When I first got my truck a few months ago, I was getting 33 code.
I found the EGR to be stuck and cleaned and freed it up.....still 33.
I cleaned out the EGR Control Solonoid and cleaned up its contacts.....and the EGR started to work but........still the 33.
I nicked/stripped little spots on the three wires that go to the EVP and measured the three from ground. One was 0 volts (ground)......one was 5.0 volts (from the PCM)......and the other was .83 volts (EVP output).
I rechecked the EGR and confirmed that it was fully closing and seating properly when closed.
I then installed a rubber grommit between the EGR and EVP to act as spacer and still maintain airtight integrity of the EGR. I tightened eack of the three screws a little at a time keeping the gap between the EGR and EVP even. When it got to about .050 " I measured .43 volts on the output wire, so I fired her up and it's run great ever since. No more code and passed eCheck.

The EVP output has to measure less than .6 volts from ground with the key on and engine not running.

I don't see a code listed 133 on my list. I was getting 33. I assume you mean the same here...

By EVR (as per www.Fordfuelinjection.com) that would be the vacuum regulator on the passenger side of the motor. I'm assuming here you mean the EVP sensor.

Again, I think you mean EVP. I can't see how a rubber gromet would impact anything behind the vacuum solenoid.

Not trying to bust your chops at all...I just want to clarify. I've found that part stores, Ford parts, wrecking yards, all use these interchange these acronyms often. It gets all parties confused.

I am sticking with the acronyms from www.fordfuelinjection.com

Thanks again

Mike

Yep, it's EVP and 33

Been a real long day trying to get my bed bolts out, LOL

I reedited that post to read correctly.

Just an after thought.

On the fuelinjection site, EVR (the EGR vacuum control device I was discussing earlier in the thread ) is shown with pictures and testing specs and proceedures.
