2001 escort starting/throttle problems.. advice!?

Hello, I have a 01 escort that is having some major issues, the car has some starting problems, when you get the car started it has a very erratic idle and wont stay idle for more than 15 minutes without dieing. when you push the gas pedal it completely bogs down, backfires, and will die. I noticed about 2 weeks ago that it ran really rough with the a/c or fan on, so I wasn't using them at all. now when you get it started and put the air while its sitting idle, it bogs out. We are at a loss.. WE did have some trouble codes P0171, cleared that and it went away and then got code P1401. We have changed the fuel pump, fuel filter, changed spark plugs, cleaned MAF sensor, check the IAC valve and cleaned that, checked the DPFE sensor, checked harmonic balancer, checked and cleaned ERG, had the ignition module checked.. and everything is in good working order, have found no vaccum leaks.. Any advice would be greatly appriciated!2001 escort starting/throttle problems.. advice!?
sounds like you are chaseing codes instead of know where to look which has cost you alot of monies.thats why the dealers are there and this is why they get the big bucks take it to them put it on the computer and find out what really is wrong with it and then have them fix it it for a reasonable cost that is and you get a warrantry also.you could have a manifold leak ,hose leak bad mapsensor etc . and you do have a 2001 escort you didnt say how many miles the car is 9 to 10 years old depending when you bought it or if your the 2nd or 3rd owner remembe this also good luck

7 month old sleep problems!!! Advice?

My 7 month old has terrible sleeping problems, thought us co-sleeping I'm sure hasn't helped...She still does sleep through the night and will want usually two bottles throughout the night. She just starting rolling all about a few weeks ago which also makes for terrible sleep for us all...She'll roll and roll like she can't get comfortable. She sleeps in the crib for ALL naps, but screams her head off if we put her it or the Pack n Play at night.


Yes, we feed her cereal three times a day


Yes, she naps well


She is formula and babyfood fed7 month old sleep problems!!! Advice?
dont let her nap during the day try that7 month old sleep problems!!! Advice?
move your nap time back an hour or so. This way she has more time to wear out before bed. You can start feeding her more foods besides cereal and babyfood, like mashed pots that will leave her fuller. Play with her and wear her out! practice walking helping her and stuff like that. Have crawling contests. etc. when you put her down to sleep sit with her or lay on the floor so she knows your there for a while.
She's used to a certain routine . . . but you need to change it for your own health and sanity! Here's what we did when our kids were 5-8 months old, and not sleeping (still eating) through the night:


1) after making sure they have everything they need, (aren't thirsty, hungry, wet, cold, etc.), put them in the crib.


2) when they cry the first time, go in, touch them, comfort for 30 seconds.


3) If they're still crying, after waiting 3 or 4 minutes, go and stand next to the crib, speak comforting words.


4) repeat the process, lengthening time, a couple of times, trying to stand farther back each time, till finally, just in the doorway.





It seems cruel, but they really just need to learn that they can fall asleep on their own in their own little beds. Otherwise, what we do to comfort them BECOMES their routine. This will help her learn to get comfortable %26amp; fall asleep by herself if she wakes in the middle of the night, not to cry and need to be 'put down' again. She needs to know she can do it, and I promise it isn't cruel, in the end!





By 7 months old, they should be easily able to sleep for 5-6 hours at a stretch.





Good luck!
Wow, exactly the same problem with me!! My son is 7 months old and wakes 2-3 times a night to eat and rolls all over the bed that we co-sleep with him in. My son takes naps in his crib too. The thing that helps us is that we have a bottle with two oz. of water in it next to the bed with one scoop of fornula measured out next to it. We just mix it up and feed him on the spot. That way he doesnt have to actually wait for a bottle to be made. We used to give him 4 oz. and we cut it down to only 2 oz. because I know he isnt actually hungry. He just wants that comfort. He moved from waking up 5 times a night to only one or two now. He hates to sleep in his pack n play too so next week we are moving his crib in our room and we are going to put him in there through the night. It may be hard at first but the other morning I woke up before him and came into the living room. A half an hour later I heard a big thump then a cry. He had rolled off the bed!! He is perfectly fine and only cried for like 5 sec. but thats scary and from now on he just cant sleep in our bed without us there. In a few months we will move the crib out of our room. It is going to have to be a slow transition. I hope that some of my suggestions might help!!

Best friend and boyfriend problems...advice?

I have this best friend who was there for me last year. She is a junior and I am a senior. I moved to another county and found this amazing guy. I spend a ton of time with him because I love him and he lives close. I would spend more time with her but she lives in another county. Neither one of us drives. She is starting to complain that I spend too much time with my boyfriend and not enough time with her. What should I tell her? And also; she is getting to where if I talk to her she complains about life in general and if I try to give her advice she replies with, ';Don't contradict me!'; I'm starting to get tired of talking to her b/c she doesn't like my boyfriend and hasn't even met him. We are growing apart.Best friend and boyfriend problems...advice?
well, you are in another county so she cant say that you spend too much time with him and not enough with her bc theres not that many ways you can see her yet. And when she complains about life in general you need to tell her to suck it up and make the best out of life or else shes going to be miserable. And if she doesnt want advice she shouldnt talk about that stuff. It sounds like she thinks she knows everything and doesnt need help ever. If you dont like how she talks to you about her horable life and then doesnt let you help her tell her to see a counciler.Best friend and boyfriend problems...advice?
Let it go were it goes if it doesn't change it wasn't ment to be.
i think that you you have no fault in this. she is very jelous that she doesn't have you to herself. i think that it is time for you guys to let go and move on with ur own lives.
i think you rock

Christian dating with some problems.Advice Please?

