Hello, I just bought a ford taurus and the engine seems to be having a slight rpm issue. When at idel the engine is constantly fluxuating, not very much just about 200 to 300 rpms and the exhaust smells like fuel. I had the engine code read and it said that the EGR valve came up with an error and it was unable to control the RPM. I found a broken vacuum hose on the EGR and replaced that I have also replaced the TPS (which had an error as well ) and IAC valve but that did not fix it. I am thinking possibley just a tune up (plugs wires, distributor cap, rotor) Or a vaccum leak and I correct? Thanks

Make sure to check the flexible hose from the mass air flow sensor to the throttle body for cracks or tears, make sure the hose that goes from the same flex hose to the front valve cover hard plastic line is connected and not cracked let me know what ya come up with im curious while your at it check all of your vacuum lines.
