    ...fords.....

    Can you give a better discription of how it dies? Does it just shut off like turning the key off? Does it spit and sputter and try to stay running?

    PM me for:
    Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
    Diesel repairs or performance products.

      Ignition module? Fuel pump?

      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

            if it put out a huge cloud i'm thinking it could be dumping fuel? would make sense on the throttle input dieing thing.

            but without looking at it i can't even begin to help as to what it is.

              Im with drifter on this one. Black clouds of smoke from the tailpipe usually mean its getting too much fuel(Rich). Leaking injector?

              Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
              Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
              Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
              Torque is how far you take the wall with you

                Pull codes and go from there.....

                sounds like an ecm, maf, or ignition. issue........ it wouldn't be an injector because it would only be down a cylinder.... still puff black but atleast run

                        Is this the 4-cyl or the V6? Why did he not go right back in the store and tell them they didn't fix the problem?

                            he went to pick it up after hours, he already charged to his crdit card and had a spare key. and yes everyone on fargostreet knows about ford/mazda partners....bp-08 educatiumed us on that...lol unfortunatly:icon_rr: and its a 2.0
