your TP, MAF, and DPFE voltage. Checking for continuous codes wouldnt hurt either, it might give you a place to start. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>92SilverGT</b> <br /><small>Member # 2729</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,5,13,19,9,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> thanx <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
