97 & 98 cobra Intake valve problem

GodStang · 03-24-2003, 09:18 AM

Both a 1997 and a 1998 Cobra have their check engine light on. When it is scanned it days that the intake manifold valve is getting stuck open. Anyone know any easy ways to fix it. When the cars are run over 3000 rpms it will get stuck open and stay open for about 2 or 3 days and then close. Than it starts all over again. Alot of power seems to be loss when it is stuck open.

Intake manifold runner control valves stuck, eh?

probably a faulty actuator
remove & replace the actuator and you're good to go!
