    It lives!

    Fixed her up for the most part git rid of the miss.. The code came up as a MAP sensor so It was still under warrenty on top of that I gave fresh plugs (one plug had build up on it) so changed those.. checked the Cap and rotor its all good and wires as well.. and aloso deleted the EGR system which was detached anyway explaining the exhuast leak and finally changed the valve cover gaskets which was completely gross.. i had to scrape the outside lips of the valve cover with a screwdriver and wh knew there is actually sticker on the valve conver from the factory Haha... Also adjust the TPS voltage to .999 so its right on the money and super snapy and as well bumped up the timing to around 14.. Still has a little bit of a fast surge to it so it just sounds like it has a cam.. Im still on the hunt for thar but Ive got it narrowed it down to the IAC I think.. Any ideas.. Thnaks Mangs for the help

    You're using an aftermarket MAP? Throw it away before it fails again, I don't care if it is new. I'd take a 20 year old Ford MAP sensor before a new Autozone sensor any day of the week.

      sadly a lot of the new sensors aren't as durable or accurate as old used originals. The OEM stuff was actually made by Bosch for the most part, so if you can get Bosch replacements they would probably work out fine.

          FIXED IT.. New IAC and cleaned out the EGR.. Even though I disconnected everything (EGR) I guess its still pumping air.. i gotta delete it and put a plate there eventually.. But yea I just blew it out and clean it slapped the new IAC on and its runs awesome.. even better than before with all the new shit I added going threw it try to find the problem

                    smooth running is always nice.
