    2004 ford escape code p0340 and p0174
    At first it only gave me code p0340 then I changed the cam and crank sensor disconnected the.battery for 10 min. And turned it on didn't accelarate or turn anything on for 3 min. And still same side affects. Witch are squeaky belt very bad engine vibration hard to start . Stalls and very slow accelaration. Can't use the a/c on high or it'll stall my wife's car please help

    For the P0174, check for a vacuum leak; e.g. hoses after the MAF Sensor and around the UIM. Also, make sure you have changed the fuel filter in the last 25,000 miles. A clogged fuel filter can cause a lean fuel situation. If the problem persists, focus on the MAF Sensor. Should you end up replacing it, go with a new sensor--remanufactured MAF Sensors have been problematic.

    UIM=Upper Intake Manifold. Sounds like this is your problem and it needs to be replaced.

    MAF Sensor voltages are nearly impossible to test. Best to use an advanced scan tool.

    I replaced all intake manifold gaskets and some vacuum hoses and now I only have the p0340 code it still stalls and all but in idle it sounds better the before

    Try clearing all old codes with your code reader. Also, check the wiring and connectors going to the sensors.
