1999 Explorer Sport engine code problem

J-Sarge 8 February 2005 21:59:32
 I have a 1999 Ford Explorer and the computer tells me that there is a
insufficient flow to EGR Valve. I have contacted to ford dealerships and
got two different answers. One tells me that is is probably the dpfe
sensor which is 100 bucks, the other says it is probably the regulator. I
am new at this emmisions stuff and any help would be greatly appreciated.

 I had a code 402 on my 1999. The direction from the group was
'troubleshoot'. I went to a friendly shop and the computer said DPFE. I
bought ond frem a Ford dealer for about $80. and it solved the problem.
I then found new ones on EBAY for about $20.

 Please, please, please... post the code number... If the code retrieved was
a P0401, you are ALMOST assured that it is the DPFE. The regulators and
valves themselves have been known to fail tough not with the regualrity of
the sensors. You may want to double check with your dealer... I recall a
customer satisfaction program though I cannot currently access the details.

There is a simple method to testing the DPFE but you will need a scan tool
capable of display PID data and a hand vacuum pump.
