Replying to: mwright357 (Sep 09, 2008 5:59 am) Hi. Did you ever find out what was causing your problem. My car is doing the same thing. Idling high when driving and low when stoped. Replies to this message: 1worrieddriver (Oct 19, 2008 4:31 am)

#2877 of 2935 idle problem by johnwny Oct 19, 2008 (7:50 pm)
Hi, I have a simple problem...I hope. When my 98 Taurus (135k miles) with the dohc 3.0 idles from a cold start (summer or winter) it stays up around 2200 rpm then drops to 1500 rpm before dropping to 900 rpm. It stays at 2200 and 1500 way to long to be a normal idle. If I put the car in gear it drops right to 900 rpm and stays there. There is no check engine light or stored codes for this. I'm thinking the idle air control valve but I don't want to just start replacing parts. I've tryed cleaning the IAC with no luck. Any ideas? Thanks.

Replying to: ewashington (Nov 18, 2008 3:28 pm) Its down behind the back right hand side of the engine beside the power steering pipes. Not the best design for the sake of a longer filler pipe and fiderly to get the dip stick back in, for filling you will need the long neck transmission funnel from most auto shops cost about a couple of dollars or less.

#2884 of 2935 99 Sable Flex Pipe by scott56 Dec 07, 2008 (5:33 pm)
Need to change the flex pipe on 99 dohc Sable. Looks like the original one on there. Is there any tricks to get pipe out from inside the back pipe. Can the new flex pipe installed like the original or does it have to be welded?   Thanks, Scott.
