WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 1995 Ford Pickup, 1995 Ford Econoline, 1995 Ford Club Wagon, and 1995 Ford Bronco. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Vacuum control valve is normally closed when not energized. Valve may come with or without controlled bleed. Unstable idle may result from a leaking AIR solenoid valve. An electrical malfunction with valve should set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
- If unstable idle exists, remove vacuum hose from valve and plug hose. Warm engine to normal operating temperature. If idle becomes smoother, replace valve.
