Hey guys, as I posted before I have been working on my GF's focus trying to get rid of the hesitation and cold start problems.
Well I swapped the injectors with the ones I got from flofocus(thanks) and a new fuel filter. I have to say the car starts and runs a lot better than it did before. No more lagging around town and she starts right up.
One problem though, after I put everything back together (by the book) I had the car re-learn its idle but in the process it threw a CEL.
Any ideas on what it could be? I really would like to have a OBD reader as MY focus lit one up after the TB install. Any one know what a shop would charge to check the code, it has to be somthing simple cause she runs sweet!
P.S. The injectors were from an 03 focus and hers is a 00 focus, any problems???
P.S.S. Thanks guys, don't know where i'd be without this site!

You can also do the trip odometer diagnostic mode trick.

(information found on the internet and in the 2001 Ford Cars Service manual on CD-ROM)
To enter the HEC Dealer Test Mode, depress and hold the instrument cluster SELECT/RESET button, turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, and then continue pressing the SELECT/RESET button (5 seconds) until tESt is displayed in the odometer.ÃÂ ÃÂ The SELECT/RESET button must be released within three seconds of the odometer tESt display to begin the dealer test mode.ÃÂ ÃÂ Depress the SELECT/RESET button to advance through the following steps until dtc is displayed.ÃÂ ÃÂ Depressing the SELECT/RESET button will display any stored continuous DTCs before proceeding to the next step

Don't see why it would, you should of seen the old injectors when I pulled them(like hair in the drainpipe clogged). My GF is never to be seen at one of those no name gas stations again. :P
