Hello All,
I hope that the great and powerful brain trust can help me out with this one.....
Here is what I have,
1998 Ford Expy with the 4.6 motor
I bought it with the PO stating it needed new cats....not running.
Here is what I have done....
CAT GUT with 2nd O2 sensors on plug foulers.
New fuel filter
New PCV
New Air filter
So now the motor starts, and runs, but only at about 500 rpm, and will not take any gas for a while. After holding down the gas pedal, for about 1-2 minutes, I can get the RPMs up, and motor runs smooth. No CEL on the dash, which does work when the key is turned to check the lights.
So, to state my obvious question.....What is wrong? Where should I look to next?
I could state all kinds of ideas, but would rather hear from anyone with a new set of eyes.
Thank you all....
