1995 Ranger "Check Engine" light
I have a 1995 Ford Ranger with 143,000 miles on it. It still looks and runs good. Recently it started showing the "Check Engine" light. When I check it with my OBD-II diagnostic tester it's always the same code. It says the EGR flow is low. I have checked or had checked the EGR valve, EGV solenoid, the Back Pressure transducer and all the associated hoses. Everything checks out okay. After I clear the code and resume driving there seems to be a definite pattern to the "Check Engine" light coming on. If I start with a cold engine and continue to drive the light never comes on. If I stop for a short time after having driven for some time and resume driving the "Check Engine" light comes on withing a short time. I think this problem appeared after I installed a new radiator. The old one developed a leak that got progressively worse, but the "Check Engine" light never came on. The new radiator seems to run about the same temperature as the old radiator did according to the coolant temperature gauge. The engine seems to run good regardless if the light is on or off. Any suggestions?
