[Twisted1]

I pull #13 fuse prob goes away for 10 min then comes back. Oil level is good an when check engine light comes on it puts my car in safe mode where it want go past 4,000 rpm. Is the solenoid bad? What it looks like? Thanks in advance

Yeah I read them but I just need to know where it's located at. Someone have a pic?

Solenoid and pressure switch are bolted to the back of the head, next to the EGR valve.

From the front of the car, it would be passenger, rear of head.

I just took the top half apart and pulled that plunger out. It was kinda sludged up an caramelizes with old oil. I cleaned the parts up put them back, an took it for a spin. It ran fine for about 10 min then the check engine light came back on an went back in limp mode. Any thoughts? Low voltage?