Earlier in the day,my boyfriend texted me yesterday and he said that a girl that is close to his grandma said that I cheated on him,he said she thinks she is hating.I dont know this girl,and she keeps buggin him about it,and its getting to his head.





Later on on the middle of the night last night he called me because he said something was bothering him and it on his mind.What happened was that the same girl and him were in the room,and they were getting ready for a party earlier that day, she asked if he can put lotion on her.He admitted,it was just her legs.So then he leaves,and then this girl strips naked and goes in the room and kisses him.He said he didn't do anything,and i want to believe him and said he was call me later today to talk more about this,i couldnt handle the thought yesterday.We are both saved christians,WE DONT HAVE SEX,and we know thats till marriage,and I want to handle this the right way without buggin out,but I dont know how.Christian dating with some problems.Advice Please?
He made a big mistake putting lotion on her legs. Remember in the Old Testament, Joseph fled from Potiphar's wife. I don't think you can trust him. I'd give him his walking papers if he can't convince you that it was a one-time lapse in judgement, apologize and promise to never be in the same room alone with her again. Christian dating with some problems.Advice Please?
Calm down. If your boyfriend is worthy of your trust, then accept his explanation. If you don't trust him, dump him.





It sounds to me like one of two things happened here:





1. Jealous girl tries to con boy into sleeping with her. When he refuses her advances, she spreads rumors about his girlfriend.





2. Boy cheats on girlfriend and lies about it.





You must decide which one is more likely, based on what you know about your boyfriend.
Pray for wisdom and powers of discernment. You bf was tempted but he says nothing else happened. Even Jesus Christ was tempted! No one is immune from temptation. Give this matter lots of prayer, lots of thought, and some time.





You shouldn't dump your boyfriend too hastily.
This is not God's plan for you. My advice? Say Goodbye...
Shortcakes,





Good for you and youcommitmentnt to stay pure. This situation would be much more difficult to handle had you had an intimate relationship with him.





This must be so upsetting for you. Without knowing him, it's hard to make a firm judgment call, but I gotta say, it doesn't sound good.





If I were you, I would see if he were willing to have nothing more to do with this girl. The Bible tells us to flee when this kind of thing happens.





If he insists that he should still be her friend or even continue to talk her etc.. I would move on. Also, if you would find out that he lied to you and something happened between them, still move on. Temptation will always be a part of a person's life. You don't want to make a lifetime commitmentnt to someone who is going to break your heart over and over.





It's also possible that in case he gets caught, he's got the ';but I thought you had cheated on me, and that's why I did it';.

I have some guy problems. ADVICE PLEASE?

I'm a freshman in high school and I kinda like this senior. We flirt and talk during school whenever we see each other. But he doesn't try to talk to me after school like on myspace or facebook. Still whenever he sees me around he tries to talk to me. So I don't know if he's just being a flirt because I think he is one.





There's this other guy in my year who I think likes me because we were flirting at the basketball games, and we even kissed but he hasn't asked me out because he says he's not sure if I like him or not. I found out from a friend. And I'm not sure if I do, so I don't know if I wanna go out with him.





I like the senior more, but I feel kinda stupid for liking him because I don't know if he likes me. I mean he's a senior. What should I do? If a guy's interested in you, he'd try to talk to you after school too, right?I have some guy problems. ADVICE PLEASE?
It depends on the guy, he might also think your not interested

Want another baby quite bad but some problems..advice please..?

ive already had a boy and a girl..had no problems concieving with them both..now me and my partner want our 3rd..only problem is..

although i smoke i want to stop depseratly.


my partner isnt keen on the idea of having right this minute untill i sort myself out which i am trying..


any advice would be greatly appreciated!!


thanks :-Want another baby quite bad but some problems..advice please..?
It's hard to manage parenting and health problems at the same time, and endometriosis can cause a lot of pain. But, it's also hard to parent well and deal with drugs or alcohol or other substances. They're hard on your body, to begin with, and when you're using, and drunk or high, it's hard on those around you as well, because you're just not yourself. Your partner sound wise. It seems like it would be a good idea to take time to stop using drugs and alcohol, to build a healthy realtionship with the children you have, and with your partner, and to heal your body, mind, and spirit a bit, before trying for a baby. Starting a pregnancy in your best health gives your baby, who is totally dependent on you while he or she is growing inside, the best possible start in life. There are many sources of support and help while you try and work out what's going on for you.Want another baby quite bad but some problems..advice please..?
OK, you had an abortion less than a year ago and now you want to get pregnant. Something isn't right there. I think you have enough children. Concentrate on being a good mom to them and cleaning up your act. I may get thumbs down for this but you don't need another child. Actually, you don't deserve one. Sorry, that's how I feel.
I would get your life in order before you think about getting pregnant again.

  • I need some advice, boy problems............?

    My best friend is falling hard for me.


    Instead of doing handshakes he loves giving me hugs.


    And he hates when I sit to my other bffl's boyfriend.


    he is kinda overprotective.


    I just don't know what to do.I need some advice, boy problems............?
    just talk to him. tell him u don't like him.I need some advice, boy problems............?
    Tell him to cool off - control himself.


    Those 'hugs' you describe are ... big bear hugs that involve groping your waist and your back? If he wants to hug you, they should be less physical - put his hand on your shoulder or top of your back and not thrusting his body to yours. It's a definition between a 'friendly' hug and an 'over-passionate, romantically affectionate' hug.





    Curb the jealousy and make him relax. He shouldn't be controlling anyone or anything but himself emotionally and physically.
    If your not into him, you should tell him before he gets too serious about you. Just keep stating that hes such a great friend, and hes like a brother. Stuff like that.
    Best way to sort whats going on is to talk to him...


    Sit him down and set the facts straight...


    Good luck!!!
    talk to him and ask him how he feels about u and how u feel about yourself
    yeah what she said toots
