As some of you know, i've had an ongoing issue with my 2000 ZTS automatic with it's TPS always "blowing" or throwing a code or three. I'm getting ready to take it to the local Ford Store to see about getting it fixed, at $99.00 an hour.... :angry:

When does it happen? or is it totally intermittent? What DTC(s) are you getting?

ohh i thought you were gona trade it for something else.

Honestly they won't know anything about it with the exception of changing random parts until it goes away. It might cost you $$$ for them to trouble shoot it
