ther always next to and wired in to the egr valve on intake manifold
AnswerDepending on which engine you have, the DPFE is usually mounted to the upper intake manifold. It's a rectangular box. On the 24 valve engine, it's tucked away under the passenger side of the manifold. You will have to remove the cowling near the cabin air filter to get access to it.
I'm not a mechanic / technician but I had the DPFE sensor changed on my Ford Explorer . As far as I know it is used to control the amount the Exhaust Gas Recirculation ( EGR ) valve opens
on the 4.2l it is on top of the egr valve. you have to buy the whole thing its about 170 bucks.
It is located at the back of the engine on the top between the engine block and the front winshield. It should be black or chrome colored and kind of looks like a disk, with a small vacuum hose couimg out the top of it.You can see a picture in the Haynes Repair Manual for Ford Taurus, Mercury Sable on page 6-2. Hope that helps.Just replaced mine in my Taurus today.AmandaThis is a pretty straight forward replacement - only 2 mounting bolts, a vacuum hose and one other pipe that'll come off with an adjustable wrench.NOTE: this notice is from the Autozone.com site regarding the EGR valve:**Caution!!** Before replacing the EGR Valve, inspect the DPFE/EGR Valve Pressure Feedback Sensor and hoses for proper operation. It is common for a DPFE sensor to set a trouble codeSee "Related Links" below for the DPFE sensor section of Autozone's online repair guide.
where is the DPFE sensor located on a 2002 ford crown victoria?
On my 1995 Ford Explorer with the 4.0 liter OHV engine the DPFE sensor ( differential / or delta pressure feedback Egr sensor ) is located on the upper intake manifold on the drivers side of the engine
Remove the hoses. Unclip the electrical connector. Remove the bolts that hold it in place. Reverse to install the new one.
No.No.
On the 4.0 L - OHV engine , the DPFE sensor is on the drivers side of the engine , mounted below the idle air control valve
Answer - 1998 DOHCEGR valve should be front of intake just behind throttle body. 2 bolts and 2 nuts hold it on, it'll have a green, plastic vacuum line going to its top. DPFE Sensor will be firewall side of engine, will have a 3 wire connector to it and 2 reinforced vacuum lines at its bottom.
YES - www.motorcraft.com lists a DPFE sensor for all available engines on a 1996 Ford Ranger
AnswerWell, the EGR just sends some of the exhaust flow into the intake to be reburned for emissions sake. Sometimes there's a problem with the valve, or related part that causes the valve to open when idling. It should only open when you're driving. The most common symptom with an EGR problem is stalling and rough idle at stop.Answer See "Related Questions" below for much much more the about EGR/DPFE systems on Taurus / Sables
