my bronco is giving a code of 33 and 172. i replaced the evp sensor. the old one did have an open signal when i depressed it only in one spot. this did not fix the prob. i have had the valve off and cleand it and cheked to see if it was sealing of. it did fine. the check engine light only comes on at a good traveling speed 40+ in 3rd or 4th gear with agood load. it starts stumbling. the light does go out but it comes back on. i think it could be the evr valve. i have alredy read alot on some other post you all have put up.anny help would be appreciated.

Welcome to da ZONE!!

In your 95, you should be getting only 3 digit codes;

The engine temperature must be greater than 50°F (10°C) to pass the KOEO Self-Test and greater than 180°F (82°C) to pass the KOER Self-Test. Run it around to heat the engine up and shift thru all gears incl Reverse. Then turn off all accesories/lights, etc. Make sure A/C is off and transmission is in Park (automatic) or in Neutral for a Manual & release clutch. Do Key On Engine Off (KOEO) portion first.

for now:

Let me guess on the 33 Code;

,,, if the EGR valve is Clean (re, your "have had the valve off and cleand it and checked to see if it was sealing of. it did fine...") & functioning/moving when vacuum is applied, the EVP sensor is suspect and the electrical connections to it should be checked first.

\&

Operation & Testing; "...The EGR Valve Position (EVP) Sensor used exclusively by Ford, can be the cause of driveability problems without ever setting any trouble codes. The relationship between the EVP sensor and the EGR valve is important to understand. Either one being out of spec can cause similar symptoms. Understanding this relationship will help you to diagnose uncoded driveability problems like stumbles, hesitations, rough idles and stalling. First, remember that EGR valves are designed to reduce harmful NOx emissions that may occur when cylinder peak combustion temperatures reach 2500 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, Nitrogen (N), which makes up 78% of the intake air, will combine with Oxygen (O), which makes up 21% of the intake air, in various ratios. The letter "x" represents these various combinations. When NOx enters the atmosphere it unites with hydrocarbons with the help of the sun and smog forms. Whenever the EGR valve allows exhaust to re-enter the intake manifold it displaces good burnable air/fuel. This cools the combustion but also reduces the power that the cylinders produce. Therefore, we must make sure that this doesn't happen at the wrong time. The wrong times are: ) During cold engine operation. 2) During engine idle. 3) During high power demands. EGR operation during any of these conditions will cause hesitations, rough idle or engine stalling. Today, EGR activity is better controlled by computer operated solenoids and backpressure sensing valves. This greatly overcame the driveability problems of the early EGR systems of the 70's. The EEC IV system uses the EVP sensor to advance timing and, therefore, help burn the mixture better during EGR flow. The EVP sensor measures the EGR valve position in the same way that the Throttle Position Sensor measures throttle position. As a matter of fact, these electrical circuits work in very much the same way. They both use three wires; 1) 5 volt reference 2) ground and 3) sensor output to the computer. They both send a low voltage at closed position and a high voltage at maximum opening. The EVP's closed voltage depends on the EGR's closed position and the EVP's maximum voltage depends on the EGR's position when it is at maximum travel. Any position in between minimum and maximum depends on vacuum signal strength and the EGR return spring resistance to the vacuum signal. So, different voltages will be produced by different vacuum signals. The chart below shows you the relationship between the vacuum signal strength in inches of mercury ("Hg) and the voltages that result from the EVP sensor. Remember that this chart applies to EGR valves that have good return springs. NOTE: Allow +/- .2 volts for all specifications. Now, the problem with this chart is that it doesn't tell you how to move the valve to the opening percentages. The missing information is that Ford EGR valves will open 100% at 8 "Hg. Therefore, 50% opening will be obtained by creating 4 "Hg, etc. Now that you know this, you can open the EGR valve using a vacuum pump and watch the voltage on your digital voltmeter with the key on engine off. If you find that the voltage rises more than the chart allows, you probably found the cause for the stumble or hesitation. The EGR valve spring has become weak and it responds too quickly. But, because it is still within the allowed voltage range, there is no trouble code stored. Keep in mind that the EVP Sensor could also be out of calibration or stuck. So when you disassemble the EVP Sensor from the EGR valve you must determine which was at fault. Also be careful to reassemble them with a new "O" ring. This will ensure that a vacuum leak doesn't occur..." See Diagram

