Not knowing what spam... errrr, scan tool was used, I'll bet that the test
was totally incomplete. Two areas to consider, all the same, would be the EVAP system and the fuel pressure regulator. Many things can drive a system lean... very few can drive it rich.

thank you,thank you,Jim Warman-the mechanic for your advice on explorer
running too rich. The Pressure regulator valve was terribly malfunctioning- the pressure was up to 100+ lbs. the EVAP valve in tank is not working as manual describe. BUT,the pressure came down to 30 lbs with new pressure regulator. AGAIN - THANK YOU!! |
