TypeXFan is an unknown quantity at this point
**update** ok after switching out the tps, and adjusting it to the proper voltage. I started the car up and drove it around....seemed to be running like normal, so I drove it to the gas station to fill up the tank since it was running empty. On the way home check engine light came on and started seeing idle fluctuations again, not as strong as before, but you can tell something was clearly going wrong.

Hoping that I wouldn't get another code 55(no malfunctions) I checked the ecu code, I got 2 codes, 13 and 45. 13 is Engine temperature sensor circuit and 45 is leaky injector. Code 45 is a old code that came up back when my injector #3 was shorting out, I'm assuming its coming up because the code was never erased. Code 13 is new, from what I'm reading up on it, it means I have a bad coolant temp sensor or connection and will cause my car to run rich, give me bad mpg, and even stall out the engine.

Anyone who has had experience with code 13 and can give me some helpful input; would be much appreciated. Thanks
