Re: OBD Code Definitions 1993 Trans Sport

The purge valve readings are on the previous page. Please be sure to see them. Thanks

As for the temp sending units (CTSs):
*The one with the single contact (I think it controls the gauge) is 2810 ohms at 68F. The chart says they should be 3400 ohms at 70F.
*The double contact unit (I think might work with the ECM in controling the purge valve activation) reads 3040 ohms at 68F.
Both readings are somewhat low but considering a 10% +/- tolerance (brings it to 3060 ohms at 70F) are they good enough?
Is checking it at 70F good enough or do I need to check them at operating temperatures of 190, 200 etc.?
