Ok, let's try this again - I apologize for my original vague posting. You guys have helped me out a lot in the past, hopefully you can again.
95 Cougar, 4.6 V8, 119,212.7 milesMy check engine light came on after the car had just been sitting for a couple of weeks. I got Auto Zone to read the code, which turned out to be:
P1407 EGR No Flow Detected
Does this actually mean the valve itself is bad, or just that a sensor SAYS it is bad? How would I diagnose / repair this - it is making the car run kinda rough. The AZ guy said it could be something as simple as the gas cap being bad, but that P1407 code sounds a lot more specific than that : )
I have located the EGR, it is conveniently located behind the intake crammed into a tiny space against the firewall. I am really hoping I don't have to remove it : )
Thanks, Libby
