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
