Idle problem AGAIN!! NO WAY?
Im not gonna go through the 80 posts and B.S. that we have all suffered in the past weeks . So read the posts previous if you like. Last Thursday I got my 5.0 back after a new mass air sensor was deduced buy me and Ford tech. Drove car for 3 hours on and off but no long term idle in drive at a stop. Today while I was stuck in traffic cause NASCAR in town. IT HAPPENED, OH YES IT DID!!! Idle puked out after about ten minutes of idle in drive with foot on brake. It cost me $428 at dealership for 3 days of tech (I cant find it!) and a mass air sensor. You gotta be freakin kiddin me!! Guess it wasent the sensor. I figure that the only thing left is the computer. Went to parts store today and buy new one but I have to wait for it to get here in the morn. ($97 after I turned in my old one). Interesting that Ford does not make these units any longer. You can only buy them as remanufactured from parts store? Prob for the best. Ford would have prob. wanted $400. I will post back tomorrow after I put in new computer. DAMN, I cant believe this WILL NOT go away. To date this will put me at about $7 or 8 hundred in parts and labor and 6 weeks old.
