DPFE sensor shot=bad mileage?

[SHOfun 93]

I have noticed that my already rich running sho has gotten even WORSE on the mileage front. Could the DPFE being out of voltage range be contributing to that? Just curious. Thanks, cuz I was getting over 300 miles on a tank and now I am lucky to get over 230. YIKES!

Jeremy,

You can get the sensor at local auto parts stores for around $50. Check around.

Really? Cuz fordpartsnetwork.com quoted me a price of $99. I would LOVE that to be the case!!

hey jeremy,

i have a brand new one, i though mine was shot too but it ended up being the "nostrils" in the intake. i'll send you mine for $30 shipped if you want. (95 atx), i think thats what you've got right? lemme know

not sure, but it think it's a borg-warner? if that matters. if you're interested i'll pull it out of the shed and check.

Tony..it HAS to be my DPFE since I just took off the intake and THOROUGHLY cleaned the nostrils a month ago thinking that was it, but the problem and code persisted. I would be happy to take it off your hands in the next week or so..have to wait until I get some $$ together...BTW..I noticed that you are looking for a used aftermarket y-pipe in the signature..I might have my pp one for sale soon...it only has about 15k miles on it or so...would let it go QUITE a bit cheaper than a new one... I have a 93 but I don't think the DPFEs are any different unless you have a CA emissions sho and I don't.

Jeremy,

i'll definately hold on to the sesor. (i'll check the make tonight when i get home from work).

and i'm definately in for the y-pipe thumbs_u (pp is the one i'd rather (rust belt and all...) but 6 bills is a little steep. ) lemme know what you want and when you'll be ready, send me a private message if you want.

but i'll post back here for the make on that sensor tonight. and def. no CA emmissions.

if it'll help you out maybe i can send it now and we'll work out $ later.

lemme know

Tony..that would be a TREMENDOUS help if we could work something out. I am in the process of getting headers made by Shawn for me, and I wouldn't need my PP y pipe after that. I could probably sell it to you very reasonable. LIke I said, it only has about 15k on it, and I live in west Tx where we RARELY see rain and NO salt for sure. Still works like new. If you are willing to presend it, email me or private message me, and I will give you my mailing address. I am good for it, trust me wink I value my reputation on this forum too much. thumbs_u
