[Shotimes] 327 trouble code

[Rick Glass]

I simply stated that I was told that I had a problem pertaining to the DPFE
and the EGR which is what this person stated was wrong with theirs, I was
also told theer was something wrong with the igniotion control module, which
is electrical, but that item was discontinued and unavailable from Ford at
the time.  I also said I do not know the exact codes that my car gave, it
was 3 or 4 years ago and it gave 6 different codes that day, I replaced 1
sensor and cleaned the intake, all 6 codes miraculously went away, if the
sensor fixed the one code, what fixed the other 5.
I put another 80,000 miles on that car and never did have another issue with
the ignition module or any of the other sensors that supposedly needed
replacing when the 6 codes were read.

As everyone here knows, the SHO is a sensitive beast, many things are
unexplainable,
I simply suggested cleaning the intake, I never said it would fix anything,
just that it fixed mine.
It can't possibly hurt anything to clean the intake, and it just might prove
that some codes are fixed by doing something that makes absolutely no sense
in relation to the actual problem.
