Guys, help me here!!!

My 93 3.0 engine light flashes 3 times on start up. What does
this mean? I notice a slight miss when idling low rpm and a little to difficult to start when I let sit for longer than 2 days without running. I am second owner of this vehicle it has 109000 on it and even with the "problem" I have now, runs well. I figure it needs a tune up. Please let me know what the Dynos say??? Thanks

Not only am I from Ohio, I live there. Did you ever notice someone is always from Ohio???

Hi the flashing engine light is probably a code of some kind just watch it and see how many times it does it and then stops and does it again on my air bag light it flashed 3 times then 2 then it started over, I found out from the message board that this meant the contact assembly in my steering wheel was bad and needed to be replaced, after you find out what code it is flashing then if nothing else call the ford dealership and ask them what it could mean, I think someone said in another message board that it meant the EGR valve, but you need to know what code is flashing hope this helps
