The SES light is out!
First a little background. There's a test you can do on an automatic transmission car to judge engine performance without driving it. Just push the brake pedal, put it in gear, and give it some gas. This car had sounded OK right after startup, but after a little while, it sounded like like it was struggling when I did that. That means that after closed loop mode started, it was having trouble. My scanner verified that the trouble was in closed loop mode.
You may recall that among the errors I got with my scanner were EST failure and camshaft position sensor failure. Those errors had come back. Well, EST is Electronic Spark Timing, which means the ICM. So I bought both a new ICM and camshaft position sensor. I got the cheapest ones Rock Auto had, just in case they weren't needed. They came today.
First I replaced the ICM. No change. Then I replaced the camshaft position sensor. Bingo! The SES light went out, and performance is normal.
I guess that means that Lee (previous owner) was driving the car around with a bad camshaft position sensor, and reduced performance.
