Is this a lost cause it's costing me a fortune and never had the recall on rear axle checkd ford really messed up with this pos
Still broke down looking for the imrc linkage rods not cheap and can't find em for my van manifold was completely clogged with carbon buildup don't know if it will ever run just paid the insurance to and got it legal plus 600 to get intake cleaned up and a letter for the recall on the axle 16 recalls never been serviced once its a lost cause I feel only hads it a year
My car has no starting problems but, after a while, it suddenly stalls and nothing electrical in the vehicle will start again. I need to change it to Parking for the engine to start and, even sometimes, this is not enough and it stalls back after 20-30 meters and I have to do the Parking thing once more. It was already scanned but nothing could be found.
This is an ordinary failure and it is as simple as the car's voltage regulator. It has some coal pieces inside of it which wear out. All you have to do is change either the voltage regulator or simply this coal pieces I'm telling you about.
When starting the car, the revolutions are around 2000 per minute and it takes quite a long time, around 15 seconds or more, to desaccelerate. This happens no matter whether I start it when cold or warm. Even more, when the vehicle is stopped, in a traffic light for example, and in Drive mode, rpm range between 500 and 900, and the engine sometimes stalls. An interesting detail is that, when connecting the air conditioning, revolutions stabilize. IAC, EGR and TPS valves have been checked and all their signals seem to be right. Vacuum hoses have also been checked but the problem remains. Does somebody know anything about it?
When I have the Van in gear it won't run smooth and stalls just changed spark plugs and wires and put the manifold rods back on still having idle problem?
Theft light doesnt do its on for 3 seconds then off approval cycle engine wont crank then after trying it for a few minutes then evreything will work fine till next morning then problem returns
