2001 Ford Taurus Flex Fuel

Hi, all!

Well, here is the update.

Drove to the Post Office and back, maybe a distance of 2 miles or so.  The MIL light came on just as I got back to my house from the Post Office.

Checked with the scanner, it's the same two codes as before:
                 P1132 Lack Of HO2S11 Switches - Sensor indicates rich.
                 P1152 Lack Of HO2S21 Switches - Sensor indicates rich.

So now I am not sure as to where to go from here.  Transman, you mentioned the fuel pressure test.  What do I need to test this and where do I test it from?

Thanks!

Remember that once you clear the codes, you will need to do a "Full throttle" takeoff from a standing start to set the Baro. If you can see real data while you do that see how high a engine load you can get on the scanner, if you can't get 90 % engine load then the MAF is bad anyway (general rule). Good luck, Transman

Hi, all!

Thanks again for all the help!

Transman, thanks for the final bit of detail.  I took the car out the next morning and did the full throttle start immediately after clearing the codes.

Since that point, my wife and I have driven probably 200 miles, the car has gone out everyday without a single problem, so I am going to say it is and that is awesome!

Thanks again to everyone for the help!
