Well I haven't posted up about the problems I have been having with my Focus. But here it is in a nutshell. Shortly after installing the header, cat, flex pipe, EGR valve and tube I started having a stalling issue at idle. Not when cold, only at opperating temperature. So I fixed a broken vacume line (small hole), did a lot of reading and replaced the DPFE sensor and no luck. Tonight I read some more and found the PCV hose collapsed at the intake.
Could this cause the stalling issue described above? I know this would be the next likely cause and the hose obviously needs to be replaced due to the fact it has collapsed. Also has anyone seen how that clamp comes off the intake? I can feel it but can't see it. It dosen't feel like a normal clamp.
Thanks in advance for your input and suggestions.
