This is the second time I have had this problem. My emission control light is back on again. It came on before and there was some hesitation when pressing the gas pedal. The first time they replaced some part dealing with the gas filter. It is doing the same thing again. Is this a recurring problem with Ford Taurus?

Moisture in the dpfe sensor is causing my 2000 Ford Taurus wagon to run roughly at approx. 1500 rpms and occasionally the mil will light. If I dry it out it runs ok and the mil goes out after a few starts. I am concerned about the intake manifold explosions I have read about as well.
