Codes are 32 and 34. I checked the solenoids which switch and vent vacuum to the egr. The all click when 12 volt is applied. In run mode 1 side of the contacts is 12 volt. Are they all switched by the eec? If so it lieves me with wiring and the eec.

Scott worked on a CFI motor that gave him fits. Turns out it was bad (almost new) plug wires.
Let me find that thread.

34 is egr valve not closing fully, 32 is over-closed. Since its basically impossible to have both at the same time, either that sensor is bad/wrong, or you're getting old stored codes. Is this the engine running test, or the engine not running test?

IF it's the wrong one that could I happen I would think...

I have been measuring and looking everywhere. I could not find a thing.
I went back to basics and found a plug wire with a core that was broken at the tip of the connector at the distributor side, it gave a spark there and not at the plug: see picture.
Fixed it: stumble gone!
Thanks for everyones help!
groetjes,
Adam

Yea, EFI is much more efficient, but CFI works well for what it is.

Glad you fixed it. I can't be the only one who thinks it's cool that there's an 85 CP in the Netherlands! I wonder what the story is behind that car.
The car was owned in the US by a german professor. He returned to germany and took with him the CP. The car was barely used and sat in a shed for years. A neighbor bought the car. He needed money and I bought it last year.
I always loved american cars and like to work on them. I needed a good replacement for my daily and this one came up. It wil get a propane conversion to make it more economical.
I always have american cars, they are very rare overhere, US Fords are not sold by dealers, only by special interest import.
We have a lot of people who for a hobby own an american car.
I now own a 1986 Mustang GT convertible and the CP. I'm looking for a 1969 Mach 1 project....

Adam
