I have an 88 2.3 that has an annoying problem of running rich and hope someone out there can think of something I haven't.It only starts doing it right when it reaches warm up.After that it starts pouring the gas into the cylinders and starts sputtering and jerking.When you step on on it it will clear it up but when you try to maintain speed it will go right back to flooding out.To date I have replaced everything I can think of involved with the fuel distribution including the fuel pressure regulator,O2 sensor,air intake temp sensor,map sensor,coolant temp sensor,TFI module and pip,complete EGR assemby,EGR vacuum solenoid,air filter and fuel injectors.I finally gave up and took it to Ford which I absolutely hate to do and 80 dollars later they had no idea what was causing it.I had them do a fuel pressure test and vacuum test and both checked out perfect.I still think it is vacuum related and tied into the EGR valve somehow but everything was replaced and checked out.I even replaced the computer and still no luck.The other weird thing is after this truck starts sputtering and flooding out,I can park and kill about 10 minutes and get back in and the problem is totally gone.Anyone got any ideas on this?
