zI got a 94 escourt 1.9l. it has the same codes as are in the book for a 93 mustang so im hoping somone can help
zI have no power now and its even evident in the stupid things automatic having difficulty determining when to shift. my fuel consumption is now insane as well.
these are the two codes
179-Adaptive Fuel lean limit reached at part throttle, system rich
187-Injector Pulse-width lower than expected
now i can guess that its lean because there is really no power under load, but the whole system rich part has me confused.
also i dont understand why the injectors wouldn't be firing correctly.
please any help would be great

i just performed a cylinder head gasket replacement. but how would that cause the injectors to fire incorrectly?

Did you mark your injector harness so you didnt get them crossed when you reinstalled them?
no need. they are grey and black on this car...actually on my 'stang the are as well.

Loose screw, causing the gasket to be loose and not seal completely (loose gasket)
well a valve cover bolt broke on me, and theres only 3. could that do it? i didnt take nething else off

No, that would only cause an oil... wait... the PCV system isn't sealed now, so it might be a cause to a tiny bit of it... not sure though, ask someone who works with that engine

Maybe 20PSI, new computer, new 3" VAM, and some porting will make it faster
Did you replace the injecter seals? If your car continuously runs rich, you will ruin your cat. If your computer is trying to lean out, it sounds like you may have a fuel leak, thus the injector seals leaking.
the injector seals would cause an air leak around the injectors leaning the mixture. it could be a leaking injector but we first do the above (post 11) checks.
Running rough got codes
