Sorry Bri, I could be wrong about the idle control valve... thats the tube thing in the top of your photo... (which is what I thought you meant when you said you had disconnected it)

its fine im pretty sure ist the throttle position sensor.   for now lol

That table is for a later version of the 'same' ECU. The EEC-IV was used for all of the EFI Pintos and the EFI Cologne V6's and even a few Zetec-E models. The abbreviations are:

ACT = Air Charge Temp
BV = Battery Voltage
DPFE = Differential Pressure Feedback EGR
ECT = Engine Coolant Temp
EGR = Exhaust Gas Recirculation
KS = Knock Sensor
MAF = Mass Air Flow
MAP = Manifold Air Pressure
NDS = Neutral/Drive Switch
PIP = Profile Ignition Pickup
SS = Starter Sense
TPS = Throttle Position Sensor

Are you still running an standard unbaffled escort van tank ?
How much fuel have you got in the tank ?
Might be fuel supply affecting everything

[Brian (up north) Morris]

this is the little pig :-)

[Paul Sheridan]

I would recommend you replace it Brian, It may seem to run ok with out it, but the ECU will rely on it to make adjustments at certain points throughout the map.