Testing & Operation in a 94; "...In the case of the EVP sensor, the information is sent in the way of sensing the actual position of the EGR valve. 327 indicates the voltage in the EVP circuit was lower than it should EVER be. However, 337 indicates that the voltage coming back to the PCM is too high. These conflicting codes need to be verified. You may have wiring damage with this situation. EVP sensor should have three wires running to it. BROWN/WHITE (pin1), GREY/RED (pin2), BROWN/LT. GREEN (pin3). The GREY/RED is always the signal return. For two-pin sensors the PCM uses the voltage coming back down this wire for information. For three-pin sensors the PCM uses both this and the third pin (in the case of the EVP sensor, the BROWN/LT. GREEN wire) as a comparison voltage to the signal return voltage in the GREY/RED wire. Pin 46 of the PCM is the signal return terminal. The PCM assumes the necessary voltage drop through the wiring harness and takes the voltage from the third (BROWN/LT. GREEN) pin as a comparison. The difference is calculated and the PCM makes adjustments accordingly. The voltage at pin 46 of the PCM should be very close to the same voltage as found at pin 26 or slightly lower. To check that the VREF (reference voltage) generated by the PCM power supply is good, meter between pin 26 of the PCM and a good frame ground. Double check the wiring harness TO the EVP sensor by checking for the same voltage at the BROWN/WHITE wire in the EVP connector in the wiring harness. If you have a good VREF voltage (5VDC approx.) then jump the BROWN/WHITE wire to the BROWN/LT. GREEN wire and check the voltage at pin 27 of the PCM. If you still have good VREF voltage, the problem does NOT lie in the wiring harness. You can do the "wiggle" test on the harness to make sure there are no weak or loose connections between the sensor connector and the PCM. To test the EVP sensor itself, probe the pins that connect to the aforementioned wires and run the test by applying vacuum as described in my previous post. As mentioned, the resistance should change smoothly as the vacuum is slowly released. If it does not, the EVP is bad. Note: Only run this test with the EVP sensor disconnected from the wiring harness or your readings will be tainted by the electronics in the PCM. One thing to note here is that the VREF feed for the EVP sensor splits off to both the TP (throttle position) sensor and the MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor somewhere in the main harness between the firewall and the individual sensors. You might do well the check for damaged wires at all of these sensors just in case the harness is damaged and shorting at one of the other sensors being fed VREF..."

DTC 332, P1407 and P1408 or detonation ;"...We have run into many situations where a code for insufficient flow has been set and the system is functioning correctly. Then it is time to check the EGR passages. There is a Ford Technical Service Bulletin (TSB 96-23-4) that addresses this for some vehicles.

If exercising the EGR valve does not result in a change in rpm, then the passages may be clogged. There are “U” shaped passages (Fig. 6) under the throttle body adapter that get clogged with carbon. Remove the adapter, clean the passages and reinstall with a new gasket. Just because the vehicle you are working on is not listed in the TSB doesn’t mean you may not have a clogging problem. Make sure you check the passages and be sure they are clean. Just a slight restriction can cause a flow code to be set, and you may still have an rpm drop that can mislead you..."

thanks for the help. thats some good info. i do have an exghuast leak very close to the o2. would this have an effect on it. i also have a code of 313 with engine running. but i dont think i have any cats anymore. this bronco has 236,000 miles on it. it appears to be original. the spring in my egr could be worn. i like this forum. its good to see other bronco owners.

thanks. it is showing a 334. i grounded the regulator and it made the idle very rough. this caused a 332 i believe. i thik my regulator is putting vaccume to the egr even after the computer is not calling for it, or the spring is bad in the egr. i will have to wait untill i can muster up some money. thanks for the help.
