Fuel pumps on modern fuel injected cars are usually located inside the fuel tank.

If there is a driveability problem then I would worry about it. But, if there is a code saying there is a fault transmitted to the PCM but there is no other explanation, it could be a minor fault that doesn't require tearing the transmission down and rebuilding just yet.

• It's on the backside of the right head. To gain access to the EGR you will need to remove the airbox.. Then just a couple 8mm bolts to remove the vacuum hose off the EGR. The remove the two 13mm bolts that mount the EGR (from the back of the head). See diagram below.

• Hope this helps.

you can use needle nose pliers pull the hood release cable on inside car where cable broke from handle.needle nose pliers will help you enough to pull cable to open hood so you can replace fix hood release handle and cable.

What type of engine is it?

put gas in it

It is most likely a bad injector,the lean code is affirming the problem.

you could have a blown head, or intake gasket, Have a compression test done ,, that will tell the whole story , watch these 2 short videos http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QA7KVQq9vKA&feature=relmfu http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0huAd-CusBo&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PLAEAC4CC2E00FEBD2

LOOK UNDER HOOD AROUND RADIATOR AREA FOR LEAKS AND CHECK FOR LEAKING RADIATOR HOSES.CHECK TOP RADIATOR HOSE TO THERMOSTAT IF HOSE LEAKS THERE YOU WILL SEE A LOT OF SMOKE AND STEAM WHERE COOLANT SPRAYING ON HOT ENGINE.

Pull one door sensor at a time and test. They get compressed too far and eventually no longer open the circuit. If you find a switch compressed too far, just replace it...

Door switches are self adjusting, to allow for differences in jamb tolerance... Start with driver's door.

i would say your best bet is to clean out your idle air control valve. sounds like its getting stuck open or closed

you need to have three sensors checked on the transmission,output sensor,input sensor,and speed sensor,
one is not telling the computer your speed,so the computer keeps you in limp mode

I assume the blanked out word is short for transmission. The Concorde doesn't have a transmission drain plug; you'll have to drop the pan.

the bottom of the front of motor maybey external

First thing to do( and cheapest) is to replace you gas cap. If thats not the case, you can visually inspect alll of the evap hoses under the vehicle, and under the hood, however the easiest thin to do, is contact a garage that has a smoke tester, and they can pretty easily find the leak.

Where is it located? The TPS is found on the exterior of the throttle body on the opposite end of the throttle shaft to the accelerator linkage arm. It usually consists of a small black plastic unit with an electrical connector attached to it.

How does it work? The TPS is a variable resistor made up of an arc shaped carbon track with an applied voltage of 0 to 5 volts along its length and a sliding contact that picks up the voltage at any point along it. The device has three electrical connections, two provide the voltage range along the carbon track and the third (most often the middle connection) sends a voltage to the ECU in accord with the position of the sliding contact point on the arc. This siding contact arm is attached to the end of the throttle shaft. As the throttle shaft rotates, opening and closing the throttle plate, the sliding contact sweeps up and down the arced carbon track providing voltage readings to the ECU; 0 volts for closed to 5 volts for fully open.

When the engine is at idle the TPS output should signal the ECU that the throttle is closed (low volts) and therefore the ECU should either open the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve or (on some engines) engage the idle speed control motor to maintain the engine idle speed. Sometimes a micro contact switch on the throttle body exterior associated with the throttle shaft is used to detect and confirm when the throttle plate is fully closed.

How to check? The socket for electrical connection with the TPS has 3 pins, one for 'ground', one for 5 volts 'reference' and a third (generally the middle one) for 'signal' output. Back probe the signal pin in the connector to the TPS. Attach the positive lead of a voltmeter to the probe and measure the voltage output as the throttle plate is rotated. If working correctly the meter should show a voltage consistent with the throttle position from approximately 1 volt when closed and 5 volts when fully open. What is looked for is smooth voltage increase with throttle change. If there are drop outs in the throttle transition voltage signal or if there is no transition then the TPS is faulty.

How to fix? If the track is dirty causing drop outs, try cleaning it with residue-free electrical cleaning spray. If the track is worn it is perhaps easiest to replace the complete device. In some instances it may be possible to adjust the location of the central mount of the TPS contact arm along the throttle shaft by a few millimeters and in the process cause a fresh concentric region of track to be used.
