- A little additional information. The car has over 60,000 miles hence no
- warrenty.

- I have brought the car to Ford and there is no codes in the computer.

- Mmmm. There is a small chance that the EEC is stuck in test mode. If so, the
- engine will idle stably at above 1000rpm. Ford should have caught this if it
- is the case but you might want to double check. If you see any code before
- you activate self test or you do not see any code after you activate self
- test, the EEC might have stuck in the test mode.
