if you have a tuner check and see what error codes you are getting. i am having another issue right now that i suspect is caused by this but cant be sure.
hi I don't have a tuner. Will see if I can get a coe reader somewhere - thanks for the suggestion as I hadn't considered it

Absolutely! It's good to know I've some sort of backup so Ford doesn't say I'm imagining things

Guys I have had the same thing happen twice now and I have electrical gremlins. I am taking the charge pipes off to see if any wires are getting rubbed through by the charge piping.

If you see my other thread I am having gremlins now as well and I think my ECM or PCM is dying. I'm not sure if the two issues are related.

AND it happened again tonight. Same situation.. Decelerating after an hour on the highway - 65-75 mph.

This time I'm calling the dealer

Again today. On the highway for 3 minutes then stalled on the offramp. This is getting worrisome. Definite call to the dealer tomorrow.

It sounds like whatever sensor or whatever is going bad is really about to fail; it's getting more frequent isn't it?

hi Rousch05, it definitely is. If I leave it too long it could be pretty bad.


Will keep you posted

I haven't had it happen since I cleared the plug I used to close up the IMRC vent. I didn't realize it was supposed to vent outside. Maybe something is obstructing yours and the IMRC valves aren't able to actuate properly and are causing the issue? I'm just spitballing here.

Possibly! I'll check on this - thanks for the suggestion
