Ready To Blow It Up - oldeguy - 06-02-2008

Car is running like crap, that evil light showed up again last night. I'm ready to throw a few sticks of dynamite in it ( while I'm not in it ) B) and walk to work. Anybody willing to do a OBD 2 read on my Focus?

I am picking up my buddies ODBII reader tonight, so i can do a read on my neighbors BMW. So if you want i can get your code read too.

I was wondering if it came back on after we cleaned the MAF

let me know when is good for you, i'm still off work so any time is good with me

Yeah, it's doing the same things, although it did run well for the week. I'm thinking it might either be a dirty TPS, or if worse comes to worse, a DPFE, because I've never had to replace it. Do you mean to tell me that BMWs have things go wrong with them? :lol: How is tomorrow, Tuesday, between 3:45 to 4:00 p.m.?

just FYI guys.. a super cheapo OBDII code reader can be had for around $25 if you wait for a sale. even the cheapest unit can pull the code and clear it
